OPERATION

TO START ENGINE

NOTE: The default passcode "321" is preset at the factory and should be changed prior to first use. (See "RESET- TING IGNITION SYSTEM PASSCODE" in this section of the manual.)

SMARTSWITCH WARNING LIGHTS (See Fig. 19)

The SmartSwitch Ignition is programmed with warning lights to indicate when any part of the safety system is not being followed. The engine will not start until all the following ignition system faults are resolved:

•The park brake symbol (CC) will be lit if the parking brake has not been engaged during a start attempt.

•The blade switch symbol (EE) will blink if the attachment clutch control is not in the "DISENGAGED" position during a start attempt.

PRE-START

•Ensure freewheel control is in the transmission engaged position.

•Ensure transmission is in the neutral position

•Move attachment clutch control to the “DISENGAGED” position.

•Sit on seat in operating position, depress brake pedal and set parking brake.

SMARTSWITCH IGNITION UNLOCK

1.Press the SmartSwitch Ignition (SSI) button (F) once (or sit on the seat). Ensure the indicator is blinking blue.

2.Enter passcode and press the SSI button. If passcode is not accepted, the SSI button will blink red. Wait until the SSI button returns to blinking blue before attempting to re-enter passcode. Once accepted, the SSI button will flash green.

3.Ensure that the SmartSwitch Safety System warning lights are not showing any faults present. If any warning lights do indicate faults present, resolve those faults before continuing with STARTING.

STARTING

The Briggs & Stratton Endurance engine equipped with your tractor features a Ready-Start automatic choke system to provide simplified starting in normal conditions. Please read the following starting instruction carefully.

NOTE: For the first time starting after your tractor has sat for an extended period of time, or after running out of gas, the engine may require an extended start attempt to reprime the fuel system. For an extended start, press and hold SSI button for three seconds before releasing. This will prompt the engine to attempt starting for up to ten seconds (instead of the normal five seconds), allowing time for fuel to be pulled into the engine.

NORMAL STARTING (32°F/0°C and above)

1.Move throttle control to fast position ().

2.Perform procedures outlined in "SMARTSWITCH IGNI- TION UNLOCK" as previously described.

3.While the SSI button (F) is flashing green, press and release the SSI button once more to start the engine.

•Once engine starts, the attachments and ground drive can now be used. If the engine does not accept the load, restart the engine and allow it to warm up for one minute.

• Leave throttle control in fast position ( ) while mowing.

COLD WEATHER STARTING (32°F/0°C and below)

1. Move throttle control beyond fast position ( ) into the cold weather starting position ( ).

2.Perform procedures outlined in "SMARTSWITCH IGNI- TION UNLOCK" as previously described.

3.While the SSI button is flashing green, press the SSI button once more to start the engine.

• Once engine starts, move the throttle control back to the fast position ( ) to warm-up. The time required for warm-up will vary from a few seconds to a minute depending upon conditions and temperature.

• Leave throttle control in fast position ( ) while mowing.

NOTE: Failure to move throttle from cold weather starting position ( ) will result in poor engine performance and spark plug fouling.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WARM UP

•Before driving the unit in cold weather, the transmission should be warmed up as follows:

•Ensure the tractor is on level ground.

•Release the parking brake and let the brake slowly return to operating position.

•Allow one minute for transmission to warm up. This can be done during the engine warm up period.

•The attachments can also be used during the engine warm-up period after the transmission has been warmed up.
