DANGER
This machine is capable of amputating hands and feet, and
throwing objects. Failure to observe the following safety
instructions could result in serious injury or death.
• Only operate the machine in daylight hours or good
artificial light.
• Avoid holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden
hazards.
Uneven terrain can overturn the machine or cause
operator to lose their balance or footing.
• Do not direct discharge material toward anyone. Avoid
discharging material against a wall or obstruction as
material may ricochet back toward the operator.
• Stop the blade(s) when crossing gravel surface.
• Do not leave a running machine unattended. Always
park on level ground, disengage the attachment, set
parking brake, stop engine and remove starter insert or
key.
1. Engage the parking brake control (H, Figure 3).
2. Make sure the PTO switch (M) is disengaged.
3. Start the engine. See Start Engine.
4. Set the throttle control (J) to the FAST position.
5. Engage the PTO (N) to activate the mower blades.
6. Use the Height-of-Cut Electric Switch (C) to set the
cutting height to the desired level. See Adjusting the
Mower Cutting Height.
7. Disengage the parking brake (H), then begin to mow.
8. Turn off the PTO.
9. STOP the engine. See Stop Tractor and Engine.
WARNING
The engine will shut off if the reverse ground speed pedal
is depressed while the PTO is on and the RMO has not
been activated. The operator must always turn the PTO off
prior to driving across on roads, paths, or areas that can be
used by other vehicles. Sudden loss of drive could create a
hazard.
Adjust Mower Cutting Height
The mower lift lever (D and R, Figure 3) lowers the deck
to the cutting position or raises the deck to the transport
position.
Lower the Deck
Mechanical Lift - (if equipped)
1. On the right side, pull back the mower lift lever (R,
Figure 3) a small distance.
2. Push it to the right.
3. Move it down.
Power Lift - (if equipped)
1. Start the unit. Make sure that the brake pedal (P,
Figure 3) is not pushed down.
2. Push the power lift lever (D, Figure 3) forward to lower the
deck to cutting position.
Raise the Mower Deck
Mechanical Lift - (if equipped)
1. On the right side, pull up on the mower lift lever (R,
Figure 3).
2. Lock in notch to the left.
Power Lift - (if equipped)
1. Start the unit. Make sure that the brake pedal
(P, Figure 3) is not pushed down.
2. Pull the power lift lever (D, Figure 3) back until the deck is
at its highest position. This is transport mode.
Note: Do not cut when raised in transport position.
The cutting height electric switch (C, Figure 3) controls the
mower cutting height. See Specifications section for height-of-
cut specification.
Reverse Mowing Option (RMO)
DANGER
Mowing in reverse can be hazardous to bystanders.
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to
the presence of children. Children are often attracted to
the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that
children will remain where you last saw them.
• Keep children out of the operating area and under the
watchful care of a responsible adult.
• Do not carry passengers, especially children, even
with the blade(s) shut off. Children can fall off and be
seriously injured or interfere with the safe machine
operation. Children who have been given rides in
the past can suddenly appear in the mowing area for
another ride and be run over or backed over by the
machine.
• Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary.
Always look down and behind before and while you
mow in reverse.
• If the machine mows in reverse without the Reverse
Mowing Option activated, see a Briggs & Stratton
Authorized Service dealer immediately.
