NOTE: If the tractor will not move or does not move freely
when pushing check if the bypass lever is fully open or the
brake is engaged.
NOTE: The transmission will NOT engage when the hydrostatic
bypass rod is pulled out. Return the rod to its normal
position prior to operating the tractor. If the tractor will
not move when pushing on the forward/reverse pedals, or
moves slowly, check to see of the bypass valve is on.
CAUTION: Never tow your tractor. Towing the
tractor with the rear wheels on the ground may
cause severe damage to the transmission.
2. Disengage the bypass rod by lifting up and allowing the rod
to move back in after moving the tractor. See Figure 3-1.

already installed, follow the steps below:
1. Slide the pedestal cap onto the steering shaft so that when
the steering shaft is installed on the tractor, the pedestal
cap will be upright as shown in Figure 3-2.

2. Remove the shoulder bolt and lock nut from the steering
shaft and retain for later steps.
