OPERATION
Starting the Engine
Do not operate the tractor if the interlock system is malfunctioning. This
system was designed for your safety and protection.
NOTE: Refer to the Assembly section of this manual for gasoline and oil fill-up
instructions.

Insert the tractor key into the ignition switch.
2.
Place the PTO (Blade Engage) lever in the disengaged (OFF) position.
3.
Engage the tractor's parking brake.
4.
Activate the choke control.
5.
Turn the ignition key clockwise to the START position. After the engine starts,
release the key. It will return to the ON position.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT hold the key in the START position for longer than ten
seconds at a time. Doing so may cause damage to your engine's electric
starter.

result in a "rich" fuel mixture and cause the engine to run poorly.

wire(s) and ground against the engine. Thoroughly inspect the machine for
any damage. Repair the damage before restarting and operating.
