Attachment Lift Control Lever
When using the mower deck, lift the deck off the ground
while transporting to and from the job site. DO NOT cut
with the mower in the raised, transport position.
The attachment lift control lever raises and lowers
attachments that utilize the tractor’s manual lift linkage.
To lower an attachment: pull the lever back slightly, then
push the lever forward. To raise an attachment: pull the
lever back and lock it in the raised position.
The attachment lift lever has three positions The back
position is for transporting to and from the work site. The
middle notch provides maximum traction when mowing
on hills. The forward position provides the most down-
ward pressure giving the best cut.

cutting height. The cutting height is infinitely adjustable
between 1” (2,5 cm) and 3-3/4” (9,5 cm).

reverse ground speed is controlled by the reverse

Depressing either pedal will increase ground speed.
Note that the further down the pedal is depressed, the
faster the tractor will travel.

gages attachments that use the PTO. To engage the
