OPERATING THE MOWER
See Figures 13 - 14.
WARNING:
Clear the area of bystanders before operating the mower.
If anyone enters the mowing area, stop immediately and
do not return to mowing until the bystanders leave the
area.
Before starting the mower:
 Ensure work area is clear of children, bystanders, and
pets.
 Clear the work area of objects that may be thrown by the
mower blades.
 Check brake operation.
 Check tire pressure.
 Check for loose fasteners.
 Check to make sure all guards are in place and working
properly.
 Clean debris from mower.
 Test safety interlock system.
 Adjust seat to desired position.
 Verify battery charge level.
NOTICE:
When the level of battery charge reaches the red zone on
the battery charge indicator, the blades will automatically
shut off. Return immediately to recharge. Continuing to
mow when the battery charge level is in the red zone
can cause the mower to become stranded away from
the charging area.
NOTE: If the mower becomes stranded away from the
charger, it will be necessary to place the joystick in neutral
and push the mower back to the charging location.
Mowing:
 Raise the mower deck to its highest position.
 Make sure the joystick is in the neutral position.

 Engage joystick, then drive to desired mowing location.
 Stop the mower, turn key to OFF position, and set the
parking brake.

 Turn start key to ON position and release parking brake.
 Raise blade engage knob to activate blades and mow as
desired.

rotate when mower is stopped, even with the brake
applied, and cause the mower to go over the edge or into
the water and result in death or serious personal injury.
