ENGAGING THE PARKING BRAKE

To engage the parking brake:

• Fully depress the brake pedal and hold it there while

gently pushing the parking brake button inward.

• Hold the parking brake button in while removing

your foot from the brake pedal.

• Once engaged, the parking brake button and the

brake pedal will lock in the “down” position.

To disengage the parking brake:

• Slightly depress the brake pedal.

NOTE: The parking brake must be engaged if the

operator leaves the seat with the engine running or the

engine will automatically shut off.

DRIVING ON SLOPES

Refer to the SLOPE GAUGE on page 7 to help

determine slopes where you may not operate safely.

WARNING: Do not mow on inclines with a

slope in excess of 15 degrees (a rise of

approximately 2-1/2 feet every 10 feet). The

tractor could overturn and cause serious

injury.

• Mow up and down slopes, NEVER across.

• Exercise extreme caution when changing direction

on slopes.

• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden

objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine.

Tall grass can hide obstacles.

• Avoid turns when driving on a slope. If a turn must

be made, turn down the slope. Turning up a slope

greatly increases the chance of a roll over.

• Avoid stopping when driving up a slope. If it is

necessary to stop while driving up a slope, start up

smoothly and carefully to reduce the possibility of

flipping the tractor over backward.

SETTING THE CRUISE CONTROL

NOTE:

The cruise control feature should only be

utilized while traveling in the forward direction.

• Place shift lever in FORWARD position, then slowly

depress the drive pedal until the desired speed is

achieved.

• Lightly depress the cruise control button.

• While continuing to hold the cruise button in, lift your

foot from the drive pedal (you should feel the cruise

latch engage).

• Once engaged, the cruise control button and the

drive pedal will lock in the “down” position, and the

tractor will maintain the same forward speed.

NOTE: Cruise control can not be engaged at the

tractor’s fastest ground speed. If the operator should

attempt to do so, the tractor will automatically

decelerate to the fastest optimal mowing ground speed.

Disengage the cruise control using one of the following

methods:

• Lightly depress either the brake pedal or the drive

pedal.

• To change the direction of travel to reverse when

operating with cruise control, depress the brake

pedal to disengage the cruise control and bring the

tractor to a complete stop. Then place the shift lever

in the REVERSE position and depress the drive

pedal.

OPERATING THE HEADLIGHTS

To turn the tractor’s headlights on:

• Start the engine following the instructions earlier in

this section.

• Turn the key one notch counterclockwise into the

On/Lights position of the ignition switch. Refer to

Figure 9.

To turn the tractor’s headlights off:

• Turn the key either into the On position (to leave the

engine running) or the Off position (to shut the

engine off). Refer to Figure 9.

NOTE: Never move the key into the Start position

while the engine is running. Doing so may cause

damage to your engine’s electric starter.

ENGAGING THE PTO

Engaging the PTO transfers power to the cutting deck or

other (separately available) attachments. To engage

the PTO, proceed as follows:

• Move the throttle control lever to the FAST (rabbit)

position.

Models with manual PTO

• Grasp the PTO lever and pivot it all the way forward

into the engaged (ON) position.

Models with electric PTO

• Pull the PTO knob outward into the engaged (ON)

position. See Figure 11.

• Keep the throttle lever in the FAST (rabbit) position

for the most efficient use of the cutting deck or other

(separately available) attachments.

Figure 11

• To disengage the PTO, move the lever towards rear

or push the PTO button in. This will cut off power to

the deck or other attachments.
