gradually close the manual valves on top of each pump one at a time and see if the wheels start to move. If the wheels move when the hand controls are in the neutral position, adjust the neutral adjustment knobs at the back of the mower between the two hydraulic pumps until they stop. The manual valves on top of each pump should now be firmly closed. Now try moving the hand control levers, one at a time, forward and backward. Check to see if the wheels move forward and backward according to position of the levers. If not, service the hand control system. If the wheels stop when the hand controls are in the neutral position the parking brake should now be applied. Now check if the parking brake interlock prevents you from moving both of the hand control levers from the neutral position. If not, service the parking brake interlock.
Before testing the blade clutch/brake opera- tion make sure the area is clear and there is nothing vulnerable to possible thrown objects from under the mower. No one should be near the mower deck or in its line of discharge at this time. The dis- charge chute deflector should be in the down position. The parking brake should now be applied. Move the engine throttle control to its highest RPM speed setting. Stand on the foot platform and turn on the
blade clutch switch. Run blades for a minute or so. Try engaging and disengag- ing the blades a few times about 10 sec- onds apart. If the blades do not start and stop in a few seconds each time, service the blade brake system. With the blades on, now try stepping off the foot platform to test the Operator Presence Control switch (OPC). The engine should die and the blades should stop in several seconds. If not, service the OPC system. Try this a couple of times.
Disengage the blades, set the parking brake and shut off the engine and remove the mower from the stand(s).
Drive the mower around on a level parking lot. It is recommended that the slower setting of the Speed/Sensitivity Adjustment be used.
page 7
(See further in this manual for information on Speed/Sensitivity Adjustment.) Check that the mower drives in a straight line when both hand controls are held to the full speed position which is up against the stationary control bar. If not, see further in this manual for information on tracking adjustment.
As you drive the mower listen for any unusual noises and test for irregular operation and adjust or service as necessary. Next, go over the safety information and operating procedures in this manual with the cus- tomer. Instruct the customer in proper op- eration and observe the customer during their initial operation on a level parking lot. Make sure the customer is familiar and comfortable with the basic operation and use of the mower.
