Operating Instructions

Transaxle Lockout Rods
The transaxle lockout rods disengage the transax-
les. By lifting the rods up and locking them into
place with the shoulder on the rod in the chassis
notch, the transaxles are released to permit free-
wheeling. By releasing the rods and recessing
them back toward the chassis, the transaxles are
engaged for normal operation. The transaxle rods in
the LOCKOUT position are used to enable moving
the machine without the engine running (e.g., for
service). Refer to TRANSAXLE LOCKOUTS in this
section for operating instructions.
NOTE: The transaxle lockout rods ends should be
completely retracted against the chassis, otherwise
operation of the transaxle may be erratic.

Hourmeter
The hourmeter, which is located on the right front of
the body, displays operating time accumulated
while the ignition switch is in the ON position.
The hourmeter provides maintenance reminders af-
ter certain hours of operation. The hourmeter screen
will start ashing the reminder one hour prior to the
recommended interval and will continue until one
hour after the recommended interval (two hours).
The hourmeter does not have a manual reset
function.

* These intervals reect the actual time that the
reminder will ash (one hour prior to and one

** This reminder is only used one time.
*** In normal operating conditions, oil changes in
100-hour intervals are acceptable. Walker and
the engine manufacturers recommend engine
oil changes every 50 hours in extremely dirty or
dusty conditions or for units with less than 100
hours annual use.
NOTE: The blinking hour glass on the display
means that the meter is operating properly.
