The parking brake must be set if the operator leaves the seat with the engine running. See Figure 12. Figure 12 Relief Valve A hydrostatic relief valve is provided so the unit can be moved without the engine running. The lever which operates the relief valve is located in the rear of the tractor between the wheels. See Figure 13. To operate the relief valve, place the hydrostatic control lever in neutral and release the parking brake. Move the lever from the lock position into the slot to relieve the hydraulic pump. Make sure to release the lever to the lock position before operating the engine. Figure 13 Lift Lever The lift lever is used to raise and lower the cutting deck and to engage and disengage the blades. Pulling it all the way back and locking it disengages the blades. See Figure 14. NOTE: The lift lever must be in the BLADES STOP position when starting the engine, when shifting into reverse and if the operator leaves the seat. Figure 14 Optional Features NOTE: The controls listed below are optional features and many tractor models may not be equipped with one or more of these. Please use information pertinent to your lawn tractor. Indicator Lights If your unit is equipped with indicator lights, two or three indicator lights are located in the dash panel. If a light illuminates when attempting to start the unit, proceed as follows. Clutch: Depress the clutch pedal. PTO: Place lift lever in the Blades Stop position. Oil (Vanguard Twin and Intek Twin Engines Only). Check the crankcase oil level and add oil as required. Deck Lift Indicator The deck lift indicator (if so equipped) marks the position being used for the lift lever. Select the lift lever position desired, press the indicator lever outward, move it to the position immediately below the lift lever and release the indicator lever. Light Switch The head lamps are operated by pushing the light switch located on the dashboard. The head lamps will only operate when the engine is running. Ammeter The ammeter registers the rate of battery charge or discharge. While the engine starts, the ammeter will register on the discharging side. It should register on the opposite side (charging) when the engine is running fast and the battery is not yet completely charged. With a fully charged battery or with the engine idling, the ammeter will not show a charge. Parking Brake Knob Relief Valve Lift Lever Deck Lift Indicator SECTION 5: OPERATING YOUR LAWN TRACTOR WARNING: Go up and down slopes, not across. Avoid sudden turns. Do not operate the unit where it could slip or tip over. If the tractor stops while going uphill, stop the blade(s) and reverse down the hill slowly. Do not mow when children or others are around. Never carry children. Look down and behind the tractor before and while backing. Keep the pathway of the tractor free of obstructions. Keep safety devices like guards, shields and switches in place and fully functional. Make sure that the blade(s) and the engine have stopped completely before you put hands or feet near the blade(s). Gas And Oil Fill-Up • Check the oil level and add if necessary. Service the engine with gasoline as instructed in the separate engine manual packed with your tractor. Read instructions carefully. IMPORTANT: Your tractor is shipped with oil; however you must check the oil level always before operating. Be careful not to overfill. Starting Engine IMPORTANT: This unit is equipped with a safety interlock system for your protection. The purpose of the safety interlock system is to prevent the engine from cranking or starting unless the clutch-brake pedal is depressed and the lift lever is in the BLADES STOP position. In addition, the lift lever must be in the BLADES STOP position when the unit is put into reverse or the engine will shut off. If the operator leaves the seat with the lift lever engaged and/or without setting the parking brake, the engine will shut off. WARNING: Do not operate the tractor if the interlock system is malfunctioning because it is a safety device, designed for protection. • Place the lift lever in the BLADES STOP position. • Depress clutch-brake pedal and set parking brake. • Place the hydrostatic control lever in the NEUTRAL (N) position. • Set the throttle control in the FAST position. • Pull out the choke control (a warm engine may not require choking). • Turn the ignition key to the right to the START position. After the engine starts, release the key. It will return to the ON position. NOTE: Protect the starter’s life by using short starting cycles of several seconds.
