• If the operator steps off the operator platform while the
unit is running and the PTO switch is engaged, the PTO
will shut off.
Transmission Oil Fill: Transmission oil is added through the
hydraulic oil tanks. It also serves as extra holding capacity
for oil as the transmissions heat up and the hydraulic oil
expands. See Check / Fill Transmission Oil for oil level check
and fill procedures.
Fuel Tank Cap: To remove the cap, turn counter-clockwise.
Transmission Release Levers:
A. Disengaged Position (Bypass Position)
B. Engaged Position (Run Position)
This unit is equipped with two transmission release levers.
The transmission release levers deactivate the transaxle
so that the unit can be pushed by hand. Both transmission
release levers must be in the same position whether you are
driving the unit or pushing it by hand. See Pushing the Unit by
Hand for operational information.

Hour Meter: This unit is equipped with a dual function hour
meter that records the number of hours that the engine has
run and the number of hours that the PTO switch has been
engaged.
"A" - Hour Glass Icon - The hour glass icon flashes when
the hour meter is recording the passage of time.
"B" - Mode Icon - The mode icon will display an "E" when
displaying engine hours, and a "P" when displaying PTO
hours.
"C" - Time Display - This is the number of hours that are
recorded.
The default display of the hour meter is engine hours. The
mode icon will display a "E" and the hour glass icon will not
flash.
To begin recording engine hours, start the unit's engine and
release the parking brake. The hour glass icon will flash.
To begin recording PTO hours, pull the PTO switch up to
engage the PTO clutch. The unit's engine must be running.
The mode icon will display a "P" and the hour glass icon will
flash.
While recording PTO hours, the hour meter also records
engine hours; however, the hour meter only displays PTO
hours when recording PTO hours.
To stop recording PTO hours, push the PTO switch down to
disengage the PTO clutch.
To stop recording engine hours, engage the parking brake.
The hour meter has a self contained power source so that the
recorded hours are always visible even when the engine is
OFF.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (M.I.L.): The malfunction
indicator lamp detects problems with the engine. If the
malfunction indicator lamp begins to flash while you are
operating the unit, see the engine operator's manual.
Throttle Control: The throttle controls engine speed. Move
the throttle forward to increase engine speed and back to
decrease engine speed. Always operate at FULL throttle
when mowing.
