Hour Meter
The hour meter measures the number of hours the
key has been in the RUN position.
Note: The hour meter will register the passage of
time when the key is in the RUN position, even if the
engine is not running. The hour meter has a self
contained power source so the total hours are always
visible.
PTO Switch
The PTO (Power Take-Off) switch engages and
disengages attachments that use the PTO. To engage
the PTO, pull UP on the switch. Push DOWN to
disengage. Note that the operator must be seated
firmly in the rider seat for the PTO to function.
Transmission Oil Fill
Transmission oil is added through the transmission oil
reservoirs. It also serves as extra holding capacity for
oil as the transmissions heat up and the oil expands.
See CHECK TRANSMISSION OIL LEVEL for oil level
check and fill procedures.

transmissions so that the unit can be pushed by hand.
See PUSHING THE UNIT BY HAND for operational
information.
