OPERATION • Do not attempt to mow heavy brush and weeds or extremely tall grass. Your tractor is designed to mow lawns, NOT clear brush. • Keep the blades sharp and replace the blades when worn. • When approaching the other end of the strip, slow down or stop before turning. A U-turn is recommended unless a pivot or zero turn is required. • Align the mower with an edge of the mowed strip and overlap approximately 3" (7.6 cm). • Direct the tractor on each subsequent strip to align with a previously cut strip. • To prevent rutting or grooving of the turf, if possible, change the direction that the strips are mowed by approximately 45° for the next and each subsequent mowing. When stopping the tractor for any reason while on a grass surface, always: • Move the RH and LH lapbar drive control levers fully outward into the Park Brake engaged position. • Shut engine off and remove the key. • Doing so will minimize the possibility of having your lawn ''browned'' by hot exhaust from your tractor's running engine. 21
