c) Adjust brakes by adjusting wingnut on the upper end of each brake rod.
Tighten the wingnut until the brakes engage when the drive levers are
squeezed enough allow the neutral lock/park brake latches to be placed into
the "park brake" position. See Figure 7.
d) Check for correct adjustment:
Place the drive levers in the "park brake" position. The mower should not
move forward or backward. If it does, tighten the wingnuts.
Place the drive levers in the "neutral lock" position. The mower should
move forward and backward freely. If it does not, loosen the wingnuts.
NOTE: The neutral lock/park brake latches must be easily moved into the
park brake position; if not the brake linkages must be adjusted again.
3.12 Route the long unattached wiring harness lead, up the left hand side of the handle
and connect the connector on the end of the shorter lead to the key switch.
Connect the two flag terminals that are on the longer lead (in any order) to the
operator presence control switch terminals underneath the control console.
Fasten the lead to the handle with two small wire ties from the bolt bag, one at the
upper end of the handle next to the console, and one at the very lower end of the
handle where it attaches to the fuel tank support. Fasten the lead to the small hole
in the channel under the console using another small tie from the bolt bag.
3.13 If machine is shipped without muffler installed, install muffler with hardware
provided.
3.14 Service Engine: Refer to Engine Owner's Manual.
3.15 GREASE UNIT: NOTE: UNIT IS NOT GREASED AT THE FACTORY.
Refer to 5.1.13, for locations and grease amounts.

3.17 Perform any needed adjustments as outlined in the Adjustment Section.

4. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

4.1 Controls

4.1.1 Operator Presence Control (OPC) Levers: Located on the upper handle assembly
directly above the handle grips. When these levers are depressed, the OPC
system senses that the operator is in the normal operator's position. When
the levers are released, the OPC system senses that the operator has moved
from the normal operating position and will kill the engine if either the
transmission shift lever is not in the neutral position or the PTO is engaged.
4.1.2 Drive Levers: Located on each side of the upper handle assembly directly below
the handle grips. See Figure 9. These levers individually control the clutching
action of the wheel drive belts and the brakes. When the drive levers are all of the
way out, the brakes disengage and the wheel drive belts engage.
