Operator Presence Control (OPC)
Levers
When you squeeze the OPC levers against the
handles, the OPC system senses that the operator
is in the normal operating position. When you
release the OPC levers, the OPC system senses
that the operator has left the normal operating
position, and the system will stop the engine if
either the speed control lever is not in the neutral
position or the blade control (PTO) switch is
engaged.
Blade Control Switch (PTO)
The blade control switch (PTO) is used to engage
the electric clutch to drive the mower blades with
the OPC levers pressed against the handles. Pull
the switch up to engage the blades. To disengage
the blades, briefly release the OPC levers.
Ignition Switch
This switch is used to start the mower engine and
has three positions: Start, Run and Off.
Speed Control Lever
This machine has a variable speed control with a
neutral position. This controls how fast or slow
the machine will travel forward.
Drive Levers
Release drive levers to engage forward traction
operation and squeeze the levers until an increase
in force is felt to go into neutral position and
continue to squeeze to go in reverse. Squeeze
right side of drive lever to turn right and left side
to turn left.
Neutral Lock
Squeeze drive levers back until an increase in force
is felt and move locks to the rear for neutral lock.
