Operation

Disengaging the PTO

1.Set the throttle midway between the “SLOW” and “FAST” positions.

2.Push down on the PTO switch to disengage the blades.

Note: The PTO will be disengaged by releasing the right side motion control lever and allowing it to spring outward to the PTO disengage position. The PTO will not re-engage when the RH motion control lever is moved out of the PTO disengage position without pulling up on the PTO switch.

To fully disengage the PTO, continue to push the switch downward.

Stopping the Engine

1.Bring the unit to a full stop.

2.Move the motion control levers to the neutral position; move the RH control lever out to the PTO disengage position.

3.Place the throttle midway between the “SLOW” and “FAST” positions.

4.Push down on the PTO switch to disengage the blades.

5.Engage the parking brake.

6.Allow the engine to run for a minimum of 15 seconds, then turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position to stop the engine.

7.Remove the key to prevent children or other unauthorized persons from starting engine.

8.Close the fuel shut-off valve when the machine will not be in use for a few days, when transporting, or when the unit is parked inside a building.

Driving the Machine

CAUTION

Machine can spin very rapidly by positioning one lever too much ahead of the other. Operator may lose control of the machine, which may cause damage to the machine or injury.

•Use caution when making turns.

•Slow the machine down before making sharp turns.

Important: To begin movement (forward or backward), the brake lever must be disengaged

(pushed forward) before the motion control levers can be moved or the engine will stop.

When the RH motion control lever is positioned fully outward (apart), the drive system is in the PTO disengage position (Figure 8).

Note: The “N” LCD indicator appears when the RH lever is in the PTO disengage position.

When the RH motion control lever is moved directly inward (together) the drive system is in the neutral operate position.
