REVERSE OPERATION SYSTEM (ROS)
Your riding mower is equipped with a Reverse

the operator to travel in the reverse direc-

off the engine unless ignition key is placed

WARNING: Backing up with the deck
clutch engaged while mowing is strongly
discouraged. Turning the ROS "ON", to al-
low reverse operation with the deck clutch
engaged, should only be done when the
operator decides it is necessary to reposition
the machine with the attachment engaged.
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary.

other bystanders will enter the mowing

4. Slowly move motion control lever to
reverse (R) po si tion to start movement.
