OPERATION
Mowing Tips
• Observe and flag rocks and other fixed objects
to avoid collisions.
• Begin with a high cutting height and reduce it
until the desired mowing result is attained. The
average lawn must be cut to 2-1/2" during the
cool season and over 3" during the hot months.
For healthier and better looking lawns, mow
often after moderate growth.
• For best cutting performance, grass over 6" in
height must be mowed twice. Make the first cut
relatively high; the second to the desired height.
• The mowing result will be best with a high
engine speed (the blades rotate rapidly) and
low speed (the rider moves slowly). If the grass
is not too long and dense, the driving speed can
be increased without negatively affecting the
mowing result.
• The finest lawns are obtained by mowing
often. The lawn becomes more even and the
grass clippings more equally distributed over
the mown area. The total time taken is not
increased as a higher operating speed can be
used without poor mowing results.
• When mowing large areas, start by turning to
the right so that clippings will discharge away
from shrubs, fences, driveways, etc. After one
or two rounds, mow in the opposite direction
making left hand turns until finished.
• Avoid mowing wet lawns. The mowing result
is poorer because the wheels sink into the soft
lawn, clumps build, and grass clippings fasten
under the cowling.
• Hose the mower deck underside with water
after each use. When cleaning, the mower deck
shall be raised into the transport position. Make
sure the mower is cooled and the engine is off.
• Use compressed air to clean top surface of
the deck. Avoid flooding water on top surface,
engine and electrical components.
• When the mulching kit is used, it is important
that the mowing interval is frequent.
Operating on Hills
Read the Safety Instructions Driving on Slopes
in the Safety section.
• Use the slowest speed possible before starting
up or down hills.
• Avoid stopping or changing speed on hills.
• If stopping is fully necessary, pull steering / park
brake controls into the neutral position and push
outward to engage the park brake.
• Pull the steering / park brake controls back to
the center of the mower and push forward to
regain forward movement.
• Make all turns slowly.
WARNING! Do not drive the rider on
terrain that slopes more than 10 degrees.
Mow slopes up and down, never side to side.
Avoid sudden directional changes. Do not drive
across slopes.
Moving Machine By Hand
When pushing or pulling the mower, engage the
EZT bypass linkages. The EZT bypass linkages
are located on the rear of the frame, below the
rear engine guard.
WARNING! Make no adjustments without:
• the engine stopped,
• the ignition key removed,
• the park brake activated
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
push the mower, engage the hydro bypass
levers on both sides, pull both steering / park
brake controls inwards and push machine.
WARNING! Bypass linkages are located
close to the muffler. To prevent burns, the
engine should be shut off and allowed to cool
before the bypass linkage levers are handled.
WARNING! Use more caution when
loading the machine into a truck or trailer using
ramps. There is the possibility of dangerous
injury or death if the machine falls off the
ramps.
1. Raise the deck into the highest cutting
position.
2. Move the steering / park brake controls
inwards to the neutral position.
