Driving On Slopes
Refer to the SLOPE GAUGE in the Important Safe Operation
Practices section of the manual to help determine slopes where
you may operate the tractor safely.
WARNING!
Do not mow on inclines with a slope in
excess of 15 degrees (a rise of approximately 2-1/2 feet
every 10 feet). The tractor could overturn and cause
serious injury.
• Mow up and down slopes, NEVER across.
• Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on
slopes.
• Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden
objects. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine. Tall
grass can hide obstacles.
• Avoid turns when driving on a slope. If a turn must be
made, turn down the slope. Turning up a slope greatly
increases the chance of a roll over.
• Avoid stopping when driving up a slope. If it is necessary
to stop while driving up a slope, start up smoothly and
carefully to reduce the possibility of flipping the tractor
over backward.
Engaging the Blades
Engaging the PTO (Blade Engage) transfers power to the cutting
deck or other (separately available) attachments. To engage the
blades, proceed as follows:
1. Move the throttle control lever to the FAST (rabbit) position.
2. Grasp the PTO (Blade Engage) lever and pivot it all the way
forward into the engaged (ON) position.
3. Keep the throttle lever in the FAST (rabbit) position for the
most efficient use of the cutting deck or other (separately
available) attachments.
Models with Reverse Caution Mode:
The engine will automatically shut off if the PTO is engaged with
the shift lever in position for reverse travel with the ignition key
in the NORMAL MOWING position.
Models without Reverse Caution Mode:
The PTO (Blade Engage) lever must be in the disengaged (OFF)
position when starting the engine, when traveling in reverse, and
if the operator leaves the seat. Refer to Safety Interlock Switches
in the Operation section of this manual.
Using the Deck Lift Lever
To raise the cutting deck, move the deck lift lever to the left, then
place it in the notch best suited for your application. Refer to
Setting The Cutting Height earlier in this section.
