both levers forward to "FLOAT" position.
NOTE: For best mowing results and longer roller

"FLOAT" position while mowing.
It takes some effort to pull TILT lever from "FLOAT"
position because of detent spring.
The mower must be operated with the cutter
sections fully lowered and the hydraulic control
lever in the float dete nt to ensure the mower follows
the contour of the ground and to prevent sections
from creeping up. NEVER attempt to raise the
mower while the mower is operating.
