Deck Lift Pedal
The deck lift pedal is located on the right front corner of the foot
platform, and is used to raise and lower the mower deck.
To raise the mowing deck to the transport position, push the
upper part of the pedal all the way forward and place the clevis
pin in furthest hole from you and secure with the cotter pin.
To lower the deck, remove the clevis pin and reinsert it in the
desired cutting height and secure with cotter pin.
RH and LH Drive Control Levers
The RH and LH control levers are located on each side of the
operator's seat. These hinged levers pivot outward to open
space to permit the operator to either sit in the tractor seat, or to
dismount the tractor. The levers must be fully opened out and in
the neutral position to start the tractor engine.
Each lever controls the respective RH or LH transmission.
Consequently, these levers control all of the movements of the
tractor. Driving and steering utilizing these control levers is
quite different from conventional tractors, and will take some
practice to master. Refer to Operation for instructions on using
the control levers.
