SECTION 5: OPERATING YOUR LAWN TRACTOR

Safety Interlock Switches

This tractor is equipped with a safety interlock system

for the protection of the operator. If the interlock system

should ever malfunction, do not operate the tractor.

Contact an authorized service dealer.

• The safety interlock system prevents the engine

from cranking or starting unless the parking brake is

engaged, and the PTO (Blade Engage) knob (or

lever) is in the disengaged (OFF) position.

• The engine will automatically shut off if the operator

leaves the seat before engaging the parking brake.

• The engine will automatically shut off if the operator

leaves the tractor’s seat with the PTO (Blade

Engage) lever in the engaged (ON) position,

regardless of whether the parking brake is

engaged.

• The engine will automatically shut off if the operator

engages the PTO with the parking brake ON.

• With the ignition key in the NORMAL MOWING

position, the engine will automatically shut off if the

PTO (Blade Engage) lever is moved into the

engaged (ON) position with the shift lever in

Reverse.

WARNING: Do not operate the tractor if the

interlock system is malfunctioning. This

system was designed for your safety and

protection.

Reverse Caution Mode

WARNING: Use extreme caution while

operating the tractor in the REVERSE

CAUTION MODE. Always look down and

behind before and while backing. Do not

operate the tractor when children or others

are around. Stop the tractor immediately if

someone enters the area.

The REVERSE CAUTION MODE position of the key

switch module allows the tractor to be operated in

reverse with the blades (PTO) engaged.

IMPORTANT: Mowing in reverse is not recommended.

To use the REVERSE CAUTION MODE:

IMPORTANT:

The operator MUST be seated in the

tractor seat.

1. Start the engine as previously instructed in this

Operator’s Manual.

2. Turn the key from the NORMAL MOWING

(Green) position to the REVERSE CAUTION

MODE (Yellow) position of the key switch module.

See Figure 8.

3. Depress the REVERSE PUSH BUTTON (Orange,

Triangular Button) at the top, right corner of the key

switch module. The red indicator light at the top, left

corner of the key switch module will be ON while

activated. See Figure 8.

4. Once activated (indicator light ON), the tractor can

be driven in reverse with the cutting blades (PTO)

engaged.

5. Always look down and behind before and while

backing to make sure no children are around.

6. After resuming forward motion, return the key to the

NORMAL MOWING position.

IMPORTANT:

The REVERSE CAUTION MODE will

remain activated until:

a. The key is placed in either the NORMAL

MOWING position or STOP position.

b. The operator engages the parking brake by

fully depressing the brake pedal and holding

it down while moving the speed control lever

into the PARKING BRAKE position.
