OPERATION
When engaged, the rod opens a bypass within the hydrostatic transmissions, which
allows the tractor to be pushed short distances by hand. Refer to the Assembly &
Set-Up section for instructions on using the bypass feature.
Park Brake/Cruise Control Lever (K)
Located in the center of the tractor’s dash panel below the steering wheel, the park brake/
cruise control lever is used to engage the parking brake and the cruise control.
Refer to the Driving the Tractor section of this manual for detailed instructions regarding
the parking brake.
Note: The parking brake must be set if the operator leaves the seat with the engine
running or the engine will automatically shut off.
Note: Cruise control can NOT be engaged at the tractor’s fastest ground speed.
WARNING
Never leave a running machine unattended. Always disengage the PTO,
set the parking brake, stop the engine and remove the key to prevent
unintended starting.
Hour Meter (L)
LCD Service Minder & Hour Meter (If equipped)
When the ignition key is rotated out of the STOP
position but not into the START position, the
LCD Service Minder and Hour Meter will briefly
display the battery voltage, followed by the
tractor’s accumulated hours.
Note: Hours of tractor operation are recorded
any time the ignition key is rotated out of the
STOP position, regardless of whether the engine
is started.
The LCD Service Minder will remind the
operator of maintenance intervals for
changing the engine oil, air filter service, low
engine oil and low battery warnings.
Change Oil
The LCD will display the letters “CHG”, followed by the letters “OIL”, followed by the
letters “SOON”, then finally followed by the meter’s accumulated time. “CHG/OIL/
SOON/TIME” will alternate on the display for 7 minutes after the meter reaches 50
hours. This oil service minder interval will occur every 50 hours. Before the interval
expires, change the engine oil as instructed in the Engine Operator’s Manual.
Low Oil (If equipped)
The letters “LO” followed by the letters “OIL”, then followed by the meter’s
accumulated time will indicate the tractor is low on oil. When an engine is not
running and immediately after the engine is started the oil pressure may be low.
This can trigger the “LO” “OIL” text. This is normal. If the low oil indication persists
stop the tractor immediately and check the engine oil level as instructed in the
Engine Operator’s Manual.
Note: The “LOW OIL” function only works if the engine is equipped with an oil
pressure switch.
Low Battery
At startup, the battery voltage is briefly displayed then changes to accumulated
hours. The letters “LO” will display followed by the letters “BATT” and then followed
by the meter’s accumulated time. “LO/BATT/TIME” is displayed on the LCD when the
voltage drops below 11.5 volts. When this occurs, the battery is in need of a charge
or the engine’s charging system is not generating sufficient amperage. Charge the
battery as instructed in the Service section of this manual or have the charging
system checked by your local service dealer.
Air Filter Service
The letters “CLN” will display, followed by the letters “AIR”, followed by “FILT”, then
followed by the meter’s accumulated time. “CLN/AIR/FILT/TIME” will alternate on the
display for 7 minutes after the meter reaches 50 hours. This air filter service minder
time interval will be every 50 hours. On intervals that are common with oil service,
the oil message will be displayed first followed by the air filter message.

Fuel Tank Cap (M)
The fuel tank cap is located to the left of the dash. Turn the fill cap to remove. The fuel
cap is tethered to the tractor to prevent its loss. Do not attempt to remove the cap from
the tractor. Fill tank to the bottom of the filler neck, allowing some space in the tank for
fuel expansion. Do not overfill the tank.
Push the cap downward on the fuel tank fill neck and turn clockwise until it clicks to
tighten. Always re-install the fuel cap tightly onto the fuel tank after removing.
WARNING
Never fill the fuel tank when the engine is running. If the engine is hot from
recently running, allow to cool for several minutes before refueling. Highly
flammable gasoline could splash onto the engine and cause a fire.
Storage Tray (N)
The storage tray is located to the left of the operator’s seat.
