Implement Power Control Switch (Figure 1).

Pull the switch out (ON) to engage the electro

magnetic clutch to drive the mower and front mount

ed attachments.

NOTE: This switchQ must be pushed in (OFF) to

disengage the drive before the engine will start or to

allow engine to keep running if the operator gets

off the seat.

Implement Power Indicator Light (Figure 1). This

light glows red when the implement power control

«witch (T) is pulled out to indicate that the mower

or front mounted attachment is engaged.

Throttle Lever (Figure 1). Raise the lever to in

crease engine speed. Lower the lever to decrease

engine speed.

Ignition Switch (Figure 1). Turn the key fully

clockwise to start the engine and release when the

engine starts. Turn the key counterclockwise to stop

the engine.

Choke Control (Figure 1). Pull choke control out

when attempting to start a cold engine or when

starting during cold weather. When engine starts,

gradually push choke in. Normally, it is not necessary

to use the choke when starting a warm engine.

Light Switch (Figure 1). Pull the switch out to

turn on the front and rear lights. The ignition key

must be turned on before the lights work.

Seat Safety Interlock Switch (Figure 1) This

switch, located in the seat, is closed by the operators

weight. If the operator leaves the seat for any

reason while the PTO is "ON" or the shift lever

is not in "NEUTRAL" the PTO clutch and engine

ignition are both shut off. When the PTO is "OFF"

and the shift lever is in "NEUTRAL" leaving the seat

will not cause the engine to stop.

Hydraulic Lift (Figure 1) Model S-14G only).

This lever controls the hydraulic system used to

raise and lower attachments. The lever has four

positions - UP, HOLD, DOWN and FLOAT. The

normal out-of-use position is the "HOLD" position,

whereby the attachment will not raise or lower. When

it is desired to raise the implement, move the lever

to the "UP" position, to lower the attachment move

the lever to the "DOWN" position. Place the lever

in the "FLOAT" position to allow the attachments

to follow the ground contours.

Ammeter (Figure)). The ammeter indicates the

rate of battery charge or discharge. The indicator

should register on the (-)-) side of the dial when the

engine is running at any speed above a slow idle.

When the engine is idling or with a fully charged

battery, the ammeter may not show charge. Should

the ammeter register on the (—) side of the dial for

an extended period of time with the engine running,

it indicates the alternator is not charging the battery.

Check the battery connections or contact your dealer.
