OPERATION
6.2 Main Control Switch Box
The Mower Control switch turns the mower “ON” and “OFF”. This switch is to be in the “OFF” position to start
the tractor. If the switch is “ON” and the tractor ignition switch is turned to “ON” the red “mower run” indicator
light will com on. However, the tractor will not start again with the Mower Control switch in the “ON” position.
Upon starting the tractor the “mower run” indicator light may flash briefly, and may flash briefly again when the
tractor is shut down.
If tractor starts with switch on, turn off tractor and contact your local Tiger dealership for
assistance.
NOTE: DO NOT operate mower head while boom is in the boom rest! Red “Mower Run”
light indicates mower is “ON” when tractor engine is running.
The boom functions are controlled by an electric joystick. The Joystick Master Switch enables the joystick
control for controlling the boom motion functions. This switch is to be in the “OFF” position when starting the
tractor and when boom is stowed for transporting the machine.
If the joystick is not operating properly, turn the master switch to the “OFF” position. Install
the manual valve handle onto valve and operate the functions individually to stow boom.
After boom is stowed in rest, transport the unit to the maintenance facility and contact your
Tiger dealer for assistance.
DO NOT attempt to operate the valve manually for mowing operations!
Note: Pushing manual valve handles “out” or “away” from the tractor cab will bring the main boom “up”,
secondary boom “out”, roll deck “out” and swivel boom “aft”. Pulling manual handles toward cab will let main
boom “down”, secondary boom “in”, roll deck “in”, swivel boom “forward”, and “close” the safety shield.
