DRIVING THE TRACTOR

CAUTION

Avoid sudden starts, excessive speed and

sudden stops.

WARNING

Do not leave the seat of the tractor without

disengaging the PTO and engaging the brake

pedal lock. If leaving the tractor unattended,

turn the ignition key off and remove the key.

NOTE

When using PTO driven equipment, best

performance is achieved with the throttle lever

in the “FAST” position.

1. Depress the brake pedal to release the brake ped-

al lock and let the pedal up. Move the throttle lever

to the position where the engine operates best for

the load to be handled (usually full throttle).

2. Driving with forward or reverse pedals.

CAUTION

Do not use the forward or reverse control

pedals to change the direction of travel when

the tractor is in motion. Use the brake pedal to

bring the tractor to a stop before depressing

either the forward or reverse control pedal.

a. To move forward, slowly depress the forward

control pedal until the desired speed is

achieved.

b. To move in reverse, check that the area be-

hind is clear then fully depress the reverse

control pedal. Always look down and behind

before and while backing up.

3. Using the cruise control lever.

NOTE

The cruise control feature can only be operated

in the forward direction.

a. Slowly depress the forward control pedal until

the desired speed is achieved.

b. Lightly push the cruise control lever downward

as far as possible and hold in this position.

c. While continuing to hold the cruise lever down,

lift your foot from the forward control pedal

(you should feel the cruise latch engage).

d. If properly engaged, the cruise lever and for-

ward control pedal should lock in the down po-

sition, and the tractor will maintain the same

forward speed.

e. Disengage the cruise control using one of the

following methods:

• Depress the brake pedal to disengage the

cruise control and stop the tractor.

• Lightly depress the forward control pedal.

• Lift the cruise control lever upward.

NOTE

Although not recommended, depressing the

reverse pedal will also disengage the cruise

control.

f. To change to the reverse direction when oper-

ating with cruise control, depress the brake

pedal to disengage the cruise control and stop

the tractor; then depress the reverse control

pedal.

DRIVING ON SLOPES

Refer to the SLOPE GAUGE on page 55 to help deter-

mine 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.

WARNING

Operate the tractor up and down slopes, never

across slopes. Always drive up or down the face

of a slope. Do not drive so that the tractor may

tip over sideways .

Before operating the tractor on any slope, walk the

slope to look for possible hazards such as rocks.

mounds, ruts, stumps or other surface irregularities

which could cause the tractor to overturn.
