Reverse Mowing Option (RMO)
DANGER
Mowing in reverse can be hazardous to bystanders.
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to
the presence of children. Children are often attracted to
the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that
children will remain where you last saw them.
• Keep children out of the operating area and under the
watchful care of a responsible adult.
• Do not carry passengers, especially children, even
with the blade(s) shut off. Children can fall off and be
seriously injured or interfere with the safe machine
operation. Children who have been given rides in
the past can suddenly appear in the mowing area for
another ride and be run over or backed over by the
machine.
• Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary.
Always look down and behind before and while
backing.
• If the machine mows in reverse without Reverse
Mowing Option activated, see an authorized service
dealer immediately.
1. Engage the Power Take-Off (PTO). See Features and
Controls.
2. Turn the Reverse Mowing Option (RMO) key to the ON
position.
3. The L.E.D. light comes on.
4. The operator mows in reverse.
Note: The key must be removed to restrict access to the
RMO.

Before performing adjustments or repairs:
• Disconnect the spark plug wire and keep it away from
the spark plug.
• Disconnect battery at negative terminal (only engines
with electric start).
• Use only correct tools.
• Do not tamper with governor spring, links, or other parts
to increase engine speed.
• Replacement parts must be of the same design and
installed in the same position as the original parts.
Other parts may not perform as well, may damage the
unit, and may result in injury.
