The operation of any tractor can result in foreign objects thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety

glasses or eye shields while operating your tractor or performing any adjustments or repairs. We recommend a wide vision safety mask over

spectacles or standard safety glasses.

HOWTO USEYOURTRACTOR

TO SET PARKING BRAKE

Yourtractor is equipped with an operator presence sensing switch. When engine is running, any attempt by the operator to leave the seat without first setting the parking brake will shut off the engine.

1.Depress clutch/brake pedal into full

"BRAKE" position and hold.

2.Place parking brake lever in "EN- GAGED" position and release pressure from clutch/brake pedal.

Pedal should remain in "BRAKE"

position. Make sure parking brake will hold tractor secure.

remove key. Always remove key when leaving tractor to prevent unauthorized use,

IMPORTANT: Leaving the ignition switch in any position other than "OFF" will cause the battery to be discharged,

(dead).

NOTE: Under certain conditions when tractor is standing idle with the engine running, hot engine exhaust gases may cause =browning" of grass. To eliminate this possibility, always stop engine when stopping tractor on grass areas. _I_CAUTION: Always stop tractor

completely, as described above, before leaving the operator'sposition; to empty grass catcher, etc.

TO USE THROTrLE CONTROL

2.Move gearshift lever to desired position.

3.Slowly release clutch/brake pedal to start movement.

IMPORTANT: Bring tractorto a complete stop before shifting or changing gears. Failure to do so will shorten the useful life

•Press plunger with thumb and move lever to desired position.

The cutting height range is approxi- mately 1-1/2 to 4". The heights are measured from the ground to the blade tip with the engine not running. These heights are approximate and may vary depending upon soil conditions, height of grass and types of grass being mowed.

• Never use choke to stop engine.
