13Section 4 — controlS & FeatureS
Low Gas Window
The low gas window is located at the rear of
the tractor. If the gas level is visible in this
window, the tank should be re-filled.
Transmission Bypass Rod
The transmission bypass rod is located at the rear of the tractor
on the lower right section of the frame.
When engaged, the rod opens a bypass within the hydrostatic
transmissions, which allows the tractor to be pushed short
distances by hand. Refer to the Assembly & Set-Up section for
instructions on using the bypass feature.
NOTE: If the tractor will not move or does not move freely when
pushing check if the bypass lever is fully open.

bypass rod is pulled out. Return the rod to its normal position
prior to operating the tractor. If the tractor will not move when
pushing on the forward/reverse pedals, or moves slowly, check to
see of the bypass valve is on.
CAUTION: Never tow your tractor. Towing the
tractor with the rear wheels on the ground may
cause severe damage to the transmissions.
Hydrostatic Transmission Oil Plug/Dipstick
The hydrostatic transmission oil plug/dipstick is located on the
back of the tractor frame and is used to check the level of the
hydrostatic transmission oil. The oil fill port is where hydrostatic
transmission oil can be added.
