Operating the Headlights

The lamps are ON whenever the ignition key is rotated out of the STOP position. The lamps turn OFF when the ignition key is moved to the STOP position.

Engaging the PTO

Engaging the PTO transfers power to the cutting deck or other (separately available) attachments. To engage the PTO:

1.Move the throttle control lever to the FAST position.

2.Pull the PTO/Blade Engage lever upward into the ON position. See Figure 5-3.

Figure 5-3

NOTE: When operating the tractor be certain that the

throttle lever is always in the FAST (rabbit) position. Operating with the throttle at less than full throttle may lead to premature battery wear and a poor quality cut.
