SettingtheCutting Height
Select the height position of the cutting deck by placing
the deck lift lever in any of the six different cutting height
notches on the right side of the fender. Then adjust the
deck wheels so that they are between 1A-inch and _/2-
inch above the ground when the tractor is on a smooth,
flat surface such as a driveway.
WARNING:
Keep hands and feet away
from the discharge
opening
of the cutting
deck.
NOTE:
The deck wheels are an anti-scalp feature of
the deck and are not designed to support the weight of
the cutting deck.
Refer to LevelingtheBeckon page 16 of this manual for
more detailed instructions regarding various deck
adjustments.
Starting the Engine
WARNING:
Do not operate the tractor if the
interlock
system
is
malfunctioning.
This
system
was designed
for your safety and
protection.
NOTE:
Refer to the TRACTOR SET-UPon page 8 of this
manual for Gasoline and Oil fill-up instructions.
Insert the tractor key into the ignition switch.
Place the PTO (Blade Engage) lever in the
disengaged (OFF) position.
Engage the tractor's parking brake.
Activate the choke control.
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.
After the engine starts, deactivate the choke control
and place the throttle control in the FAST position.
NOTE:
Do NOT leave the choke control on while
operating the tractor. Doing so will result in a "rich" fuel
mixture and cause the engine to run poorly.
Stopping the Engine
_,
WARNING:
If you strike a foreign object,
stop the engine, disconnect
the spark plug
wire(s)
and
ground
against
the
engine.
Thoroughly
inspect
the
machine
for
any
damage. Repair the damage before restarting
and operating.
If the blades are engaged, place the PTO (Blade
Engage) lever in the disengaged (OFF) position.
Turn the ignition key counterclockwise
to the STOP
position.
Remove the key from the ignition switch to prevent
unintended starting.
DrivingTheTractor
WARNING:
Avoid
sudden
starts,
ex-
cessive speed and sudden stops.
WARNING:
Do not leave the seat of the
tractor without first placing the PTO (Blade
Engage)
lever
in the
disengaged
(OFF)
position,
depressing
the brake
pedal and
engaging the parking brake. If leaving the
tractor unattended, also turn the ignition key
off and remove the key.
Depress the brake pedal to release the parking
brake and let the pedal up.
Move the throttle lever into the FAST (rabbit)
position.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT use the shift lever to change the
direction of travel when the tractor is in motion. Always
use the brake pedal to bring the tractor to a complete
stop before shifting.
To move forward, place the shift lever in the
FORWARD position, then slowly depress the drive
pedal until the desired speed is achieved.
To move in reverse, place the shift lever in the
REVERSE position, check that the area behind is
clear then slowly depress the drive pedal.
Driving OnSlopes
Refer to the SLOPE GAUGE on page 7 to help determine
slopes where you may operate the tractor safely.
_,
ARNING:
Do not mow on inclines with a
slope in excess of 15 degrees
(a rise of
approximately
2-1/2 feet every 10 feet). The
tractor
could
overturn
and cause
serious
injury.
Mow up and down slopes, NEVER across.
Exercise extreme caution when changing direction
on slopes.
Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other
hidden objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the
machine. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
Avoid turns when driving on a slope. If a turn must
be made, turn down the slope. Turning up a slope
greatly increases the chance of a roll over.
