If the Brake light or PTO light illuminates when attempting to start the unit, proceed as follows:

Brake — Engage the parking brake.

PTO — Move the PTO lever into the disengaged (Blade Stop) position.

It is normal for the Oil light and the Battery light to illuminate while the engine is cranking, but if either illuminates while the engine is running, proceed as follows:

Oil— Stop the tractor immediately and check the crankcase oil level as instructed in the Engine Owner’s Manual included with your unit. Add oil as required.

Battery— If this light illuminate’s while the engine is running, it indicates that the battery is in need of a charge OR that the engine’s charging system is not generating sufficient amperage. Refer to the MAINTENANCE section of this manual for the proper battery charging procedure or have the engine’s charging system checked by a authorized dealer.

On units so equipped, the ammeter measures the electrical output of the engine’s charging system. Under normal operating conditions, with the engine at full throttle, the ammeter’s needle should measure a positive charge.

The hour meter, on units so equipped, operates whenever the engine is running and records the actual hours of tractor operation.
