Throttle Control (If so equipped)
The throttle control is located on the LH console to the
left of the operator's seat. When set in a given position,
a uniform engine speed will be maintained.
Push the throttle control handle forward to increase
the engine speed. The tractor is designed to operate
with the throttle control in the fast position (full
throttle) when the tractor is being driven and the
mower deck is engaged.
Pull the throttle control handle rearward to decrease
the engine speed.
Choke Control (If so equipped)
The choke knob controls the position of the
engine choke. Pull the knob out to choke the
engine; push the knob in to open the choke.
Parking Brake Engagement Lever
The parking brake engagement lever is located on the
front/left of the seat box frame, and is used to engage
the parking brake.
Pull the lever fully upward and to the left; then lower
into the short "J" slot to engage the brake.
Pull the lever up out of the "J" slot and to the right; then
lower completely to disengage the parking brake.
NOTE: If the LH and RH drive control levers are not fully
opened out in the neutral position when engaging the
parking brake, the engine will stop. The parking brake
must be placed in the engaged position when starting
the tractor engine.
Hour Meter/Indicator Panel
The hour meter/indicator panel is
located on the LH console to the left of
the operator's seat.
Hour Meter Features
The hour meter records the hours that
the tractor has been operated in the
digital display (tenths of an hour - right
most digit).
NOTE: The hour meter is activated whenever the ignition switch
is turned to the "ON" position. Keep a record of the actual hours
of operation to assure all maintenance procedures are completed
according to the instructions in this manual and the engine manual.
When key is turned to the "ON" position, the battery indicator
light briefly illuminates and the battery voltage is briefly
displayed. The display then changes to the accumulated hours.
The Indicator Monitor will also remind the operator of maintenance
intervals for changing the engine oil. The LCD will alternately flash,
"CHG" ; "OIL" and the recorded hours for five minutes after every
50 hours of recorded operation. The maintenance interval lasts for
two hours (from 50-52, 100-102, 150-152, etc.). The LCD will flash as
described for five minutes every time the tractor's engine is started
during this maintenance interval. Follow the oil change intervals
provided in the engine manual.

Indicator Panel Features
Battery Indicator
FAST
Illuminates and the battery voltage is displayed briefly when the
ignition switch it turned to the "ON" position.
Illuminates to indicate the battery voltage has dropped below
11.5 (+0.5/-1.0) volts. The battery voltage is also displayed on
the hour meter. If this indicator and display come on during
operation, check the battery and charging system for possible
causes and/or contact your Cub Cadet dealer.
Oil Pressure Indicator (If Engine So Equipped)
SLOW
This warning lamp indicates low engine oil pressure. If the
indicator comes on while the engine is running, stop the engine
immediately and check for possible causes. Do not run the
engine while this indicator is illuminated. Contact your Cub
Cadet dealer to have the tractor and engine inspected.
NOTE: The oil pressure indicator may illuminate when the
ignition switch is in the ON position, but should turn off when
the engine is started.
PTO Engaged Indicator
This indicator illuminates when the PTO switch is pulled upward
in the "ENGAGED" position and the ignition switch is turned
to the "START" position. Check this indicator if the engine will
not crank with the ignition switch in the "START" position. If
necessary, move the PTO switch to the "DISENGAGED" position.
Parking Brake Engaged Indicator
This indicator illuminates when the parking brake is in the
DISENGAGED position and the ignition switch is turned to the
"START" position. Check this indicator if the engine will not crank
with the ignition switch in the "START" position. If necessary,
move the parking brake to the ENGAGED position.
This indicator also illuminates when the ignition switch is turned
to the "START" position and the RH and/or LH drive control levers
are in a position other than the fully out in neutral position. Move
the control levers fully outward.
Transmission Oil Expansion Reservoir
The transmission oil expansion reservoir is connected by hoses to
the RH and LH transmission assemblies, and is located beneath
the seat box. The function of the reservoir is to hold the natural
expansion of transmission oil that occurs as the transmission
warms up during operation. DO NOT FILL THE RESERVOIR.
Under normal operating conditions, no oil should be added
to the reservoir. The COLD oil level should be no higher than
approximately 1⁄4" (the "Full Cold" mark) above the bottom of the
reservoir.
NOTE: Prior to the initial operation of the tractor, the oil level in
the reservoir may be slightly higher than the maximum due to air
in the oil lines. Operation of the tractor will eventually purge the
air from the lines and the oil level will settle to the maximum.
