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
TO SET PARKING BRAKE (See Fig. 6)
Your tractor is equipped with an operator presence sens-
ing switch. When engine is running, any attempt by the
operator to leave the seat without first setting the parking
brake will shut off the engine.
Depress clutch/brake pedal (B) into full "BRAKE" posi-
tion and hold.
Place parking brake lever (C) in "ENGAGED" position
and release pressure from clutch/brake pedal. Pedal
should remain in "BRAKE" position. Ensure parking
brake will hold tractor securely.
Never use the choke to stop the 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 corn=
pletely, as described above, and set
parking brake before leaving the opera=
tot's position.
TO USE THROTTLE CONTROL (D) (See Fig. 8)
Always operate engine at full speed (fast).
Operating engine at less than full speed (fast) reduces
the engine's operating efficiency.
Full speed (fast) offers the best mower performance.

key. Always remove key when leaving tractor to prevent
unauthorized use.
