Safe Operation Practices for Ride-On Mowers III. Be familiar with the controls and the proper use of the equipment. [. . . ] Driving Lower the cutting unit by moving the lever forwards. Choose a driving speed which suits the terrain and required cutting results. Any attempt by the operator to travel in the reverse direction with the attachment clutch engaged will shut off the engine unless ignition key is placed in the ROS "ON" position. Backing up with the attachment clutch engaged while mowing is strongly discouraged. Turning the ROS "ON", to allow reverse operation with the attachment clutch engaged, should only be done when the operator decides it is necessary to reposition the machine with the attachment engaged. Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. USING THE ROS • Depress clutch/brake pedal all the way down and hold. € With engine running, turn ignition key counterclockwise to ROS "ON" position. • Move gear shift lever to reverse (R) position and slowly release clutch/brake pedal to start movement. € When use of the ROS is no longer needed, turn the ignition key clockwise to engine "ON" position. € • • • Cutting tips Clear the lawn from stones and other objects which can be thrown away by the blades. localize and mark stones and other fixed objects to avoid collision. Begin with a high cutting height and reduce until the required cutting result is obtained. The cutting result is best with high engine speed (blades rotate quickly) and low gear (machine goes slowly). If the grass is not too long and thick the drive speed can be increased by selecting a higher gear or increasing the motor speed, without affecting the cutting result. The best lawn is achieved if the grass is cut often. Cutting becomes more even and the cut grass is more evenly distributed over the surface. Total time taken is not greater, since higher drive speed can be selected without affecting the cutting results. The cutting results will be worse since the wheels will sink into the soft lawn. Spray the cutting unit with water underneath after use. To turn off the alarm disengage the attachment clutch control. • Position tractor in location you wish to dump bagger. [. . . ] € Move the tractor to a dry area, preferably a concrete or paved area. Place the attachment clutch control in the “Engaged” position to remove excess water and to help dry before putting the tractor away. WARNING: A broken or missing washout fitting could expose you or others to thrown objects from contact with the blade. Replace broken or missing washout fitting immediately, prior to using mower again. [. . . ]
