OPERATION
The operation of any tractor
can result in foreign
objects thrown
into the eyes, which can
result in severe eye damage.
Always wear safety glasses or eye shields while operating
your tractor
or performing any adjustments or repairs.
We recommend standard safety
glasses or a wide vision safety mask worn over spectacles.
HOW TO USE YOUR TRACTOR
TO SET PARKING
BRAKE
(See Fig. 4)
Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence sens-
ing switch.
When engine is running, any attempt by the
operator to leave the seat without first setting the parking
brake will shut off the engine.
•
Depress brake pedal (B) all the way down and hold.
•
Pull parking brake lever (C) up and hold, release pres-
sure from brake pedal (B), then release parking brake
lever. Pedal should remain in brake position.
Make
sure parking brake will hold tractor secure.

STOPPING
(See Fig. 5)
MOWER BLADES -
•
To stop mower blades, place attachment clutch control
in the "DISENGAGED"
position (r_).
•
Turn ignitionkey (F) to "STOP" position and remove key.
Always remove key when leaving tractor to prevent
unauthorized use.
•
Never
use the choke to stop the engine.
IMPORTANT:
LEAVING
THE
IGNITION
SWITCH
IN ANY
POSITION OTHER THAN "STOP" WILL CAUSE THE BATTERY
TO DISCHARGE
AND GO DEAD.
NOTE: Under certain conditions when tractor is standing
idle with the engine running, hot engine exhaust gases
may cause "browning" of grass. To eliminate this possibility,
always stop engine when stopping tractor on grass areas.
&
CAUTION:
Always stop tractor
corn=
pletely, as described
above, and set
parking brake before leaving the opera=
tot's position.
TO USE THROTTLE
CONTROL
(D) (See Fig. 6)
Always operate engine at full speed (fast).
•
Operating engine at less than full speed (fast) reduces
the engine's operating efficiency.
•
Full speed (fast) offers the best mower performance.
