L. Hour Meter/Indicator Panel
The hour meter/indicator panel is located on the LH
console to the left of the operator’s seat.
Figure 6
Hour Meter Feature
The purpose of the hour meter is to record the hours
(tenths of an hour-right most digit) that the tractor has
been operated.
• The hour meter is activated whenever the ignition
switch is turned to the "ON" position. Because of
this, a record of the actual hours of operation
should be kept to assure all maintenance
procedures are completed according to the
schedule in this manual.
• When key is turned to the "ON" position, the
battery indicator light briefly illuminates and the
battery voltage is briefly displayed. The display
then changes to the accumulated hours.
Indicator Panel Feature
Battery Indicator (Refer to Figure 6)
• Illuminates and the battery voltage is displayed
briefly when the ignition switch it turned to the
"ON" position.
• Illuminates to indicate the battery voltage has
dropped below 11.5 (+0.5/-1.0) volts. The battery
voltage is also displayed on the hour meter. If this
indicator and display come on during operation,
check the battery and charging system for possi-
ble causes and/or contact your Cub Cadet dealer.
Oil Pressure Indicator (Refer to Figure 6)
• This warning lamp indicates low engine oil
pressure. If the indicator comes on while the
engine is running, stop the engine immediately
and check for possible causes. Do not run the
engine while this indicator is illuminated. Contact
your Cub Cadet dealer to have the tractor and
engine inspected.
NOTE: The oil pressure indicator may illuminate
when the ignition switch is in the ON position, but
should turn off when the engine is started.
PTO Engaged Indicator (Refer to Figure 6)
• This indicator illuminates when the PTO switch is
pulled upward in the "ENGAGED" position and
the ignition switch is turned to the "START"
position. Check this indicator if the engine will not
crank with the ignition switch in the "START"
position. If necessary, move the PTO switch to
the "DISENGAGED" position.
Parking Brake Engaged Indicator (Refer to Figure 6)
• This indicator illuminates when the parking brake
is in the DISENGAGED position and the ignition
switch is turned to the "START" position. Check
this indicator if the engine will not crank with the
ignition switch in the "START" position. If neces-
sary, move the parking brake to the ENGAGED
position.
This indicator also illuminates when the ignition
switch is turned to the "START" position and the
RH and/or LH drive control levers are in a posi-
tion other than the fully out in neutral position.
Move the control levers fully outward.
M. Throttle Control
The throttle control is located on the LH console to
the left of the operator’s seat. When set in a given
position, a uniform engine speed will be maintained.
Figure 7
• Push the control handle forward to increase the
engine speed. The tractor is designed to operate
with the control handle in the fast position (full
throttle) when the tractor is being driven and the
mower deck is engaged.
• Pull the control handle rearward to decrease the
engine speed.
