OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

If you are not completely familiar with the Safety Instruction Manual read it now before proceeding with the operation of the mower. REMEMBER THERE ARE CERTAIN PRECAUTIONS LISTED IN THIS MANUAL THAT YOU MUST NOW TAKE BEFORE STARTING THE MOWER.

Inspect Mower Before Each Use

Inspection of Mower: Do not use the

mower if any parts are not maintained in good operating condition. Examine all moving parts prior to each use. Look for excessive wear, bald drive tires or worn out front tires (normally smooth), cracks in parts, loose or missing bolts, cotter, linchpin or “hair” pins or cable yoke pins and replace before operating the mower. Make sure all safety equipment provided with the mower is in good operating order, including all warning decals and the operator-presence device which stops the engine and blades when the foot-operated Operator Presence Control (OPC) switch is released. To test the OPC, follow the instructions given later in this manual. Inspect the two anti-tip rollers and their respective bolts at the rear of the mower for tightness and proper operation. Ensure that all parts of the Quad-Lever™ control system are tight and secure. This is to reduce the possibility that the mower could have a loss of control or safety.

Basic Operation: The following procedures are to guide you through the basic operation of the mower. You should be a qualified mower operator according to the safety section of this manual. If this is your first time, operation should only be done with the assistance of your dealer on a level area. You should go through each step, in the order indicated, every time you start the mower.
