OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
Engage parking brake before starting engine.
STARTING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Parking brake must be on, control levers swung out, and
blade drive disengaged.
2. Move throttle control to "Choke" position if engine is
cold, full throttle if warm.
3. Insert ignition key and turn to "Start" position. When
engine starts, release ignition key. Key will return to
"Run" position.
4. Move throttle from "Choke" to desired speed position.
5. Release parking brake.
6. Swing levers in.
NOTE: While mowing throttle control must be set to the
MAXIMUM or wide open setting to insure adequate
cooling of the engine and to maintain mower deck
blade speed.
7. Operate the mower per the "CONTROL" instructions on page 14.
TO FREE WHEEL MACHINE:
Should it become necessary to push or
pull the mower in a non-running mode,
rotate the lever on top of the right
hydrostat until it is held in place by the
wire by-pass keeper. This will engage the
hydraulic by-pass valves and allow the
machine to free wheel.
Remember to disengage the hydraulic by-
pass valves by pulling the wire by-pass
keeper toward the rear of the machine.
This will allow the lever to reposition
itself for normal drive operation.
