Safety Interlock System Tests

This unit is equipped with safety interlock switches and
other safety devices. These safety systems are present for
your safety: do not attempt to bypass safety switches, and
never tamper with safety devices.
WARNING
If the unit does not pass a safety test, do not oper-
ate it. See an authorized dealer.
Test 1 — Engine should NOT crank if:
• PTO switch is ON, OR
• Brake pedal is NOT fully depressed (parking brake
OFF), OR
• The cruise control lever is NOT in NEUTRAL.
Test 2 — Engine SHOUlD crank and start if:
• Operator is sitting in seat, AND.
• PTO switch is OFF, AND
• Brake pedal is fully depressed (parking brake ON),
AND
• The cruise control lever is in NEUTRAL.
Test 3 — Engine should SHUT OFF if:
• Operator rises off seat.
• Collector is not closed when engaging PTO switch.
Test 4 — Check Mower Blade Stopping Time
Mower blades and mower drive belt should come to a
complete stop within five seconds after electric PTO
switch is turned OFF. If mower drive belt does not stop
within five seconds, see an authorized dealer.
Test 5 — Check Reverse Mow Option (RMO)
• Engine should shut off if reverse travel is attempted if
the PTO has been switched on and RMO has not been
activated.
• RMO light should illuminate when RMO has been acti-
vated.
WARNING
Mowing in reverse can be hazardous to bystand-
ers. Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert
to the presence of children. Never activate the RMO if
children are present. Children are often attracted to the unit
and the mowing activity.

Check Tire Pressure

Tires should be checked periodically to provide the
optimum traction and to guarantee the best cut (see
Figure 3).
NOTE: These pressures may differ slightly from the
"Maximum Inflation" stamped on the side walls of the tires.

Oil Recommendations

We recommend the use of Briggs & Stratton Warranty
Certified oils for best performance. Other high-quality de-
tergent oils are acceptable if classified for service SF, SG,
SH, SJ or higher. Do not use special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity for
the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity for the
outdoor temperature range expected.
* Below 40°F (4°C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard starting.
** Above 80°F (27°C) the use of 10W-30 may cause increased oil
consumption. Check oil level more frequently.
