RAISE THE ROLLOVER PROTECTION
STRUCTURE (ROPS)
IMPORTANT: The roll bar is an integral and
effective safety device. Keep the roll bar in
the raised and locked position when
operating the mower. Lower the roll bar
temporarily only when absolutely necessary.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Move both control levers to the neutral
position.
2. Pull the parking brake lever rearward to
engage the parking brake.
3. Push in (down) on the PTO switch to the
"disengage" position.
4. Place the throttle midway between the
"SLOW" and "FAST" positions.
5. On a cold engine, pull the choke lever up
into the "ON" position.
On a warm engine, leave the choke in the
"OFF" position.
6. Turn ignition switch to the "START" position.
Release the switch as soon as the engine
starts.
IMPORTANT: Do Not crank the engine
continuously for more than ten seconds
at a time. If the engine does not start,
allow a 60 second cool-down period
between starting attempts. Failure to
follow these guidelines can burn out the
starter motor.
7. If the choke is in the "ON" position,
gradually return choke to the "OFF"
position as the engine warms up.
