PURGE
TRANSMiSSiON
_CAUTION:
Never engage or disengage
freewheel lever while the engine is running.
To ensure proper operation and performance,
it is recommended that the transmission be
purged before operating tractor for the first
time. This procedure will remove any trapped
air inside the transmission which may have
developed during shipping of your tractor.
IMPORTANT:
Should your transmission
require removal for service or replacement,
it should be purged after reinstallation before
operating the tractor.
1. Place tractor safely on a level surface -
that is clear of objects and open - with
engine off and parking brake set.
2. Disengage
transmission
by placing
freewheel control in disengaged position
(See "TO TRANSPORT"
in this section
of manual).
3. Sitting in the tractor seat, start engine.
After the engine is running, move throttle
control to slow position. With motion
control lever in neutral position, slowly
disengage clutch/brake pedal.
_IiCAUTION:
At any time, during step 4,
there may be movement of the drive wheels.
4. Move motion control lever to full forward
position and hold for five (5) seconds.
Move lever to full reverse position and
hold for five (5) seconds. Repeat this
procedure three (3) times.
5. Move motion control lever to neutral
position. Shutoff engine and set parking
brake.
6. Engage transmission
by placing free-
wheel control in engaged position (See
"TO TRANSPORT"
in this section
of
manual).
7. Sitting in the tractor seat, start engine.
After the engine is running, move throttle
control to half (1/2) speed. With motion
control lever in neutral position, slowly
disengage clutch/brake pedal.
8. Slowly move motion control leverforward,
after the tractor moves approximately
five (5) feet, slowly move motion control
lever to reverse position. After the tractor
moves approximately five (5) feet return
the motion control lever to the neutral
position. Repeat this procedure with the
motion control lever three (3) times.
Your transmission
is now purged and now
ready for normal operation.
MOWING
TIPS
• Tire chains cannot be used when the
mower housing is attached to tractor.
Mower should be properly leveled for best
mowing performance.
See "TO LEVEL
MOWER HOUSING" in the Service and
Adjustments section of this manual.
The left hand side of mower should be
used for trimming.
Drive so that clippings are discharged onto
the area that has already been cut. Have
the cut area to the right of the tractor. This
will result in a more even distribution of
clippings and more uniform cutting.
When mowing large areas, start byturning
to the right so that clippings will discharge
away from shrubs, fences,
driveways,
etc. After one or two rounds, mow in the
opposite direction making left hand turns
until finished.
If grass is extremely
tall, it should be
mowed twice to reduce load and possible
fire hazard from dried clippings.
Make
first cut relatively high; the second to the
desired height.
Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet
grass will plug mower and leave undesir-
able clumps.
Allow grass to dry before
mowing.
* Always operate engine at full throttle
when
mowing
to ensure better mow-
ing performance
and proper discharge
of material.
Regulate ground speed by
selecting a low enough speed to give the
mower cutting performance as well as the
quality of cut desired.
. When operating
attachments,
select a
ground speed that will suit the terrain and
give best performance of the attachment
being used.
