CONTROLS

Seat Adjustment Lever

The seat can be adjusted lengthways. When making adjustments, the lever under the front edge of the seat is moved to the left (as seen by the driver in the seat), after which the seat can be moved backward or forward.

Hour Meter

The hour meter displays the total operating time.

It will flash CHG OIL (Change Oil) at 50 hour intervals. The flash duration is one hour before and one hour after the interval. The CHG OIL icon will come on and shut off automatically. The hour meter cannot be manually reset.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

In order to obtain an even cutting height, it is important that the air pressure in the front tires is 15 psi and the rear tires is 10 psi.

Cutting Height Adjuster

The deck cutting height is obtained by pressing the foot pedal forward to lift the deck. To lower the deck, apply pressure to the top side of the foot pedal and allow it to pivot while the lift arm rotates to the rear of the unit. To stop in the desired cutting position, rotate the foot pedal down into the notch in the height plate. The cutting height range is from 1½" (38mm) to 4½"

(114mm) in ¼ (6mm) increments. The heights are measured from the ground up to the blade tip with the engine not running.
