Turn ignition key to “STOP” position and remove key. Always remove key when leaving riding mower to prevent unauthor- ized use.

IMPORTANT: Leaving the ignition switch in any position other than "STOP" will cause the battery to discharge and go dead.

NOTE: Under certain conditions when riding mower is standing idle with the engine run- ning, hot engine exhaust gases may cause “browning” of grass. To eliminate this pos- sibility, always stop engine when stopping riding mower on grass areas.

CAUTION: Always stop riding mower completely, as described above, before leaving the operator's position.
