Stopping The Machine; Mowing In Reverse; Adjusting The Height-Of-Cut - Toro TimeCutter SW 4200 Operator's Manual

Stopping the Machine

To stop the machine, release the traction-control pedal,
disengage the blade-control switch, ensure the throttle is in
the fast positions, set the parking brake and turn the ignition
key to off.
Note: Remember to remove the key from the ignition switch.
WARNING
Children or bystanders may be injured if they
move or attempt to operate the mower while it is
unattended.
Always remove the ignition key and set the parking
brake when leaving the machine unattended, even
if just for a few minutes.

Mowing in Reverse

The machine has an interlock feature that prevents the mower
deck from mowing while the machine is traveling in reverse.
If you shift into reverse with the PTO engaged, the PTO
will stop. If you need to mow while in reverse gear, you can
temporarily deactivate this interlock.
Note: Do not mow while backing up unless it is absolutely
necessary.
DANGER
A child or bystander could be backed over by a
riding mower with blades engaged and cause
serious personal injury or death.
• Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary.
• Always look backward and down before backing
up.
• Use the KeyChoice switch only if you are certain
no children or other bystanders will appear in
the mowing area.
• Always remove both the ignition and KeyChoice
keys and put them in a safe place out of the
reach of children or unauthorized users when
leaving the unit unattended.
If you are certain that you can safely mow or operate an
attachment in reverse, complete the following procedure:
1. Insert the KeyChoice key into the KeyChoice switch
(Figure 6).
2. Engage the PTO.
3. Turn the KeyChoice key clockwise until it stops and
release it.
Note: A red light illuminates on the console to serve
as a reminder that the interlock has been deactivated.
4. Perform the mowing.
5. When finished mowing, remove the KeyChoice key
(Figure 6).
Note: Once you deactivate the interlock, it stays in
this mode—with your mower blade or PTO powered
attachment operating whenever you back up—and the
console light stays on until you either disengage the
PTO or turn off the engine.

Adjusting the Height-of-Cut

Note: The transport position is the highest height-of-cut
position or cutting height 115 mm (4.5 inches) as shown in
