OPERATION

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 standard safety glasses or a wide vision safety mask worn over spectacles.

HOW TO USE YOUR TRACTOR

GROUND DRIVE -

To stop ground drive, depress brake pedal all the way down.

ENGINE -

Move throttle control (D) between half and full speed (fast) position.

NOTE: Failure to move throttle control between half and full speed (fast) position, before stopping, may cause en- gine to “backfire”.

Turn ignition key (F) to “STOP” position and remove key. Always remove key when leaving tractor to prevent unauthorized use.

Never use choke (N) to stop engine.

IMPORTANT: Leaving the ignition switch in any position other than "STOP" will cause the battery to discharge and go 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, al- ways stop engine when stopping tractor on grass areas.

CAUTION: Always stop tractor com- pletely, as described above, before leaving the operator's position.

FIG. 16

TO USE THROTTLE CONTROL -D(See Fig. 16)

Always operate engine at full speed (fast).

Operating engine at less than full speed (fast) reduces engines operating efficiency.

Full speed (fast) offers the best bagging and mower performance.

TO USE CHOKE CONTROL -N (See Fig. 16)

Use choke control whenever you are starting a cold engine. Do not use to start a warm engine.

To engage choke control, pull knob out. Slowly push knob in to disengage.

TO MOVE FORWARD AND BACKWARD (See Fig. 17)

The direction and speed of movement is controlled by the forward and reverse drive pedals.

Start tractor and release parking brake.

Slowly depress forward (K) or reverse (L) drive pedal to begin movement. Ground speed increases the further down the pedal is depressed.
