operator's seat.
DeckHeight Index
The deck height index consists of six index notches
located on the front/right of the seat box frame. Each
notch corresponds to a 1/2"change in the deck height
position ranging from 1-1/2"at the lowest notch to 4
inches at the highest notch.
DeckLift Handle
The deck lift handle is located on the front/right of
the seat box frame, and is used to raise and lower the
mower deck.
Pull the handle to the left out of the index notch and
push downward to lower the deck, or pull upward to
raise the deck. When the desired height is attained,
move the lift handle to the right until fully in the index
notch.
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.
