Front Lift
The front lift control valve is equipped with a float
detent position. Always use "FLOAT" position when
mowing. The traction booster is effective only
in
this
position. There is no down pressure
on
the front lift,
therefore attachments requiring down pressure
would be ineffective.
The Quick-Hitch allows fast interchange of
attachments. Push down
on
hitch control handle to
open latches.
Pu
ll
up
to
close and lock latches.
