DANGER: THiS CUTTING MACHINE iS CAPABLE OF AMPUTATING HANDS AND FEET AND THROWING OBJECTS. FAILURE

TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT iN SERIOUS iNJURY OR DEATH.

WARNING: In order to prevent accidental starting when setting up, transporting, adjusting or making repairs, always disconnect spark plug wire and place wire where it cannot contact spark plug.

tral, you may lose control of the tractor.

WARNING: Do not coast down a hill inneu-

WARNING: Tow onlythe attachments that

are recommended by and comply with specifications of the manufacturer ofyour

tractor. Use common sense when towing. Operate only at the lowest possible speed when on a slope. Too heavy of a load, while on a slope, is dangerous. Tires

can lose traction with the ground and cause you to lose control of your tractor.

WARNING

Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and certain

vehicle components contain or emit chemicals

known to the State of California to cause cancer

and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

WARNING

Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known

to the State of California to cause cancer and birth

defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands

after handling.

I. GENERAL OPERATION

• Read, understand, and follow all instructions 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 without the entire grass catcher,

discharge chute, or other safety devices in place and working.

SAFETY RULES

• Slow down before turning.

• Never leave a running machine unattended. 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 all 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 when loading or unloading the machine into atrailer or truck.

• Always wear eye protection when operating machine.

• Data indicates that operators, age 60 years and above, are involved in a large percentage of riding mower-

related injuries. 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 recommendation for wheel

weights or counterweights.

• Keep machine free of grass , leaves or other debris build-up which can touch hot exhaust / engine parts and burn. Do not allow the mower deck 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 roll over.

• Use extra care while operating machine with grass catchers or other attachments; they can affect the

stability of the machine. 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 suddenly roll over if a wheel is over the edge or if the edge caves in.

Safe Operation Practices for Ride=On Mowers

SAFETY RULES

ill. 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 ofthe mowing area and inthe 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 machine.

• 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 for

towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the

hitch point.

• Follow the manufacturer's recommendation for weight limits for towed equipment and towing on slopes.

• Never allow children or others in or on towed

equipment.

• On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment 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 damage, use extreme

care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive.

• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other

sources of ignition.

• Use only approved gasoline container.

• Never remove gas cap or add fuel with the engine

running. Allow engine to cool before refueling.

• Never fuel the machine indoors.

• Never store the machine or fuel container where there

isan open flame, spark, or pilot light such as on awater 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 filling.

• Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or

trailer and refuel it on the ground. Ifthis 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 ofthe 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 clothing immedi- ately.

• Never overfill fuel tank. Replace gas cap and tighten

securely.

GENERAL SERVICE

• Never operate machine in a closed area.

• Keep all nuts and bolts tight to be sure the equipment

is in safe working condition.

• Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly.

• Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris

build-up. Clean oil or fuel spillage and remove anyfuel-

soaked debris. Allow machine to cool before storing.

• If you strike a foreign object, stop and inspect the

machine. Repair, if necessary, before restarting.

• Never make any adjustments or repairs with the engine

running.

• Check grass catcher components and the discharge chute frequently and replace with manufacturer's rec- ommended parts, when necessary.

• Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear gloves, and use extra caution when servicing them.

• Check brake operation frequently. Adjust and service as required.

• Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as

necessary.

Be sure the area is clear of bystanders before operat- ing. 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 back-

ing. 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.

Keep children out ofthe mowing area and inthe 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.

Mow up and down slopes (15° Max), not across.

Choose a low ground speed so that you will not have to stop or shift while on the slope.

Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a slope. If the tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly straight down the slope.

If machine stops while going uphill, disengage blades,

shift into reverse and back down slowly.

Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn

slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.

OPERATION

TO MOVE FORWARD AND BACKWARD

(See Fig. 7)

The direction and speed of movement is controlled by the forward and reverse drive pedals.

• Start tractor and release parking brake.

• Slowly depress forward (K)or reverse (L) drive pedal to begin movement. Ground speed increases the further

down the pedal is depressed.

TO USE CRUISE CONTROL (J) (See Fig. 7)

The cruise control feature can be used for forward travel only.

Fig. 7

SYSTEM CHARACTERISTICS The cruise control should only be used while mowing or

transporting on relatively smooth, straight surfaces. Other conditions such as trimming atslow speeds may cause the

cruise control to disengage. Do not use the cruise control on slopes, rough terrian or while trimmimg or turning.

• With forward drive pedal depressed to desired speed, pull cruise control lever (J) up and hold while lifting

your foot off the pedal, then release the lever.

To disengage the cruise control, depress the brake pedal or tap on forward drive pedal.

TO ADJUST MOWER CUTTING HEIGHT (See Fig. 8)

The position of the attachment lift lever (A) determines the cutting height.

• The average lawn should be cut to approximately 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 ADJUST GAUGE WHEELS (See Fig. 9)

Gauge wheels are properly adjusted when they are slightly offthe ground when mower isatthe desired cutting height in

operating position. Gauge wheels then keep the deck inprop- er position to helpprevent scalping in most terrain conditions.

NOTE: Adjust gauge wheels with tractor on a flat level surface.

• Adjust mower todesired cutting height (See"TOAD JUST MOWER CUTTING HEIGHT" inthis section of manual).

• With mower indesired heightofcut position, gaugewheels shou Id be assembled so they are slightly off the ground.

Installgauge wheel in appropriate hole. Tighten securely.

• Repeat for all, installing gauge wheel in same adjust- ment hole.

TO OPERATE MOWER (See Fig. 10)

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 inthe seat to prevent the engine from hesitating

or cutting off when operating your equipment on rough,

rolling terrain or hills.

1. Select desired height of cut with attachment lift lever.

2. Start mower blades by engaging attachment clutch. TO STOP MOWER BLADES -

Disengage attachment clutch control.

Fig. 8

• 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 conditions, height of grass and types of grass being mowed.

OPERATION

• Avoid stopping or changing speed on hills.

• If stopping is absolutely necessary, push brake pedal

quickly to brake position and engage parking brake.

• To restart movement, slowly release parking brake and brake pedal.

REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM (ROS) (See Fig. 11)

Your tractor is equipped with a Reverse Operation System

(ROS). Any attempt by the operator to travel in the reverse

direction with the attachment clutch engaged will shut offthe engine unless ignition key isplaced inthe ROS "ON" position.

_WARNING: Backing up with the attachment clutch en-

gaged while mowing is strongly discouraged. Turning the

ROS "ON", to allow reverse operation with the attachment clutch engaged, should only be done when the operator decides it is necessary to reposition the machine with the

attachment engaged. Do not mow in reverse unless

absolutely necessary.

USING THE REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM - Only use ifyou are certain no children or other bystanders

will enter the mowing area.

• Depress brake pedal all the way down.

• With engine running, turn ignition key counterclockwise

to ROS "ON" position.

TO TRANSPORT (See Figs. 3 and 12)

When pushing or towing your tractor, be sure to disengage transmission by placing freewheel control in freewheeling

position. Free wheel control is located at the rear drawbar of tractor.

• Raise attachment lift to highest position with attachment lift control.

• Pull freewheel control out and down into the slot and release so it is held in the disengaged position.

• Do not push or tow tractor at more than two (2) MPH.

• To reengage transmission, reverse above procedure.

NOTE: To protect hood from damage when transporting your tractor on a truck or a trailer, be sure hood is closed and secured to tractor. Use an appropriate means of tying

hood to tractor (rope, cord, etc.).

Fig. 12

TOWING CARTS AND OTHER ATTACHMENTS

Tow only the attachments that are recommended by and comply with specifications of the manufacturer of your trac-

tor. Use common sense when towing. Too heavy of a load, while on a slope, isdangerous. Tires can lose traction with

the ground and cause you to lose control of your tractor.

SERVICE REMINDER/HOUR METER

Service reminder shows the total number of hours the engine has run and flashes to indicate that the engine or mower needs servicing. When service is required, the

service reminder will flash for two hours. Toservice engine and mower, see the Maintenance section of this manual.

NOTE: Service reminder runs when the ignition key is in any position bu,t "STOP". For accurate reading, be sure key

remains in the STOP position when engine is not running.

OPERATION

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE

CHECK ENGINE OIL LEVEL

The engine in your tractor has been shipped, from the factory, already filled with summer weight oil.

• Check engine oil with tractor on level ground.

• 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 "FULE' mark on dipstick is reached. Do not overfill.

• For cold weather operation you should change oil for easier starting (See "OIL VISCOSITY CHART" inthe

Maintenance section of this manual).

• To change engine oil, see the Maintenance section in

this manual.

ADD GASOLINE

• Fill fuel tank to bottom of filler neck. Do not overfill. Use fresh, 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 assure fuel freshness.

CAUTION: Wipe off any spilled oil or fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline

near an open flame.

TO START ENGINE (See Fig. 3)

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.

• Be sure freewheel control isin the transmission engaged position.

• Sit on seat in operating position, depress brake pedal and set parking brake.

• Move attachment clutch to "DISENGAGED" position.

• Move throttle control to choke position.

NOTE: Before starting, read the warm and cold starting procedures below.

• Insert key intoignitionandturn 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 at- tempts, move throttle control to fast position, wait a few

minutes and try again. Ifenginestill does not start, move the throttle control back to the choke position and retry.

WARM WEATHER STARTING (50° F/10 ° C and above)

• 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.

iMPORTANT: WHEN OPERATING INTEMPERATURES BELOW 32°F(0°C), USE FRESH, CLEAN WINTER GRADE GASOLINE

TO HELP INSURE GOOD COLD WEATHER STARTING.

CAUTION: Alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which

leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system 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 itrun until the fuel lines and carburetor

are empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage instructions for additional information. Never use

engine or carburetor eJeaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.

COLD WEATHER STARTING (50 ° F/10° C and below)

• When engine starts, allow engine to run with the throttle control in the choke position until the engine runs rough-

ly, then move throttle control to fast position. This may require an engine warm-up period from several seconds

to several minutes, depending on the temperature.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WARM UP

• Before driving the unit in cold weather, the transmission should be warmed up as follows:

• Be sure the tractor is on level ground.

• Release the parking brake and let the brake slowly return to operating position.

• Allow one minute for transmission towarm up. This can be done during the engine warm up period.

• Theattachmentscan alsobeusedduringtheenginewarm- up period after the transmission has been warmed up.

NOTE: If at ahigh altitude (above 3000 feet) or in cold tem- peratures (below 32 ° F/10° C) the carburetor fuel mixture

may need to be adjusted for best engine performance. See "TO ADJUST CARBURETOR" in the Service and Adjust-

ments section of this manual.

To ensure proper operation and performance, it is recom- mended 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 devel-

oped during shipping of your tractor. iMPORTANT: SHOULD YOUR TRANSMISSION REQUIRE

REMOVAL FOR SERVICE OR REPLACEMENT, IT SHOULD BE PURGEDAFTER REINSTALLATIONBEFOREOPERATING

THE TRACTOR.

• Place tractor safely on a level surface - that is clear and open - with engine off and parking brake set.

• Disengage transmission by placing freewheel control in freewheeling position (See "TO TRANSPORT" in

this section of manual).

• Sitting in the tractor seat, start engine. After the en- gine is running, move throttle control to slow position.

three (3) times.

• Shut off engine and set parking brake.

• Engage transmission by placing freewheel control in engaged position (See "TO TRANSPORT" in this sec-

tion of manual).

• Sitting inthe tractor seat, start engine. After the engine is running, move throttle control to half (1/2) speed.

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 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 (See Fig. 13).

(

Fig. 13

• If grass is extremely tall, it should be mowed twice to reduce load and possible fire hazard from dried clip- pings. Make first cut relatively high; the second to the desired height.

• Do not mow grass when it iswet. Wet grass will plug mower and leave undesirable clumps. Allow grass to

dry before mowing.

• Always operate engine at full throttle when mow- ing to assure better mowing performance and proper discharge of material. Regulate ground speed by selecting a low enough gear 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.

• Touch up all rusted or chipped paint surfaces; sand lightly before painting.

BATTERY

• Fully charge the battery for storage.

• After a period of time in storage, battery may require recharging.

• To help prevent corrosion and power leakage during long periods of storage, battery cables should be dis-

connected and battery cleaned thoroughly (see "TO CLEAN BATTERY AND TERMINALS" in the Mainte-

nance section of this manual).

• After cleaning, leave cables disconnected and place cables where they cannot come in contact with battery

terminals.

• If battery is removed from tractor for storage, do not store battery directly on concrete or damp surfaces.

ENGINE

FUEL SYSTEM

iMPORTANT: IT IS IMPORTANTTO PREVENT GUM DEPOSITS FROM FORMING IN ESSENTIAL FUELSYSTEM PARTS SUCH

AS CARBURETOR, FUEL FILTER, FUEL HOSE, OR TANK DURING STORAGE. ALSO, EXPERIENCE INDICATES THAT ALCOHOL BLENDED FUELS (CALLED GASOHOL OR USING ETHANOLOR METHANOL) CAN ATTRACT MOISTURE WHICH

LEADS TO SEPARATION AND FORMATION OFACIDS DURING STORAGE. ACIDIC GAS CAN DAMAGE THE FUEL SYSTEM OF AN ENGINE WHILE IN STORAGE.

• Empty the fuel tank by starting the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty.

• Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.

• Use fresh fuel next season.

NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable alternative in mini- mizing the formation of fuel gum deposits during storage.

Add stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or storage container. Always follow the mix ratio found on stabilizer container.

Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to

allow the stabilizer to reach the carburetor. Do not empty the gas tank and carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.

ENGINE OIL

Drain oil (with engine warm) and replace with clean engine

oil. (See "ENGINE" in the Maintenance section of this manual).

CYLINDER(S)

• Remove spark plug(s).

• Pour one ounce of oil through spark plug hole(s) into cylinder(s).

• Turn ignition key to "START" position for a few seconds to distribute oil.

• Replace with new spark plug(s).

OTHER

• Do not store gasoline from one season to another.

• Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust.

Rust and/or dirt in your gasoline will cause problems.

• If possible, store your tractor indoors and cover it to give protection from dust and dirt.

• Cover your tractor with a suitable protective cover that does not retain moisture. Do not use plastic. Plastic

cannot breathe which allows condensation to form and will cause your tractor to rust.

iMPORTANT: NEVER COVER TRACTOR WHILE ENGINE AND EXHAUSTAREAS ARE STILL WARM.
