and see if the wheels start to move. If the wheels move when the hand controls are in neutral
position, adjust the neutral adjustment allen screw located on each pump until they stop. The
manual bypass valve on top of each pump should now be firmly closed. Now try moving the hand
control levers, one at a time, to make the wheels move in forward and backward rotation. Check
to see if the wheels move forward and backward according to position of the levers. If not, service
the hand control system. If the wheels stop when the hand controls are in the neutral position the
parking brake should now be applied. Now check if the parking brake locking system (if
applicable) prevents the unit from being driven while engaged. If not, service the parking brake
locking system.
• Before testing the blade clutch/brake operation, make sure the area is clear and there is nothing
vulnerable to possible thrown objects from under the mower. No one should be near the mower
deck or in its line of discharge at this or at any time. The discharge chute deflector should be in
the down position. Move the engine throttle control to its highest RPM speed setting.
• Turn on the blade clutch switch. Run blades for a minute or so. Try engaging and disengaging the
blades a few times about 10 seconds apart. If the blades do not start and stop in a few seconds
each time, service the blade brake system. With the blades on, now try disengaging the OPC
switch to test the Operator Presence Control switch (OPC). The engine should die and the blades
should stop in several seconds. If not, service the OPC system. Try this a couple of times.
• Disengage the blades, shut off the engine and remove the mower from the stand(s).
• Drive the mower around on a level parking lot. It is recommended that the slower setting of the Speed
Adjustment be used. (See further in this manual for information on Speed Adjustment.) Check that
the mower drives in a straight line when both hand controls are at the full speed position. If not,
see further in this manual for information on tracking adjustment.
• As you drive the mower, listen for any unusual noises and test for irregular operation and adjust or
service as necessary. Next, go over the safety information and operating procedures in this
manual with the customer. Instruct the customer in proper operation and observe the customer
during their initial operation on a level parking lot. Make sure the customer is familiar and
comfortable with the basic operation and use of the mower.
