WARNING
The engine will shut off if the reverse ground speed
pedal is depressed while the PTO is on and the
RMO has not been activated. The operator should
always turn the PTO off prior to driving across
on roads, paths or any area that maybe used by
other vehicles. Sudden loss of drive could create a
hazard.
WARNING
Mowing in reverse can be hazardous to bystanders.
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not
alert to the presence of children. Never activate
RMO if children are present. Children are often
attracted to the unit and the mowing activity.
Mowing in Reverse (RMO)
If an operator chooses to mow in reverse, the RMO system
can be used. To use the Reverse Mowing Option (RMO)
turn the RMO key after the PTO is engaged. The L.E.D.
light will illuminate, and the operator can then mow in re-
verse. Each time the PTO is engaged the RMO needs to
be reactivated if desired. The key should be removed to
restrict access to the RMO feature.
