WARNING:

The mowing deck is capable of

throwing objects. Failure to operate the riding
mower without the discharge cover in the
proper operating position could result in
serious personal injury and/or property
damage.

TIRE PRESSURE

WARNING:

Maximum tire pressure under

any circumstances is 30 p.s.i. Equal tire
pressure should be maintained at all times.

The tires on your unit may be over-inflated for shipping
purposes. Reduce the tire pressure before operating
the tractor. Recommended operating tire pressure is
approximately 10 p.s.i for the rear tires & 14 p.s.i. for the
front tires. Check the sidewall of tire for maximum p.s.i.

IDENTIFYING THE MULCH PLUG (if so
equipped)

On tractor models with 42-inch and 46-inch decks so
equipped, a mulch plug can be found within the cutting deck’s
discharge opening.

NOTE:

Refer to '”Mulching“ on page 18

for more detailed

information.

If you’d prefer to operate the cutting deck without mulching,
simply remove the mulch plug by unthreading the plastic wing
nut which fastens it to the cutting deck. This will allow the
clippings to discharge out of the discharge opening during
operation. See Figure 6 (42-inch deck shown).
