Reverse
Mowing Option (RMO
TM)
Stopping
the Tractor
and Engine
WARNING
Mowing in reverse can be hazardous to
bystanders. Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is
not alert to the presence of children. Never activate the
RMO if children are present. Children are often attracted
to the unit and the mowing activity.
WARNING
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable
and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or
death.
• Do not choke the carburetor to stop the engine.
The Reverse Mowing Option (RMO) allows the operator
to mow in reverse (see Features and Controls).
To
activate, turn the RMO key after the PTO is engaged.
The L.E.D. light will illuminate, and the operator can then
mow in reverse. Each time the PTO is engaged the RMO
needs to be reactivated if desired. The key should be
removed to restrict access to the RMO.
Pushing the Tractor
by Hand
1. Disengage the PTO and turn the engine off (see
Features
and Controls).
2. Pull out the lever approximately 2-3/8" (6 cm) to
release the transmission (A, Figure 6).
3. The tractor can now be pushed by hand.
WARNING
Towing the unit will cause transmission damage.
Do not use another vehicle to push or pull this unit. Do not
actuate the transmission release lever while the engine is
running.

Move the throttle control to the SLOW position. Turn
the key switch to the OFF position. Remove the

equipped, to the closed position.
