With machine on level surface and with cool engine, remove radiator cap (under
hood) and add a 50/50 mix of water and Dex-Cool© extended life coolant until liquid
level is as high as possible without overflowing. Reinstall radiator cap, making sure
that the cap is completely seated by pressing down firmly while turning until the cap
stops. Add 50/50 coolant mix to overflow bottle on the left side of the engine as
required to bring the level up to the indicator line on the bottle.

Cool© can be identified by its orange color.

4.1 CONTROLS

4.1.1 Familiarize yourself with all controls before operating the mower.
4.1.2 Motion Control Levers: Located on each side of the console. The left lever
controls the flow of hydraulic oil from the left hydrostatic pump to the left drive
wheel motor. The right lever controls the flow of hydraulic oil from the right
hydrostatic pump to the right drive wheel motor.
IMPORTANT: To begin movement (forward or backward) the operator must
be in the seat, the brake lever must be disengaged (pushed down) before
the motion control levers can be moved in or the engine will kill.
When levers are centered in the T-slot the drive system is in the neutral position.
With levers moved out in the T-slot the drive system is in the neutral lock
position (See Fig. 6).
By moving both levers an equal amount forward or back from the neutral position
the machine can be caused to move forward or backward in a straight line.
Movement of the left lever forward will cause the left drive wheel to rotate in a
forward direction. Movement of the right lever forward will cause the right
