Mowing
1. Engage the parking brake. Make sure the PTO
is disengaged.
2. Start the engine (see “Starting the engine”).
3. Lower the mower deck lift lever.
4. Set the cutting height to the desired level.
5. Set the throttle to the full position.
6. Engage the PTO to activate the mower deck.
7. Begin mowing.
8. When the “catcher full” alarm sounds, turn off the PTO
immediately to prevent discharge tube clogging. Travel
to the desired location and empty the catcher.
9. When done mowing, shut off the PTO and raise the mower
deck lift lever. Empty the catcher before storing the unit.
10. Stop the engine (see “Stopping the tractor and engine”).

excess grease.
