Driving Backward
1. Move the levers to the center, un-locked
position.
2. To go backward, slowly pull the motion control
levers rearward (Figure 16).
To go straight, apply equal pressure to both
motion control levers (Figure 16).
To turn, release pressure on the motion control
lever toward the direction you want to turn
(Figure 16).
To stop, push the motion control levers to the
neutral position.
Stopping the Machine
To stop the machine, move the traction control
levers to neutral and move to locked position,
disengage the power take off (PTO), and turn the
ignition key to off.
Set the parking brake when you leave the machine;
refer to Setting the Parking Brake. Remember to
remove the key from the ignition switch.
Children or bystanders may be injured if
they move or attempt to operate the tractor
while it is unattended.
Always remove the ignition key and set the
parking brake when leaving the machine
unattended, even if just for a few minutes.
Adjusting the Height-of-Cut
The height-of-cut is adjusted from 1-1/2 to 5 inch
(38 to 127 mm) in 1/4 inch (6 mm) increments
by relocating the clevis pin into different hole
locations.
1. Raise the height-of-cut lever to the transport
position (also the 5 inch (127 mm) cutting
height position) (Figure 17).

2. To adjust, remove the clevis pin from the
height-of-cut bracket (Figure 17).
3. Select a hole in the height-of-cut bracket
corresponding to the height-of-cut desired
and, insert the clevis pin (Figure 17).
4. Move the lever to the selected height.
Adjusting the Anti-Scalp
Rollers
Whenever you change the height-of-cut, it is
recommended to adjust the height of the anti-scalp
rollers.
1. Disengage the PTO, move the motion control
levers to the neutral locked position and set
the parking brake.
2. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for
all moving parts to stop before leaving the
operating position.
3. After adjusting the height-of-cut, adjust the
rollers by removing the flange nut, bushing,
spacer, and bolt (Figure 18 , Figure 19 and
Figure 20 ).
Note: The two middle rollers will not have a
spacer (Figure 19).
4. Select a hole so the anti-scalp roller is
positioned to the nearest corresponding
height-of-cut desired.
