OPERATION

Mowing Tips

Observe and ag rocks and other xed objects
to avoid collisions.
Begin with a high cutting height and reduce it
until the desired mowing result is attained. The
average lawn must be cut to 2-1/2" during the
cool season and over 3" during the hot months.
For healthier and better looking lawns, mow
often after moderate growth.
For best cutting performance, grass over 6" in
height must be mowed twice. Make the rst cut
relatively high; the second to the desired height.
The mowing result will be best with a high
engine speed (the blades rotate rapidly) and
low speed (the rider moves slowly). If the grass
is not too long and dense, the driving speed can
be increased without negatively affecting the
mowing result.
The nest lawns are obtained by mowing
often. The lawn becomes more even and the
grass clippings more equally distributed over
the mown area. The total time taken is not
increased as a higher operating speed can be
used without poor mowing results.
When mowing large areas, start by turning to
the right so that clippings will discharge away
from shrubs, fences, driveways, etc. After one
or two rounds, mow in the opposite direction
making left hand turns until nished.
Avoid mowing wet lawns. The mowing result
is poorer because the wheels sink into the soft
lawn, clumps build, and grass clippings fasten
under the cowling.
Hose the mower deck underside with water
after each use. When cleaning, the mower deck
shall be raised into the transport position. Make
sure the mower is cooled and the engine is off.
Use compressed air to clean top surface of
the deck. Avoid ooding water on top surface,
engine and electrical components.
When the mulching kit is used, it is important
that the mowing interval is frequent.
WARNING! Make no adjustments
without:
the engine stopped,
the ignition key removed,
the park brake activated

Moving Machine By Hand

When pushing or pulling the mower, engage the
EZT bypass linkages. The EZT bypass linkages
are located on the rear of the frame, below the
rear engine guard.
1. Raise the deck into the highest cutting
position.
2. Move the steering / park brake controls
inwards to the neutral position.
3. Pull the EZT bypass linkages up and out of
the keyhole slots. Release the levers with the
head outside the frame and held in the bypass
position.
4. To reengage the EZT’s to drive, reverse the
above procedure.
Load the machine into truck or trailer by driving
slowly up the ramps. DO NOT LIFT! The machine
is not intended to be lifted by hand.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION To manually
push the mower, engage the hydro bypass
levers on both sides, pull both steering / park
brake controls inwards and push machine.
WARNING! Bypass linkages are located
close to the mufer. To prevent burns, the
engine should be shut off and allowed to cool
before the bypass linkage levers are handled.
WARNING! Use more caution when
loading the machine into a truck or trailer using
ramps. There is the possibility of dangerous
injury or death if the machine falls off the
ramps.
