OPERATION 2. To travel FORWARD, slowly depress the forward drive pedal until the desired speed is reached. 3. To travel in REVERSE, slowly depress the reverse drive pedal until the desired speed is reached. 4. The tractor is brought to a stop by releasing the forward or reverse drive pedal and depressing the brake pedal. WARNING Before leaving the operator's position for any reason, disengage the blade(s), engage the parking brake, turn the key switch to OFF position and remove the key. Reverse Caution Mode (RCM) The REVERSE CAUTION MODE button allows the tractor to be operated in reverse with the blade(s) (PTO) engaged. Note: Mowing in reverse is not recommended. WARNING Use extreme caution while operating the tractor in the REVERSE CAUTION MODE. Always look down and behind before and while backing. Do not operate the tractor when children or others are around. Stop the tractor immediately if someone enters the area. To use the REVERSE CAUTION MODE: Note: The operator MUST be seated in the seat. 1. Start the tractor as previously instructed. 2. Press and hold the RCM button down for three seconds until the red indicator light illuminates. The red indicator will remain on as long as the REVERSE CAUTION MODE is on. 3. Once activated (indicator light ON), the tractor can be driven in reverse with the cutting blade(s) (PTO) engaged. 4. Always look down and behind before and while backing to make sure no children or others are around. After resuming forward motion, press the RCM button to return to normal mowing operation. The REVERSE CAUTION MODE will remain activate until: a. The RCM button is pressed again to turn off the mode (red indicator light turns off). b. The operator leaves the seat. c. The START/STOP button is pressed. Operating the PTO To operate the PTO (Blades ON/OFF) proceed as follows: Press the PTO button for one second. When activated the green indicator light under the PTO button is ON (Blades ON). Press the PTO button again for one second, green indicator light is OFF (Blades OFF). Mulching (If equipped) Mulching is a process of recirculating grass clippings repeatedly beneath the cutting deck. The ultra-fine clippings are then forced back into the lawn where they act as a natural fertilizer. Refer to the Assembly section of this manual for instructions on how to install the mulch kit (if equipped). Mowing WARNING • To help avoid blade contact or a thrown object injury, keep bystanders, helpers, children and pets at least 75 feet (23 meters) from the tractor while it is in operation. Stop tractor if anyone enters the area. • Plan your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of materials toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also, avoid discharging material against a wall or obstruction which may cause discharged material to ricochet back toward the operator. The following information will be helpful when using the cutting deck with your tractor: 1. Do not mow or drive at high ground speed, especially if a mulch kit or grass collector is installed. 2. For best results it is recommended that the first two laps be cut clockwise with the discharge facing towards the center of your lawn. After the first two laps, reverse the direction to discharge to the outside for the balance of cutting. This will give a better appearance to the lawn. 3. Do not cut the grass too short. Short grass invites weed growth and yellows quickly in dry weather. 4. Under heavier conditions it may be necessary to go back over the cut area a second time to get a clean cut. 5. Do NOT attempt to mow heavy brush and weeds and grass taller than 10" (25.4 cm). Your tractor is designed to mow lawns, NOT clear brush. Routine Service Reminders During operation, a pair of service reminders will appear at regular intervals to help you properly maintain your tractor: Sharpen Blade Reminder: Occurs every 10 hours of PTO run time. When this message is displayed, the blade should be checked and sharpened or replaced if worn. For instructions, see Sharpening or Replacing the blades in the Service and Maintenance section of this manual. Check Tire Pressure Reminder: Occurs every 5 hours. When this message is displayed check and adjust the tire pressure per the proper tire pressure listed on the tire sidewall. See Checking Tire Pressure in the Assembly section of this manual. 11
