DANGER! Operate the Tractor and/or Implement controls only while properly seated in the
Tractor seat with the seat belt securely fastened around you. Inadvertent
movement of the Tractor or Implement may cause serious injury or death. (SG-29)
The mower valve comes with a push-pull operator switch that, when properly installed, will prevent the tractor from
starting if the switch is in the ON position (pulled out). To properly install the push-pull operator, follow the wiring
diagram shown. Failure to properly install this switch could result in injury to the operator or bystander.
The Rear Mount has two control valves. One is the on-off switch to the cutter motor and the other is the position
control valve.
ON-OFF Switch (Mower Valve) - To operate the mower, pull the switch while the tractor is running. The push-pull
operator will remain in the ON position PULLED or the OFF position PUSHED until the operator desires to start
or stop the mower. Always start the cutterhead with the tractor at idle.
7. OPERATING THE CONTROL VALVES
CAUTION! The operator should not leave his seat with this valve engaged or with the tractor engine
running. Allow approximately 60 seconds for the blades to come to rest after turning the
switch off before dismounting.
