TO USE throttle CONTROL i t e a ^ ig. b)
Always operate engine at full throttle.
» Operating engine at less than full throttle reduces the
battery charging rate.
» Full throttle offers the best baqqing and mower per­
formance.
TO MO¥E FORWARD AND BACKWARD
(See Fig. 6)
The direction and speed of movement is controlled by
the gearshift lever.
•
Start tractor with clutch/brake pedal depressed and
gearshift lever in neutral (N) position.
• Move gearshift lever to desired position.
• Slowly release clutch/brake pedal to start movement.
IMPORTANT: BRING TRACTOR TO A COMPLETE STOP
BEFORE SHIFTING OR CHANGING GEARS. FAILURE TO
DO SO WILL SHORTEN THE USEFUL LIFE OF YOUR
TRANSAXLE.
TO ADJUST MOWER CUTTING HEIGHT
(See Fig. 6)
The position of the attachment lift lever determines the
cutting height.
•
Grasp lift lever.
• Press plunger with thumb and move lever to desired
position.
The cutting height range is approximately 1-1/2 to 4“.
The heights are measured from the ground to the blade
tip with the engine not running. These heights are
approximate and may vary depending upon soil condi­
tions, height of grass and types of grass being mowed.
•
The average lawn should be cut to approximately 2-
1/2 inches during the cool season and to over 3 inch­
es during hot months. For healthier and better look­
ing lawns, mow often and after moderate growth.
• For best cutting performance, grass over 6 inches in
height should be mowed twice. Make the first cut rel­
atively high; the second to desired height.
