OPERATING

Using the Throttle

MX12847

Push throttle lever (A) forward to the fast position (B) when mowing.

Move throttle lever (A) to the half fast position (C) when starting and warming the engine.

Pull throttle lever (A) backward to the slow position (D) to idle engine. Do not run engine at slow idle any longer than necessary for cooldown after mowing.

Using the Hourmeter

NOTE: The machine is equipped with an electric start. The hourmeter will continue to run with the key switch in the run position.

Hourmeter (A) shows number of hours the machine has been operated.

Use hourmeter and SERVICE INTERVAL section to determine when machine needs service.

Using the Motion Control Levers

The functions of the motion control levers are:

c

CAUTION: Avoid injury! Learn use of the motion control levers and practice at half throttle until becoming proficient and comfortable with the operation of the machine.

Do not move motion control levers from forward to reverse or reverse to forward position rapidly. Sudden direction changes could cause loss of control or damage the machine.

Steering.

Acceleration.

Deceleration.

Neutral Position

Picture Note: Motion control levers (A) shown in the neutral position.

Machine speed, motion and direction can be controlled when the engine is running and park brake is unlocked.

Operator can exit the mower with the engine running when the park brake is locked and the PTO switch is disengaged.

Forward and Reverse Motion:

c

CAUTION: Avoid injury! Children or bystanders may be injured by runover and rotating blades. Before traveling forward or rearward:

Carefully check the area around the machine.

Disengage the mower before backing up.

1.Move throttle lever to the fast position.

2.Unlock park brake.

3.Push motion control levers forward to begin forward motion. The further forward the control levers are moved, the faster the machine will travel.

Forward speed range: 0–14.8 km/h (0–9.2 mph)

4.Pull both motion control levers rearward at the same time to begin reverse motion.

•Reverse speed range: 0–6.4 km/h (0–4 mph)

5.To stop motion, move both motion control levers forward or rearward until the machine comes to a stop.

NOTE: The motion control linkages are adjustable. If adjustment is required, see Checking and Adjusting Motion Control Linkages in the SERVICE TRANSMISSION section.
