DECK HEIGHT/POWER TILT™

ADJUSTMENT SWITCH

The deck height and Power Tilt™ switch is used with MXT or MX deck equipped with the Power Tilt™ Kit. Push the toggle switch forward to raise the deck and pull back to lower the deck to the desired cutting height. For Power Tilt™ operation, pull back and hold the toggle switch to lower the deck and cycle through to the tilt position. Release switch when deck reaches maximum tilt position. To lower the deck, push and hold toggle switch until it cycles to the desired cutting height. NOTE: Power Tilt™ feature must not be used when sitting in the seat.

BRAKE & TEMPERATURE LIGHTS

Brake Light

NOTICE

■Do not operate with parking brake engaged or damage to the brake adjustment will occur.

The brake light indicates when the brake is engaged. To ensure light is operating properly, engage parking

brake and turn ignition key switch to the “ON” position. Control panel brake light (3) should be on.

Temperature Light

NOTICE

■For overheating, clean radiator grill and check engine coolant level.

The temperature light will alert you when the engine temperature is excessive. The temperature light sys- tem is not intended to shut the engine off or prevent operation; it is designed to provide notification. If tem- perature light starts to flash during operation, discon- tinue operation. The light is programed to flash at 220° fahrenheit and above.

NOTE: The radiator and prescreen require regular cleaning to prevent engine overheating. Clean the pre- screen daily and the radiator fins every 40 hours. Do not use high pressure on radiator fins to avoid radiator damage.

HOUR METER

The hour meter is programed to alert the operator at various service intervals. The change oil light will flash at 20 hours (initial break in) and every 100 hours after. The light will flash for a period of 4 hours (alternating between hours & change oil) and than resume normal mode. The hour glass will flash every second indicating it’s in running mode.

	Service Intervals

20 hrs	Engine oil change (break in)
100 hrs	Engine oil change & filter
500 hrs	Hydraulic oil change & filter (see
	hydraulic transmission - change oil
	& filter, page 19)

SAFETY SWITCH SYSTEM

Several safety switches are incorporated in the unit’s design to prevent it from being started out of NEUTRAL (handles pivoted outward) or with PTO engaged.

The PTO control must be in the “OFF” position and the steering handles in the NEUTRAL position before unit can be started.

A safety switch behind the operator’s seat will cause the engine to stop if the operator leaves the seat with the PTO or steering handles engaged. The engine will also stop if the steering handles are moved from NEU- TRAL while the parking brake is engaged. It will not run if the deck jumper wire (for Power Tilt™ operation) is not connected to the wire harness or the deck safety switch is disengaged.
