DANGER
Do not mow or dump grass within 5 feet
(1.5 meters) of an embankment or retaining
wall with drop o󰀨.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TOWING
This tractor is equipped with a factory installed
hitch. The maximum towing capacity on at
ground is 250 lbs (113 kg) gross trailer weight.
The maximum tongue weight is 50 lbs (23 kg).
Use caution when towing on slopes, rough
terrain or when conditions limit traction.
● Do not operate on slopes greater than 5
degrees (9%).
● Do not tow with PTO clutch or mower blades
engaged.
● Do not allow people to ride in or on towed
trailers.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TILT-UP
DECK OPERATION/TRANSPORT
To avoid potential deck and/or tractor damage
while using the tilt-up deck, the following recom-
mendations are o󰀨ered:
● Do not move the tractor with the deck in the
tilt-up position since both the roller wheels (on
the back of the deck) and the GHS discharge
chute may be damaged by moving the tractor.
The tilt-up conguration should only be used
when the tractor is parked.
● The tractor seat panel should never be tilted
forward with the deck in the tilt-up position.
This can cause the deck to unhook from the
tractor and fall with considerable force, poten-
tially causing deck or tractor damage and/or
bodily injury.
● When transporting a tractor with the deck in
the tilt-up position (on a truck or trailer), the
deck should be secured to the vehicle with a
strap or rope (stop vertical movement). This
will prevent the deck from bouncing on the rear
roller wheels (causing breakage). This will
also prevent the deck from unhooking from the
tractor and falling, potentially causing deck or
tractor damage. Damage to other items
parked in front of the deck may also occur.
