Transmission Lockout Levers; Hourmeter; Light Switch (For Optional Lights) - Walker Model MS (13 HP) Owner's Manual

Operating Instructions

Transmission Lockout Levers

The transmission lockout levers disengage the
hydrostatic transmissons. By lifting the lever on top
of the transmission and locking it into place with the
lockout cam, the hydrostatic transmissions are
released to permit freewheeling. By releasing the
cam and lowering the lever, the transmissions are
engaged for normal operation. The transmission
lever in the LOCKOUT position is used to enable
moving the machine without the engine running
(e.g., for service). Refer to TRANSMISSION LOCK-
OUT in this section for operating instructions.
NOTE: The transmission plunger on the side of the
transmission case (activated by the LOCKOUT
LEVER) must be completely released during opera-
tion of the mower, otherwise operation of the
transmission will be erratic.

Hourmeter

The hourmeter, which is located on the left front of
the body, displays operating time accumulated
while the ignition switch is in the ON position.
The hourmeter provides maintenance reminders
after certain hours of operation. The hourmeter
screen will start flashing the reminder one hour prior
to the recommended interval and will continue until
one hour after the recommended interval (two
hours). The hourmeter does not have a manual
reset function.

* These intervals reflect the actual time that the
reminder will flash (one hour prior to and one
hour after the recommended interval).
** This reminder is only used one time.
*** In normal operating conditions, oil changes in
100-hour intervals are acceptable. Walker and
the engine manufacturers recommend engine
oil changes every 50 hours in extremely dirty
or dusty conditions or for units with less than
100 hours annual use.
