CONTROLS
Fuel Shut Off Valve
The fuel shut off valve is located at the left rear of the seat. The valve is off when the handle tab is turned perpendicular to the fuel line.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Always raise the deck to the highest position for transport.
Cutting Height Adjuster
To set the desired deck cutting height, press the release button and move the lever forward to the preset height pin and release the button. See Before Starting in the Operation section to change the cutting height. The cutting height range is from 1½" (38mm) to 4" (102mm) in ½" (13mm) increments. The heights are measured from the ground up to the blade tip with the engine not running.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
To obtain an even cutting height, it is important that the air pressure in all tires is 15 psi / 103 kPa / 1 bar.
Bypass Linkages
The levers are located on each side of the rear of the unit below the rear engine plate. The bypass linkage is used when manually pushing or pulling the unit.
See Moving Machine By Hand in the Operation section.
WARNING!
Bypass linkages are located close to the muffler. To prevent burns, the engine should be shut off and allowed to cool before the bypass linkage levers are handled.
