Parking Brake Engagement Lever
The parking brake engagement lever is located on the front/left of the
seat box frame, and is used to engage the parking brake.
Pull the lever fully upward and to the left; then lower into the short "J"
slot to engage the brake.
Pull the lever up out of the "J" slot and to the right; then lower
completely to disengage the parking brake.
NOTE: If the LH and RH drive control levers are not fully opened
out to each side in the neutral position when engaging the
parking brake, the engine will stop. The parking brake must be
placed in the engaged position when starting the riding mower
engine.
Transmission Oil Expansion Reservoir
The transmission oil expansion reservoir is connected by hoses to the RH and LH
transmission assemblies, and is located beneath the seat box. The function of the
reservoir is to hold the natural expansion of transmission oil that occurs as the
transmission warms up during operation. DO NOT FILL THE RESERVOIR.
Under normal operating conditions, no oil should be added to the reservoir. The
COLD oil level should be no higher than approximately 1⁄ 4 " (the "Full Cold" mark)
above the bottom of the reservoir. See Figure 12.
Full Cold Line
NOTE: Prior to the initial operation of the tractor, the oil level in the reservoir
may be slightly higher than the maximum due to air in the oil lines.
Operation of the tractor will eventually purge the air from the lines and the
oil level will settle to the maximum.

General Safety
•
RECEIVE INSTRUCTION — Entirely read this operator's manual. Learn to
operate this machine SAFELY. Do not risk INJURY or DEATH. Allow only those
who have become competent in its usage to operate this riding mower.
•
Before starting the engine or beginning operation, be familiar with the
controls. The operator should be in the operator's seat. The PTO switch must
be in the disengaged position, the parking brake engaged, and the RH and
LH drive control levers moved fully outward in the neutral position.
•
Keep all shields in place. Keep away from moving parts.
•
NO RIDERS! Keep all people and pets a safe distance away. Look behind and
down to both sides of the riding mower before and while backing up.
•
DO NOT direct the mower discharge at people.
•
Avoid slopes where possible. Never operate on slopes greater than 15°.
Slopes with a greater incline present dangerous operating conditions. Riding
mowers can be rolled over.
•
Before leaving the operator's seat: Shut off the PTO, move the RH and LH
drive control levers fully outward in the neutral position, engage the parking
brake
, shut off the engine and remove the ignition key. Wait for all
movement to stop before servicing or cleaning.
•
Operate the drive control levers smoothly and avoid any sudden movements
of the levers when starting and stopping. Keep a firm grip on the control
levers.
•
Be careful when operating near roadways. Stop the riding mower motion
and wait for vehicles to pass before operating along the road.
•
Do not operate the riding mower with the mower deck removed. Removal of
the deck will change the balance of the riding mower, and could contribute
to a riding mower rollover.
•
Avoid operation on traction surfaces that are unstable; use extreme caution
if the surface is slippery.
•
Slow down before turning and come to a complete stop before any zero turn
maneuver.
•
Do not stop the riding mower or park the riding mower over combustible
materials such as dry grass, leaves, debris, etc.
•
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.
