UNIT DESCRIPTION

The Operator Soft Cab is designed to shield the operator from winter weather when using the 42” Snow Blower, 47” Rotary Broom and 48” Dozer Blade. The cab features a hinged door for operator entry, glass windshield, electric windshield wiper and LED headlights. A removable canvas ap attaches to the rear of the cab and covers the open area between the operator seat and top of the

catcher box or dump box; the canvas ap raises to

allow the tractor body to be raised for maintenance.

The Implement Mount Hitch (H10) is required to mount the operator soft cab on the tractor. The hitch mounts on the tractor in place of the mower deck in

less than a minute. The operator soft cab ts into

mounts that will be added to the side of the implement hitch and tractor chassis during the assembly process described in this manual.

● MACHINE consists of the implement installed

on the tractor, functioning as a single unit.

● POWER TAKE-OFF (PTO) transmits engine

power to run the cutter blades and GHS blower.

2. Never allow children to operate rider mower. Do not allow adults to operate without proper instruction.

3. Do not allow anyone other than the operator on the machine.

4. Keep everyone, especially children and pets, a safe distance away from the area of operation.

Do not mow with bystanders in the area.

5. Do not operate the machine barefoot or wearing sandals, sneakers, tennis shoes, or similar lightweight footwear. Wear substantial protective

footwear.

6. Do not wear loose tting clothing that could get caught in moving parts. Do not operate this ma-

chine while wearing shorts; always wear adequate protective clothing, including long pants.

Wearing safety glasses, safety shoes, and a helmet is advisable and required by some local ordinances and insurance regulations.

4

Safety Instructions

7. Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause im-

pairment or loss of hearing. Operator hearing protection is recommended. Wear a suitable hearing protective device, such as earmuffs or earplugs.

8. Keep all protective shields and safety devic-

es in place. If a protective shield, safety device,

or decal is damaged, unusable, or missing, repair or replace it before operating the machine.

9. Be sure interlock switches are functioning correctly, so the engine cannot be started unless the Forward Speed Control lever is in the

NEUTRAL-PARK position, and the PTO clutch

is in the DISENGAGED position. Also, the engine should stop if the operator lifts off the seat with either the Forward Speed Control (FSC) out of the NEUTRAL-PARK position or the PTO clutch in the ENGAGED position.

10. Handle gasoline with care. Gasoline is highly

ammable and its vapors are explosive:

a. Use an approved fuel container.

b. Never add fuel to a running engine or hot

engine (allow hot engine to cool several minutes).

c. Keep matches, cigarettes, cigars, pipes,

open ames, or sparks away from the fuel

tank and fuel container.

d. Always ll the fuel tank outdoors using care.

Fill to about one inch from the top of the tank. Use a funnel or spout to prevent spilling.

e. Replace the machine fuel cap and container

cap securely and clean up any spilled fuel before starting the engine.

11. Never attempt to make any adjustments while the engine is running, except where specical- ly instructed to do so.

WARNING

This product can expose you to chemicals including Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate which is known to the State of California to cause cancer, and Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

OPERATING

NOTE: Refer to your tractor Operator’s Manual for

safety instructions for operating the tractor.

1. Operate the machine only in daylight or in

good articial light with good visibility of areas

being cleaned.

2. Sit on the seat when starting the engine and operating the machine. Keep feet on footrests at all times when the tractor is moving and/or the implement is operating.

3. For a beginning operator, learn to steer (ma-

neuver) the tractor with a slow engine speed before attempting any implement operation.

Be aware that, with the front mounted implement

conguration, the back of the machine swings to

the outside during turns.

DANGER

Do not operate around overhanging tree branches or bushes at the same height as the operator’s torso and head where inadvertent contact may cause injury.

12. The snow or leaves can sometimes hide objects that might clog the snowblower or debris blower chute, or otherwise cause damage. Clear the area of doormats, sleds, boards, wires and other debris.

13. The electrical system battery contains sulfuric acid. Avoid any contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Keep the battery and acid out of reach of children.

5

4. Remember, for an emergency stop, the forward motion of the tractor can always be stopped by pulling the Forward Speed Control (FSC) into the NEUTRAL-PARK position.

Safety Instructions

5. In case the transmission drive belt breaks during operation, and if the machine is on a slope, the

machine will freewheel down the slope. To maintain control, immediately (1) Release the steering levers and simultaneously (2) Move the FSC to the NEUTRAL-PARK position. When the machine is stopped or moving slowly, engage the parking brake.

NOTE: The emergency stop procedure is exact- ly the same procedure used to normally stop and park the machine.

6. Disengage the PTO clutch and put the FSC in the NEUTRAL-PARK position before starting the engine (an ignition interlock switch normally prevents starting of the tractor if these controls are in the OPERATING position).

7. Do not operate the machine if the operator

presence safety switch system is not working. Verify proper operation by having the oper-

ator lift off the seat with the engine running and

moving two controls, one at a time; (1) Move the

FSC lever out of the NEUTRAL-PARK position,

and (2) Engage the PTO Clutch. Moving either

control should stop the engine immediately.

14. Never adjust gauge wheels or skid shoes with the engine running. Before adjusting height or

servicing, disengage the PTO clutch, stop the

engine, and remove the ignition key. Wait for all movement to stop before getting off the seat.

NOTE: The PTO brake should stop drive line rotation within ve (5) seconds of disengaging the PTO clutch. If the brake is not functioning

properly, have it repaired by an authorized dealer immediately.

15. If the implement strikes a solid object or the ma- chine begins to vibrate abnormally, immediately

disengage the PTO clutch, stop the engine, and wait for all moving parts to stop. Dis-

connect the fuel solenoid wire [diesel engines] or the spark plug wire(s) [gasoline engines] to prevent accidental starting. Thoroughly inspect the implement and repair any damage before restarting the engine and operating the machine. Make sure implement components are in good condition and all bolts are tight.

16. Do not touch the engine or mufer while the engine is running or immediately after stopping the engine. These areas may be hot enough to cause serious burns.

8. Do not run the engine in a conned area

without adequate ventilation. Exhaust fumes

are hazardous and can be deadly.

9. Do not carry passengers - maximum seating

capacity is one (1) person.

10. Avoid sudden starts or stops. Before backing

the machine up, look to the rear to be sure no one is behind the machine. Watch carefully for

trafc when crossing or working near roadways.

11. When moving forward, do not suddenly put the

tractor in reverse by rapidly pulling on the steering levers, especially when going downhill, as this can lift the tractor tail wheel off the ground and set up a bucking motion due to operator overcontrol. If bucking does occur, immediately stop the bucking action by pulling the Forward Speed Control (FSC) lever into the NEU- TRAL-PARK position.

12. Disengage the PTO clutch when transporting the machine.

13. Do not operate across the face of slopes. Use

extreme caution when changing direction on

slopes. Do not attempt to operate on steep slopes.

17. When leaving the machine unattended, disengage the PTO clutch, stop the engine, and remove the ignition key.

MAINTENANCE

NOTE: Refer to your tractor Operator’s Manual for

safety instructions for tractor maintenance.

1. To prevent accidental starting of the engine when servicing or adjusting the machine, remove the key from the ignition switch and disconnect the fuel solenoid wire [diesel engines] or the spark plug wire(s) [gasoline engines].

2. To reduce re hazards, keep the engine free of

grass, leaves, excessive grease, and dirt.

3. Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to ensure the machine is in a safe, working condition.

4. Perform only maintenance instructions described in this manual. Unauthorized mainte-

nance operations or machine modications may

result in unsafe operating conditions.

5. If the engine must be running to perform a main- tenance adjustment, keep hands, feet and

clothing away from moving parts. Do not wear jewelry or loose clothing.

6

Safety Instructions

6. Always use proper engine service manuals when working on the engine. Unauthorized

maintenance operations or modications to the

engine may result in unsafe operating conditions.

7. Altering the machine in any manner which adversely affects its operation, performance, durability or use will VOID the warranty and may cause hazardous conditions.

8. Never attempt to disconnect any safety devices or defeat the purpose of these safety devices.

9. Do not change the engine governor settings or overspeed the engine. The governor has been

factory-set for maximum-safe engine operating

speed.

10. Use genuine factory replacement parts. Sub- stitute parts may result in product malfunction and possible injury to the operator and/or others.

IMPORTANT: Keep all applicable manuals immediately accessible to anyone who may operate or service this machine.
