I. GENERAL OPERATION
• Read, understand, and follow all instruc
tions on the machine and in the manual
before starting.
• Do not put hands or feet near rotating
parts or under the machine. Keep clear
of the discharge opening at all times.
• Only allow responsible adults, who are
familiar with the instructions, to operate
the machine,
• Clear the area of objects such as rocks,
toys, wire, etc., which could be picked
up and thrown by the blades.
• Be sure the area is clear of bystanders
before operating. Stop machine if anyone
enters the area,
• Never carry passengers.
• Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary. Always look down and behind
before and while backing.
Never direct discharged material toward
anyone. Avoid discharging material
against a wall or obstruction. Material
may ricochet back toward the operator.
Stop the blades when crossing gravel
surfaces.
Do not operate machine withoutthe entire
grass catcher, discharge chute, or other
safety devices in place and working.
Slow down before turning.
Never leave a running machine unat
tended, Always turn off blades, set
parking brake, stop engine, and remove
keys before dismounting.
Disengage blades when not mowing.
Shut off engine and wait for afl parts to
come to a complete stop before cleaning
the machine, removing the grass catcher,
or unclogging the discharge chute.
Operate machine only in daylight or good
artificial light.
Do not operate the machine while under
the influence of alcohol or drugs,
Watch for traffic when operating near or
crossing roadways.
Use extra care whe n loading or unloading
the machine into a trailer or truck.
Always wear eye protection when operat
ing machine.
Data indicates that operators, age 60
years and above, are involved in a large
percentage of riding mower-related inju
ries. These operators should evaluate
their ability to operate the riding mower
safely enough to protect themselves and
others from serious injury.
Follow the manufacturer’s recommen
dation for wheel weights or counter
weights.
Keep machine free of grass , leaves
or other debris buiid-up which can
touch hot exhaust / engine parts and
burn. Do not allow the mower to plow
leaves or other debris which can cause
build-up to occur. Clean any oil or fuel
spillage before operating or storing the
machine. Allow machine to cool before
storage.
II. SLOPE OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of
control and tip-over accidents, which can
result in severe injury or death. Operation
on all slopes requires extra caution. If you
cannot back up the slope or if you feel uneasy
on it, do not mow it.
• Mow up and down slopes, not across.
• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or
other hidden objects. Uneven terrain
could overturn the machine. Tall grass
can hide obstacles.
• Choose a low ground speed so that you
will not have to stop or shift while on the
slope,
• Do not mow on wet grass. Tires may lose
traction.
Always keep the machine in gear when
going down slopes. Do not shift to neutral
and coast downhill.
• Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a
slope, if the tires lose traction, disengage
the blades and proceed slowly straight
down the slope.
• Keep all movement on the slopes slow
and gradual. Do not make sudden
changes in speed or direction, which
could cause the machine to roil over.
« Use extra care while operating machine
with grass catchers or other attachments;
they can affect the stability of the ma
chine. Do no use on steep slopes.
» Do not try to stabilize the machine by
putting your foot on the ground.
• Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or
embankments. The machine could sud
denly roll over if a wheel is over the edge
or if the edge caves in.
III. CHILDREN
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 mowing area
and in the watchful care of a responsible
adult other than the operator.
• Be alert and turn machine off if a child
enters the area,
• Before and while backing, look behind
and down for small children.
• Never carry children, even with the
blades shut off. They may fall off and
be seriously injured or interfere with
safe machine operation. Children who
have been given rides in the past may
suddenly appear in the mowing area for
another ride and be run over or backed
over by the machine.
• Never allow children to operate the ma
chine.
• Use extra care when approaching blind
corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects
that may block your view of a child.
IV. TOWING
• Tow only with a machine that has a hitch
designed fortowing. Do not attach towed
equipment except at the hitch point.
• Followthe manufacturer’s recommenda-
tionforweight limits fortowed equipment
and towing on slopes.
• Never allow children or others in or on
towed equipment.
• Onslopes, the weight of the towed equip
ment may cause loss of traction and loss
of control,
• Travel slowly and allow extra distance to
stop.
V. SERVICE
SAFE HANDLING OF GASOLINE
To avoid personal injury or property dam
age, use extreme care in handling gasoline.
Gasoline is extremely flammable and the
vapors are explosive.

where there is an open flame, spark, or
pilot light such as on a water heater or
other appliances.
• Never fill containers inside a vehicle or
on a truck or trailer bed with plastic liner.
Always place containers on the ground
away from your vehicle when fiillng.
“ Remove gas-powered equipment from
the truck or trailer and refuel It on the
ground. If this is not possible, then refuel
such equipment with a portable container,
rather than from a gasoline dispenser
nozzle.
• Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim
of the fuel tank or container opening at
all times until fueling is complete. Do not
use a nozzle lock-open device.
• If fuel is spilled on clothing, change cloth
ing immediately.
• Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap
and tighten securely.

TO ADJUST MOWER CUTTING HEIGHT
The position of the attachment lift lever (A)
determines the cutting height.
TO ADJUST GAUGE WHEELS
Gauge wheels are properly adjusted when
they are slightly off the ground when mower
is at the desired cutting height in operating
position. Gauge wheels then keep the deck
in proper position to help prevent scalping
in most terrain conditions.
NOTE: Adjust gauge wheels with tractor on
a flat level surface.
Adjust mower to desired cutting height
1.
(See “TO ADJUST MOWER CUTTING
HEIGHT" in this section of manual).
With mower In desired height of cut posi
tion, gauge wheels should be assembled
so they are slightly off the ground. Install
gauge wheel in appropriate hole. Tighten
securely.
Repeat for all, installing gauge wheel in
3.
same adjustment hole.
• Put attachment lift lever in desired cutting
height slot.
The cutting height range is approximately
1"to 4", The heights are measured from
the ground to the blade tip with the engine
not running. These heights are approximate
and may vary depending upon soil condi
tions, height of grass and types of grass
being mowed.
• The average lawn should be cut to ap
proximately 2-1/2" during the cool season
and to over 3" during hot months. For
healthier and better looking lawns, mow
often and after moderate growth.
• For best cutting performance, grass over
6" in height should be mowed twice. Make
the first cut relatively high; the second to
desired height.
TO OPERATE MOWER
Your tractor is equipped with an operator
presence sensing switch. Any attempt
by the operator to leave the seat with the
engine running and the attachment clutch
engaged will shut off the engine. You must
remain fully and centrally positioned in the
seat to prevent the engine from hesitating or
cutting off when operating your equipment
on rough, rolling terrain or hills.

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL
The engine inyourtractor has been shipped,
from the factory, already filled with summer
weight oil.
1. Check engine oil with tractor on level
ground.
2. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick and wipe
clean, reinsert the dipstick and screw cap
tight, wait for a few seconds, remove and
read oil level. If necessary, add oil until
“FULL’ mark on dipstick is reached. Do
not overfill.
• For cold weather operation you should
change oil for easier starting (See the oil
viscosity chart in the Maintenance section
of this manual),
• To change engine oil, seethe Maintenance
section in this manual.
ADD GASOLINE
» Fill fuel tank to bottom of filler neck. Do not
overfill. Usefresh, clean, regular unleaded
gasoline with a minimum of 87 octane.
(Use of leaded gasoline will increase
carbon and lead oxide deposits and reduce
valve life). Do not mix oil with gasoline.
Purchase fuel in quantities that can be used
within 30 days to ensure fuel freshness.
ACAUTION: Wipe off any spilled oil or fuel.
Do not store, spill or use gasoline near an
open flame.
IMPORTANT: When operating in tempera
tures below32T(0'’C), usefresh, clean winter
grade gasoline to help insure good cold
weather starting.
CAUTION: Alcohol blended fuels (called
gasohof or using ethanol or methanol) can
attract moisture which leads to separation
and formation of acids during storage. Acidic
gas can damagethefuelsystem of an engine
while in storage. To avoid engine problems,
the fuel system should be emptied before
storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas
tank, start the engine and let it run until the
fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Usefresh
fuel next season. See Storage Instructions
for additional information. Never use engine
or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank
or permanent damage may occur.
TO START ENGINE
When starting the engine for the first time or
if the engine has run out of fuel, it will take
extra cranking time to move fuel from the
tank to the engine.
1. Be sure freewheel control is in the trans
mission engaged position.
2. Sit on seat in operating position, depress
clutch/brake pedal and set parking brake.
3. Place motion control lever in neutral
position.
4. Move attachment clutch to disengaged
position.
5. Move throttle control to choke position.
NOTE: Before starting, read the warm and
cold starting procedures below.
6. Insert key into ignition and turn key
clockwise to start position and release
key as soon as engine starts. Do not run
starter continuously for more than fifteen
seconds per minute. If the engine does
not start after several attempts, move
throttle control to fast position, wait a
few minutes and try again. If engine still
does not start, move the throttle control
back to the choke position and retry.
WARM WEATHER STARTING (50T/10°C
and above)
7. When engine starts, move the throttle
control to the fast position.
• The attachments and ground drive can
now be used. If the engine does not accept
the load, restart the engine and allow it to
warm up for one minute using the choke
as described above.
COLD WEATHER STARTING (50T/10°C
and below)
7, When engine starts, leave throttle control
in choke position until engine warms up
and begins to run roughly. Once rough
running begins, immediately move the
throttle control to the fast position, Engine
warm-up may take from several seconds
to several minutes (the colder the tem
perature, the longer the warm-up).
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WARM UP
Before driving the unit in cold weather, the
transmission should be warmed up as fol
lows:
1. Be sure the tractor is on level ground,
2. Place the motion control lever in
neutral. Release the parking brake
and let the clutch/brake slowly return
to operating position,
3. Allow one minute for transmission to
warm up. This can be done during
the engine warm up period.
• The attachments can also be used dur
ing the engine warm-up period after the
transmission has been warmed up.
NOTE: If at a high altitude (above 3000
feet) or in cold temperatures (below 32° F)
the carburetor fuel mixture may need to be
adjusted for best engine performance (see
"TO ADJUST CARBURETOR” in the Service
and Adjustments section of this manual).
14
PURGE TRANSMISSION
__
^CAUTION: Never engage or disengage
freewheel lever while the engine is running.
To ensure properoperationand performance,
it is recommended that the transmission be
purged before operating tractor for the first
time.This procedure will remove any trapped
air inside the transmission which may have
developed during shipping of your tractor.
IMPORTANT: Should your transmission
require removal for service or replacement,
it should be purged after reinstallation before
operating the tractor.
1. Place tractor safely on a level surface that is clear of objects and open - with
engine off and parking brake set
2. Disengage transmission by placing
freewheel control in disengaged position
(See “TO TRANSPORT’ in this section
of manual),
3. Sitting in the tractor seat, start engine.
After the engine is running, move throttle
control to slow position. With motion
control lever in neutral position, slowly
disengage clutch/brake pedal.
MOWING TIPS
• Tire chains cannot be used when the
mower housing is attached to tractor,
• Mower should be properly leveled for best
mowing performance. See "TO LEVEL
MOWER HOUSING” in the Service and
Adjustments section of this manual.
• The left hand side of mower should be
used for trimming.
• Drive so that clippings are discharged onto
the area that has already been cut. Have
the cut area to the right of the tractor. This
will result in a more even distribution of
clippings and more uniform cutting.
• 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 ,
AcaUTION: At any time, during step 4.
there may be movement of the drive wheels.
4. Move motion control lever to full forward
position and hold for five (5) seconds.
Move lever to full reverse position and
hold for five (5) seconds. Repeat this
procedure three (3) times.
5. Move motion control lever to neutral
position. Shutoff engine and set parking
brake.
6. Engage transmission by placing free
wheel control in engaged position {See
“TO TRANSPORT” in this section of
manual).
7. Sitting in the tractor seat, start engine.
After the engine is running, move throttle
control to half (1/2) speed. With motion
control lever in neutral position, slowly
disengage clutch/brake pedal.
8. Slowly move motion control leverforward,
after the tractor moves approximately
five (5) feet, slowly move motion control
lever to reverse position. After the tractor
moves approximately five (5) feet return
the motion control lever to the neutral
position. Repeat this procedure with the
motion control lever three (3) times.
Your transmission is now purged and now
ready for normal operation.
If grass is extremely tail, it should be
mowed twice to reduce load and possible
fire hazard from dried clippings. Make
first cut relatively high; the second to the
desired height.
Do not mow grass when it is wet. Wet
grass will plug mower and leave undesir
able clumps. Allow grass to dry before
mowing.
Always operate engine at full throttle
when mowing to ensure better mow
ing performance and proper discharge
of material. Regulate ground speed by
selecting a low enough speed to give the
mower cutting performance as well as the
quality of cut desired.
When operating attachments, select a
ground speed that will suit the terrain and
give best performance of the attachment
being used.
