Slow down before turning and come to a complete stop before
any zero turn maneuver.
•
If you hit a solid object while mowing, DISENGAGE the PTO,
place the steering levers in the neutral, opened-out position,
move the throttle to slow
the engine, and take the key from the ignition switch. Inspect for
damage. Repair the damage. Make sure the blades are in good
condition and that the blade bolts are tight before restarting the
engine.
•
Do not stop the riding mower or park the riding mower over
combustible materials such as dry grass, leaves, debris, etc.
•
Keep the mower and especially the engine and hydraulic compo-
nents clean and free of grease, grass, and leaves to reduce the
chance of fire and permit proper cooling.
•
Do not fill the fuel tank when the engine is running or while the
engine is hot. Allow the engine several minutes to cool before
refueling. Tighten the fuel cap securely.
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR RIDING MOWER
1.
Before you operate the riding mower, study this manual carefully
to familiarize yourself with the operation of all the instruments and
controls. It has been prepared to help you operate and maintain
your riding mower efficiently.
2.
Fill the fuel tank with only clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline with a
pump sticker octane rating of 87 or higher. When the fuel reaches
one inch from the top of the tank, stop. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Space must be left for expansion.
3.
Check the engine oil level. Pull out the oil dipstick, wipe it off and
reinsert it. Pull it out again and read the oil level. If it is below the
operating range, add oil through the fill tube using a funnel to
bring it up to the top of the operating range.
4.
Check the tire inflation pressures - 8-10 psi for the rear tires,
20-25 psi front tires.
NOTE: New tires are overinflated in order to properly seat the bead to
the rim.
5.
Check that all nuts, bolts and screws are tight.
6.
Check the tension of the deck drive belts as instructed in the
Service and Maintenance section.
7.
Check if deck is level. When correctly adjusted the mower deck
should be level side to side, and the front of the deck should be
approximately 1⁄4" lower than the rear of deck. If deck needs to be
leveled, refer to the Service and Maintenance section.
8.
Lubricate all pivot points listed in the Service and Maintenance
section.
9.
Adjust the seat for operator's maximum comfort, visibility and for
maintaining complete control of the riding mower.

SAFETY INTERLOCK SYSTEM
•
This riding mower is equipped with a safety interlock system for
the protection of the operator. If the interlock system should ever
malfunction, do not operate the riding mower. Call 1-800-659-
5917 to schedule service from Sears Parts & Repair.
•
The safety interlock system prevents the engine from cranking
or starting unless the RH and LH drive control levers are moved
fully outward to each side in the neutral position, the parking
brake is ENGAGED, and the PTO is DISENGAGED.
•
To avoid sudden movement when disengaging the parking brake,
the safety interlock system will shut off the engine if the RH and/
or LH drive control levers are moved to a position other than
the fully out in the neutral position when the parking brake is
engaged.
•
The safety interlock system will shut off the engine if the operator
leaves the seat before engaging the parking brake.
•
The safety interlock system will shut off the engine if the operator
leaves the seat with the PTO engaged, regardless of whether the
parking brake is engaged.
NOTE: The PTO switch must be moved to the DISENGAGED position
to restart the engine.
•
The safety interlock system will shut off the PTO and the mower
blades will stop if both drive control levers are moved into the
reverse position. The PTO will re-engage when one or both of the
levers are moved back to either the neutral or forward position.
