Page 17

WARNING

The engine will shut off if the reverse ground speed pedal is depressed while the PTO is on and the RMO has not been activated. The operator should always turn the PTO off prior to driving across on roads, paths or any area that maybe used by other vehicles. Sudden loss of drive could create a hazard

WARNING

Mowing in reverse can be hazardous to bystanders. Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Never activate RMO if children are present. Children are often attracted to the unit and the mowing activity.

MOWING IN REVERSE

If an operator chooses to mow in reverse, the RMO sys- tem can be used. To use the Reverse Mowing Option (RMO) turn the RMO key after the PTO is engaged. The L.E.D. light will illuminate, and the operator can then mow in reverse. Each time the PTO is disengaged the RMO needs to be reactivated if desired. The key should be removed to restrict access to the RMO feature.

ATTACHMENT OPERATION IN REVERSE

If an operator chooses to operate a PTO driven attach- ment in reverse, the RMO system can be used. To use the Reverse Mowing Option (RMO) turn the RMO key after the PTO is engaged. The L.E.D. light will illumi- nate, and the operator can then operate the attachment in reverse. Each time the PTO is disengaged the RMO needs to be reactivated if desired. The key should be removed to restrict access to the RMO feature.
