CONTROLS

Fuel Shut Off Valve

The fuel shut off valve is located in the fuel line under the seat. Tilt seat forward for access. The fuel valve is ON when the valve is parallel to the fuel line. Rotate the valve ¼ turn clockwise to turn fuel OFF.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

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

Mower Deck Lifting Lever

The lifting lever is used to place the mower deck in the transport position or one of the 6 different cutting height positions.

The cutting height is set by placing a lever in the notch for the desired cutting height.

The lifting lever can also be used to temporarily adjust the cutting height, such as when passing a minor bump in the lawn.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Always use the high position (F) to transport.

Tracking

If the mower is not tracking straight, check the air pressure in both rear tires. Recommended air pressure is 15 psi. (1 bar) Tracking must be checked on a flat and level concrete or blacktop surface. If the unit still does not track straight contact your Dixon workshop for adjustments.
