Inspecting the Belts
1. Park the machine on a level surface, disengage the blade-control switch, and move the
motion-control levers outward to the P
ARK position.
2. Shut off the engine and wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
3. Set the height of cut at the lowest cutting position.

while cutting grass; and frayed edges, burn marks, and cracks on the belt.
