CONTROLS
PARKING BRAKE:
The parking brake used on the 5000 Series Models is designed to hold
the mower from moving and is not intended for use in stopping the
mower while it is in motion.
Engage parking brake before starting
engine
Do not leave engine running for extended periods of time without the
parking brake engaged. Damage to the drive system
could result.
TO SET PARKING BRAKE:
The hand operated parking brake is located at left hand side
of mower.
To engage brake, pull lever up and to the rear. To release
brake, move lever forward and down. NOTE: Always set
parking brake before dismounting. Release parking brake
before moving mower.
HYDRO-GEAR DRIVE SYSTEM:
Allows the mower to turn on its own axis (zero turning radius).
Control levers control braking, turning, travel speed and direction. Each lever controls
one side of the mower.
NOTE: The pressure required to operate the mower is very light.
First-time operators should spend a minimum of 1/2 hour driving the mower
without the blade drive engaged to become familiar with the controls.
