The ignition switch starts and stops the engine, it has three positions:

OFF

Stops the engine and shuts off the

 

electrical system.

RUN

Allows the engine to run and powers the

 

electrical system.

START

Cranks the engine for starting.

NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN posi- tion with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.

Depressing the brake pedal applies the tractor brake.

Ground Speed Lever

The tractor’s forward ground speed is controlled by the forward ground speed control lever. The tractor’s reverse ground speed is controlled by the reverse ground speed control pedal.

Moving the lever forward will increase ground speed. Note that the further forward the lever is moved, the faster the tractor will travel.

Parking Brake

The parking brake knob is used to lock the parking brake when the tractor is stopped. Fully depressing the brake pedal and pulling up on the knob engages the parking brake. Refer to page 10 for a full explanation of parking brake functions.

Attachment Lift Control Lever

When using the mower deck, lift the deck off the ground while transporting to and from the job site. DO NOT cut with the mower in the raised, transport position.

Reverse Mowing Option (RMO)

The Reverse Mowing Option allows for mowing (or use of other PTO driven attachments) while traveling in reverse. If you choose to mow or operate another attachment in reverse, turn the RMO key after the PTO is engaged. The L.E.D. light will illuminate, and the opera- tor can then mow in reverse. Each time the PTO is dis- engaged the RMO needs to be reactivated if desired.
