HOW TO USE YOUR TRACTOR

"Your tractor is equipped with an operator
presence sensing switch. When engine is
running, any attempt by the operator to leave
the seat without first setting the parking brake
will shut off the engine.

release pressure from brake pedal (B),
then release parking brake lever. Pedal

sure parking brakewill hold tractor secure.
NOTE: Failure to move throttle control
between half and full speed (fast) posi-
tion, before stopping, may cause engine
to "backfire".
• Turn ignition key (F) to "STOP" position
and remove key° Always remove key when
leaving tractor to prevent unauthorized
use,
- Never use choke (N) to stop engine.
IMPORTANT: Leaving the ignition switch in
any position other than "STOP" will cause
the battery to discharge and go dead.

is standing idle with the engine running, hot
engine exhaust gases may cause "brown-
ing" of grass. To eliminate this possibility,
always stop engine when stopping tractor
