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
Your tractor is equipped with an operator
presence sensing 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.
1. Depress clutch/brake pedal (B) all the
way down and hold.
2. Putt parking brake lever (C) up and hold,
release pressure from clutch/brake pedal
(B), then release parking brake lever. Ped-
al should remain in brake position. Make
sure parking brake will hold tractor secure.

between half and futl speed (fast) position,

thorized use.
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 idte with the engine
running, hot engine exhaust gases may
cause "browning" of grass. To eliminate
this possibility, always stop engine when
stopping tractor on grass areas.
_i_,CAUTION: Always stop tractor
completely, as described above, and set
parking brake before leaving the opera-
tor's position.
TO USE THROTTLE CONTROL (D)
Always operate engine at full speed (fast).
* Operating engine at less than full speed
(fast) reduces engine's operating efficiency.
* Full speed (fast) offers the best mower
performance.
