FEATURES AND CONTROLS

The hour meter measures the number of hours the key
has been in the RUN position. The hour meter has
a self contained power source so the total hours are
always visible.

The PTO (Power Take-Off) switch engages and
disengages attachments that use the PTO. To engage
the PTO, pull UP on the switch. Push DOWN to
disengage. Note that the operator must be seated
firmly in the rider seat for the PTO to function.
Transmission Oil Fill
Transmission oil is added through the transmission oil
expansion chamber. It also serves as extra holding
capacity for oil as the transmission heats up and the oil
expands. See CHECK TRANSMISSION OIL LEVEL
for oil level check and fill procedures.

hand. See Pushing the Unit By Hand for operational
information.

Move the adjustment lever towards the left, slide the
