1. Slow engine speed to idle.
2. Place the right foot pedal in the center (neutral)
position.
3. Engage the blade brake.
-IMPORTANT-
If at all possible, do not engage the mower
brake with engine running at high speed, since
premature wear of the electric clutch will oc-
cur. Lower speed to near idle then engage the
brake.
4.11 AFTER OPERATION
1. Park the mower on a flat and level surface and fully
lower the cutting deck to the ground. Stop the engine
and engage the parking and blade brakes. Remove the
key from the ignition switch.
-IMPORTANT-
If the radiator dirt screen is not removed and
cleaned after every use, the screen will be-
come clogged with grass clippings, etc., block-
ing the air flow through the radiator. This
will cause a high engine operating tempera-
ture that may cause damage to the engine.
