engine too fast may cause engine damage. Let engine
idle for about a minute.

^^WARNING
Never operate on slopes greater than 30 percent
(16.7°) which is a rise of three feet vertically in 10 feet
horizontally. When operating on slopes that are greater
than 15 percent (8.5°) but less than 30 percent use rear
wheel weights (see your dealer). Select slow ground
speed before driving onto slope. Mow UP and DOWN
the slope, never across the face, use caution when
changing directions and DO NOT START OR STOP.
WARNING
To reduce fire hazard, keep the engine, tractor and
mower free of grass, leaves and excess grease.
Refer to figure 11. Depressing pedal from position A to B
disengages transmission drive. Depressing pedal further
from position B to C will also apply tractor brake. Parking
brake is applied at position C when pedal is latched over foot
rest as shown in figure 11.
