Shutting Off the Engine
CAUTION
Children or bystanders may be injured if they
move or attempt to operate the machine while
it is unattended.
Always remove the key and engage the
parking brake when leaving the machine
unattended.
Let the engine idle at slow throttle for 60 seconds
before turning the switch off.

Important:
Make sure that the fuel-shutoff
valve is closed before transporting or storing
the machine to prevent fuel leakage. Engage
the parking brake before transporting. Remove
the key as the fuel pump may run and cause the
battery to lose charge.

Driving the Machine
The drive wheels turn independently, powered by
hydraulic motors on each axle. You can turn 1 side
g036839
in reverse while you turn the other forward, causing
the machine to spin rather than turn. This greatly
improves the machine maneuverability but may
require some time for you to adapt to how it moves.
The throttle control regulates the engine speed as
measured in rpm (revolutions per minute). Place
the throttle control in the F
performance. Always operate in the full throttle
position when mowing.
