Do not use another vehicle to push or pull this unit. 1. Disengage the PTO, engage the parking brake, turn the ignition OFF, and remove the key. 2. Lift the seat plate to gain access to the hydraulic pumps. 3. To disengage the pumps (free-wheel position), turn the hydraulic release valves (A, Figure 2) located on the pumps COUNTER-CLOCKWISE a maximum of 2 full turns. 4. Disengage the parking brake. The tractor can now be pushed by hand. 5. After moving the tractor, re-engage the pumps (drive position) by turning the release valves CLOCKWISE and tighten to 80-120 in. lbs. of torque. A Figure 2. Hydraulic System By-Pass A. Hydraulic Release Valve (left-hand pump shown) Operation 19 Operation Operation ZERO TURN DRIVING PRACTICE The lever controls of the Zero Turn rider are responsive, and learning to gain a smooth and efficient control of the rider’s forward, reverse, and turning movements will take some practice. Spending some time going through the maneuvers shown and becoming familiar with how the unit accelerates, travels, and steers — before you begin mowing —is absolutely essential to getting the most out of the Zero Turn rider. Locate a smooth, flat area of your lawn — one with plenty of room to maneuver. (Clear the area of objects, people and animals before you begin.) Operate the unit at mid-throttle during this practice session (ALWAYS operate at full throttle when mowing), and turn slowly to prevent tire slippage and damage to your lawn. We suggest you begin with the Smooth Travel procedure to the right, and then advance through the forward, reverse, and turning maneuvers. You must release the parking brake prior to moving the control levers inward. BASIC DRIVING Forward Travel Practice Gradually move both ground speed control levers — evenly FORWARD from neutral. Slow down and repeat. NOTE:Straight forward travel takes practice.If necessary, top speed can be balance-adjusted — see the Speed Balancing Adjustment in the Adjustments section near the back of this manual. Smooth Travel The lever controls of the Zero Turn rider are responsive. The BEST method of handling the ground speed control levers is in three steps — as shown in Figure 3. FIRST place your hands onto the levers as shown. SECOND, to go forward gradually push the levers forward with your palms. THIRD, to speed up move the levers farther forward. To slow down smoothly, slowly move the levers toward neutral. Figure 3. Move Control Levers Gradually Reverse Travel Practice LOOK DOWN & BEHIND, then gradually move both ground speed control levers evenly BACK from neutral. Slow down and repeat. NOTE:Practice backing up for several minutes before attempting to do so near objects.The rider turns sharply in reverse as well as forward, and backing up straight takes practice. Forward Travel Reverse Travel Figure 4. Forward Travel Figure 5. Reverse Travel 20 Practice Turning Around a Corner While traveling forward allow one handle to gradually return back toward neutral. Repeat several times. NOTE:To prevent pivoting directly on the tire tread, it is best to keep both wheels going at least slightly forward. Operation Practice Turning In Place To turn in place, “Zero Turn,” gradually move one ground speed control lever forward from neutral and one lever back from neutral simultaneously. Repeat several times. NOTE:Changing the amount each lever is pulled— forward or back, changes the “pivot point”you turn on. Executing Turns Turning In-Place Figure 6. Turning Around a Corner Figure 7. Turning in Place ADVANCEDDRIVING Operation Executing an End-Of-Row Zero Turn Your Zero Turn Rider’s unique ability to turn in place allows you to turn around at the end of a cutting row rather than having to stop and Y-turn before starting a new row. For example, to execute a left end-of row zero turn: 1. Slow down at the end of the row. 2. Move the RIGHT ground speed control lever forward slightly while moving the LEFT ground speed control lever back to center and then slightly back from center. 3. Begin mowing forward again. This technique turns the rider LEFT and slightly overlaps the row just cut —eliminating the need to back up and re-cut missed grass. As you become more familiar and experienced with operating the Zero Turn rider, you will learn more maneuvers that will make your mowing time easier and more enjoyable. Remember, the more you practice, the better your control of the Zero Turn will be! Figure 8. Executing an End-Of-Row Turn 21 Operation MOWING 1. Engage the parking brake. Make sure the PTO switch is disengaged, the motion control levers are locked in the NEUTRAL position and the operator is on the seat. 2. Start the engine (see STARTING THE ENGINE). 3. Set the mower cutting height. 4. Set the throttle to FULL. 5. Engage the PTO by pulling up on the PTO switch. 6. Begin mowing. See Section LC for tips on mowing patterns, lawn care, and trouble shooting information. 7. When finished, shut off the PTO. 8. Stop the engine (see ST...
