OPERATION
LOW OIL
NOTE: The low oil pressure function only works if the engine is
equipped with an oil pressure switch.
The LCD screen will alternate the letters “LO” followed by “OIL”,
followed by the meter’s accumulated time, which indicates
the engine has low oil pressure. This is common when starting
an engine. The indicator will remain active until the engine
sufficiently builds pressure after starting. If it remains on with
the engine at full speed and after a few minutes of operation,
stop the tractor immediately, check the engine oil level and
add as instructed in the Engine Operator’s Manual. If the oil
level is correct and the indicator persists, contact an authorized
service dealer.
LOW BATTERY
At startup, the battery voltage will briefly display, then changes
to accumulated hours. The letters “LO” followed by the letters
“BATT” will display, followed by the meter’s accumulated time.
“LO/BATT/TIME” is displayed on the LCD when the voltage
drops below 11.5 volts. When this occurs, the battery is in need
of a charge or the engine’s charging system is not generating
sufficient amperage. Charge the battery as instructed in the
Charging the Battery section of this manual or have the charging
system checked by your local service dealer.
AIR FILTER SERVICE
The LCD screen will display the letters “CLN” followed by
the letters “AIR”, followed by “FILT”, followed by the meter’s
accumulated time. “CLN/AIR/FILT/TIME” will alternate on the
display for 7 minutes after the meter reaches 25 hours. This air
filter service minder time interval will be every 25 hours. On
intervals that are common with oil service, the oil message will
be displayed first followed by the air filter message.
M. FUEL TANK CAP
Turn the fuel cap at least two clicks counter-clockwise and pull
upward to remove. The fuel cap is tethered to the fuel tank to
prevent its loss. Do not attempt to remove the cap from the fuel
tank. Fill tank to 1/2” (12.7 mm) below the bottom of the filler
neck, allowing some space in the tank for fuel expansion. Do not
overfill the tank. The fuel tank holds approximately 3 gallons
(11.35 L) of gasoline.
Push the cap downward on the fuel tank filler neck and turn at
least two clicks clockwise to tighten. Always re-install the fuel
cap tightly onto the fuel tank after removing.
WARNING
Never fill the fuel tank when the engine is running. If the
engine is hot from recently running, allow to cool for at
least five minutes before refueling. Highly flammable
gasoline could splash onto the engine and cause a fire.
N. STORAGE TRAY
The storage tray is located to the left of the operator’s seat.
O. CUP HOLDER
The cup holder is located to the left of the operator’s seat.
I. PTO (BLADE ENGAGE) LEVER (MANUAL PTO)
Activating the PTO (Blade Engage) Lever engages power to the
cutting deck or other (separately available) attachments. See
Engaging the PTO (Blade Engage) (Manual PTO tractors) section
for information and instructions on using the PTO.
J. TRANSMISSION BYPASS ROD
When engaged, the rod opens a bypass within the hydrostatic
transmission, which allows the tractor to be pushed short
distances by hand. Refer to the Assembly section for instructions
on using the bypass feature.
CAUTION
Never tow your tractor. Towing the tractor with the
rear wheels on the ground may cause severe damage to
the transmissions.
K. PARK BRAKE/CRUISE CONTROL LEVER
The park brake/
cruise control
lever is used
to engage the
park brake
and the cruise
control. Refer to the Driving the Tractor section of this manual for
detailed instructions regarding the park brake.
NOTE: The park brake must be set if the operator leaves the
seat with the engine running or the engine will automatically
shut off.
NOTE: Cruise control CANNOT be engaged at the tractor’s fastest
ground speed.
L. HOUR METER
LCD SERVICE MINDER & HOUR METER (IF EQUIPPED)
The LCD service minder
will remind the operator of
maintenance intervals for
changing the engine oil, air
filter service, low engine
and low battery warnings.
When the key is rotated
out of the STOP position but is not in the START position, the
LCD Service Minder & Hour Meter will briefly display the battery
voltage, followed by the tractor’s accumulated hours.
NOTE: When the ignition key is out of the STOP position the
hourglass symbol is illuminated/blinks to indicate it is recording
the hours of tractor operation, regardless of whether the engine
has been started.
CHANGE OIL
The LCD screen will alternate the letters “CHG”, followed by “OIL”,
followed by “SOON”, followed by the meter’s accumulated time.
“CHG/OIL/SOON/TIME” will alternate on the display for 7 minutes
after the meter reaches 50 hours. This oil service minder interval
will occur every 50 hours. Before the interval expires, change the
engine oil as instructed in the Engine Operator’s Manual.
