facing forward while seated in the operator’s seat.
NOTE: To prevent accidental starting and/or battery
discharge,  remove  the  key  from  the  ignition  switch
when the tractor is not in use.
A.   Deck Height Index
E.   Power Take-Off (PTO) Switch
The deck height index consists of six index notches
located on the front/right of the seat box frame. Each
notch corresponds to a 1/2 inch change in the deck
height position ranging from 1-1/2 inches at the low-
est  notch to 4 inches at the highest notch.
The PTO switch is located on the RH    console to  the
right of the operator’s seat.
B.   Deck Lift Handle
The deck lift handle is located on the front/right of the
seat  box  frame,  and  is  used  to  raise  and  lower  the
mower deck.
Pull the handle  to the left  out of the index notch and
push downward to lower the deck, or pull upward to
raise the deck. When the desired height is attained,
move the lift handle to the right until fully in the index
notch.
Figure 6  
The  PTO  switch  operates   the  electric  PTO  clutch
mounted on the bottom of the engine crankshaft. Pull
the switch knob upward to engage the PTO clutch, or
push the knob downward to disengage the clutch.
C.   RH and LH Drive Control Levers
The  RH  and  LH  control  levers  are  located  on  each
side of the operator’s seat. These hinged levers pivot
outward to open space to permit the operator to either
sit in the tractor seat, or to dismount the tractor. The
levers  must  be  fully  opened  out  and  in  the  neutral
position to start the tractor engine.
Each lever controls the respective RH or LH transmis-
sion.  Consequently,  these  levers  control  all  of  the
movements of the tractor. Driving and steering utiliz-
ing   these   control   levers   is   quite   different   from
conventional tractors, and will take some practice to
master.   Refer   to   SECTION  2:   OPERATION   for
instructions on using the control levers.
The PTO switch must be in the "disengaged" position
when starting the engine.
F.
Transmission Bypass Rods (Not Shown)
The transmission bypass rods (one for each the RH
and LH transmission) are located beneath the frame
platform, just inside each rear wheel.
When engaged, the two rods open a bypass within the
hydrostatic  transmissions,  which  allows  the  tractor  to
be   pushed    short   distances   by   hand.    Refer   to
SECTION   4:  MAINTENANCE   for   instructions   on
using the bypass feature.
WARNING:    Never    tow    your    tractor.
Towing  the  tractor  with  the  rear  wheels
on the ground may cause severe damage
to the transmissions.

the right of the operator’s seat.
The ignition switch has three positions as follow:
G.   Cup Holder
