4. Electric Blade Clutch Switch: (See Figure
1.) Located on the seat support beside the
ignition switch. This is an “on/off” push pull
switch that controls the electric blade clutch
which supplies power to the cutting blades
through the PTO. The switch must be turned
off to start the engine and should be turned
off for safety any time another person
approaches the mower or the mowing deck is
raised to the transport position. Power to the
electric clutch will also be cut off if the opera-
tor leaves the operator’s seat.
5. Parking Brake: (See Figure 3.) Located on
the left side of the traction unit. The handle is
an overcenter lever which applies the drum-
type brake on each drive wheel when the han-
dle is pulled to the rear. The brake must be
engaged in order to start the engine.
6. Deck Lift Handle: (See Figure 3.) Located on
the right front corner of the mowing deck.
Raise the mowing deck to the transport posi-
tion, by pulling the lever to the rear and mov-
ing it inward into the stop for transport. To
lower the mowing deck, pull the deck lift han-
dle and move it outward. This lower’s the deck
to the cutting position.
7. Fuel Shutoff Valve: (See Figure 4.) Located
on top of the fuel tank(s). When turned in a
clockwise direction until it stops, it will shut off
the flow of fuel to the engine. When turned in
a counterclockwise direction it will open and
allow fuel to flow to the engine. Close this
valve if you are not going to run the mower for
a period of 30 minutes or more to prevent
flooding the engine.
8. Seat Adjustment Lever: The Seat Adjust-
ment Lever is located beneath the seat. The
Seat Adjustment Lever is used to move the
seat forward and backward. To place the seat
in the desired position pull the seat adjust-
ment lever to the left then push the seat for-
ward or back to the desired position. Release
the lever so the seat will lock in place.
9. Digital Tachometer and Hour Meter: (See
Figure 1) Located on the seat support above
the ignition switch. When the machine is run-
ning the tachometer displays engine rpm.
When the machine is off the tachometer dis-
plays running time.
Note:
There will be a flashing “LUBE” for
each recommended lubrication interval. There
is a flashing “OIL” at each recommended
engine oil and filter change.
10. Choke Lever: (See Figure 2) The Choke
Lever is located on the left side of the seat
support. The Choke Lever is operated manu-
ally. Having the Choke Lever in the ON posi-
tion helps the engine to start during initial
start-up. During normal operation the Choke
Lever should be in the OFF position.
