Releasing the Transmission

If the machine becomes disabled with the motor brake on,
you can disengage the drum from the transmission to allow
the machine to be maneuvered.
1. On the right rear corner of the machine, locate the
traction engage/disengage lever next to the drive
housing drum (Figure 36).

2. Rotate the lever rearward to disengage the transmission
from the drum.
Important: Make sure to push the lever from the
front to prevent your hand from being struck by
the spring loaded lever.
3. Move the machine as needed
Important: If possible, do not tow the machine. If
it is absolutely necessary, do not tow at any speed
greater than 4.8 kph (3 mph); always disengage
the transmission from the drum. Failing to do so
will likely cause damage to the machine, especially
the electrical components.
4. When finished, rotate the lever forward to engage the
transmission to the drum.
Note: The service brake is still operational with the
transmission disengaged from the drum.
