LCD

Located in the center of the tractor's console, the systems indicator monitor records, and displays on its LCD, hours of tractor operation whenever the ignition key is rotated out of the STOP position.

The Indicator Monitor will also remind the operator of maintenance intervals for changing the engine oil. The LCD will alternately flash the recorded hours, "CHG" and "OIL" for five minutes, after every 50 hours of recorded operation elapse. The maintenance interval lasts for two hours (from 50-52, 100-102, 150-152, etc.). The LCD will also flash as described above for five minutes every time the tractor's engine has been started during this maintenance interval. Before the interval expires, change the crankcase oil as instructed on page 23 of this manual.

CruiseControlLever

The cruise control lever is located on

steering wheel. Push the cruise

control lever downward while

the tractor dash panel, below the_i_1 traveling forward at a desired speed.

While holding the lever down, release pressure from the drive pedal.

pedal or the drive pedal to deactivate cruise control.

Refer to page 17 for detailed instructions regarding cruise control.

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.
