CONTROLS Choke Control Note: The service meter operates (clocks hours) only when the engine is running. Be sure to turn the key off when the unit is not in use, to prevent meter hours from accumulating. Seat Adjustment The choke control is used for cold starts to give the engine a richer fuel mixture. For cold starts, pull the control up. Blade Switch The seat can be adjusted lengthways. The lever under the front edge of the seat is moved to the left (as seen by the driver in the seat), to adjust the seat backward or forward. Adjustments may be made to seat suspension by turning the center knob. IMPORTANT INFORMATION Seat must not be adjusted while unit is in motion. Seat Release To engage the mower deck, pull the knob out; mower blades are disengaged when the knob is pressed down. Service Meter The seat can be rotated forward to access the mower battery and hydro gears. Push down on the latch lever to release the seat. Raise the seat until the rod engages. Fuel Selector The service meter displays the total number of hours the engine has run and shows when the engine and mower need servicing. After every 50 hours of operation, an oil can icon will appear and stay on for two hours, before an automatic reset occurs. To manually reset the meter, turn the key off and on five times at one second intervals. To service the engine and mower, see the Service Journal of this manual. 14 The fuel selector is located at the right rear of the seat. The valve has three positions: right tank, left tank and OFF.
