Reverse Mowing Option (RMO)

The Reverse Mowing Option allows for mowing (or use of other PTO driven attachments) while traveling in reverse. If you choose to mow in reverse, turn the RMO key after the PTO is engaged. The L.E.D. light will illuminate, and the operator can then mow in reverse. Each time the PTO is engaged the RMO needs to be reactivated if desired.

PTO Switch

The PTO (Power Take-Off) switch engages and disengages attachments that use the PTO. To engage the PTO, pull UP on the switch. Push DOWN to disengage. Note that the operator must be seated firmly in the tractor seat for the PTO to function.

Ignition Switch

The ignition switch starts and stops the engine, it has three positions:

OFF

Stops the engine and shuts off the

 

electrical system.

RUN

Allows the engine to run and powers the

 

electrical system.

START

Cranks the engine for starting.

NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN position with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.

Ground Speed Pedals

The tractor’s forward ground speed is controlled by the forward ground speed control pedal. The tractor’s reverse ground speed is controlled by the reverse ground speed control pedal.

Depressing either pedal will increase ground speed. Note that the further down the pedal is depressed, the faster the tractor will travel.

Cruise Control

The cruise control is used to lock the ground speed control in forward. The cruise control has five lock positions.
