Operating Safety
Congratulations on purchasing a superior-quality piece of lawn and garden
equipment. Our products are designed and manufactured to meet or ex-
ceed all industry standards for safety.
Power equipment is only as safe as the operator. If it is misused, or not
properly maintained, it can be dangerous! Remember, you are responsible
for your safety and that of those around you.
Use common sense, and think through what you are doing. If you are not
sure that the task you are about to perform can be safely done with the
equipment you have chosen, ask a professional: contact your local autho-
rized dealer.
Read the Manual
The operator’s manual contains important safety information you
need to be aware of BEFORE you operate your unit as well as
DURING operation.
Safe operating techniques, an explanation of the product’s features
and controls, and maintenance information is included to help you
get the most out of your equipment investment.
Be sure to completely read the Safety Rules and Information found
on the following pages. Also completely read the Operation section.
Children
Tragic accidents can occur with children. Do not allow them
anywhere near the area of operation. Children are often at-
tracted to the unit and mowing activity. Never assume that
children will remain where you last saw them. If there is a
risk that children may enter the area where you are mowing,
have another responsible adult watch them.
DO NOT GIVE CHILDREN RIDES ON THIS UNIT! This
encourages them to come near the unit in the future while it
is running, and they could be seriously hurt. They may then
approach the unit for a ride when you are not expecting it,
and you may run over them.
Reverse
Do not mow in reverse unless abso-
lutely necessary. Always look down
and behind before and
while traveling in reverse
even with the mower
blades disengaged.

OPERATOR SAFETY
Slope Operation
You could be seriously injured or even killed if you use this unit on too
steep an incline. Using the unit on a slope that is too steep or where you
don’t have adequate traction can cause you to lose control or roll over.
A good rule of thumb is to not operate on any slope you cannot back up
(in 2-wheel drive mode). You should not operate on inclines with a slope
greater than a 3.5 ft (1,5 m) rise over a 20.0 ft (6,0 m) length. Always
drive up and down slopes: never cross the face.
Also note that the surface you are driving on can greatly impact stability
and control. Wet grass or icy pavement can seriously a ect your ability to
control the unit.
If you feel unsure about operating the unit on an incline, don’t do it. It’s
not worth the risk.
Moving Parts
This equipment has many moving parts that can injure you or someone else.
However, if you are seated in the seat properly, and follow all the rules in this
book, the unit is safe to operate.
The mower deck has spinning mower blades that can amputate hands and
feet. Do not allow anyone near the equipment while it is running!
To help you, the operator, use this equipment safely, it is equipped with an
operator-present safety system. Do NOT attempt to alter or bypass the system.
See your dealer immediately if the system does not pass all the safety interlock
system tests found in this manual.
Thrown Objects
This unit has spinning mower blades. These blades can pick up and throw debris
that could seriously injure a bystander. Be sure to clean up the area to be mowed
BEFORE you start mowing.
Do not operate this unit without the entire grass catcher or discharge guard (de-
ector) in place.
Also, do not allow anyone in the area while the unit is running! If someone does
enter the area, shut the unit o immediately until they leave.
Fuel and Maintenance
Gasoline is extremely ammable. Its vapors are also extremely ammable and
can travel to distant ignition sources. Gasoline must only be used as a fuel, not
as a solvent or cleaner. It should never be stored any place where its vapors can
build up or travel to an ignition source like a pilot light. Fuel belongs in an ap-
proved, plastic, sealed gas can, or in the tractor fuel tank with the cap securely
closed. Spilled fuel needs to be cleaned up immediately.
Proper maintenance is critical to the safety and performance of your unit. Be sure
to perform the maintenance procedures listed in this manual, especially periodi-
cally testing the safety system.

GENERAL OPERATION
1. Read, understand, and follow all instructions in the man-
ual and on the unit before starting.
2. Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts or under
the machine. Keep clear of the discharge opening at all
times.
3. Only allow responsible adults, who are familiar with the
instructions, to operate the unit (local regulations can
restrict operator age).
4. Clear the area of objects such as rocks, toys, wire, etc.,
which could be picked up and thrown by the blade(s).
5. Be sure the area is clear of other people before mowing.
Stop the unit if anyone enters the area.
6. Never carry passengers.
7. Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Al-
ways look down and behind before and while travelling
in reverse.
8. Never direct discharge material toward anyone. Avoid
discharging material against a wall or obstruction. Ma-
terial may ricochet back toward the operator. Stop the
blade(s) when crossing gravel surfaces.
9. Do not operate the machine without the entire grass
catcher, discharge guard (de ector), or other safety de-
vices in place.
10. Slow down before turning.
11. Never leave a running unit unattended. Always disen-
gage the PTO, set parking brake, stop engine, and re-
move keys before dismounting.
12. Disengage blades (PTO) when not mowing. Shut o en-
gine and wait for all parts to come to a complete stop be-
fore cleaning the machine, removing the grass catcher,
or unclogging the discharge guard.
13. Operate the machine only in daylight or good arti cial
light.
14. Do not operate the unit while under the in uence of alco-
hol or drugs.
15 Watch for tra c when operating near or crossing road-
ways.
16. Use extra care when loading or unloading the unit into a
trailer or truck.
17. Always wear eye protection when operating this unit.
18. Data indicates that operators, age 60 years and above,
are involved in a large percentage of power equipment-
related injuries. These operators should evaluate their
ability to operate the equipment safely enough to protect
themselves and others from injury.
19. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for wheel
weights or counterweights.
20. Keep in mind the operator is responsible for accidents
occurring to other people or property.
21. All drivers should seek and obtain professional and
practical instruction.
22. Always wear substantial footwear and trousers. Never
operate when barefoot or wearing sandals.
23. Before using, always visually check that the blades and
blade hardware are present, intact, and secure. Re-
place worn or damaged parts.
24. Disengage attachments before: refueling, removing an
attachment, making adjustments (unless the adjustment
can be made from the operator’s position).
25. When the machine is parked, stored, or left unattended,
lower the cutting means unless a positive mechanical
lock is used.
26. Before leaving the operator’s position for any reason,
engage the parking brake (if equipped), disengage the
PTO, stop the engine, and remove the key.
27. To reduce re hazard, keep the unit free of grass,
leaves, & excess oil. Do not stop or park over dry
leaves, grass, or combustible materials.
28. It is a violation of California Public Resource Code Sec-
tion 4442 to use or operate the engine on or near any
forest-covered, brush-covered, or grass-covered land
unless the exhaust system is equipped with a spark ar-
rester meeting any applicable local or state laws. Other
states or federal areas may have similar laws.
Read these safety rules and follow them closely. Failure to obey these rules could result in loss of control of
unit, severe personal injury or death to you, or bystanders, or damage to property or equipment. This mowing
deck is capable of amputating hands and feet and throwing objects. The triangle in text signi es important
cautions or warnings which must be followed.
TRANSPORTING AND STORAGE
1. When transporting the unit on an open trailer, make sure
it is facing forward, in the direction of travel. If the unit is
facing backwards, wind lift could damage the unit.
2. Always observe safe refueling and fuel handling prac-
tices when refueling the unit after transportation or stor-
age.
3. Never store the unit (with fuel) in an enclosed poorly
ventilated structure. Fuel vapors can travel to an ignition
source (such as a furnace, water heater, etc.) and cause
an explosion. Fuel vapor is also toxic to humans and
animals.
4. Always follow the engine manual instructions for stor-
age preparations before storing the unit for both short
and long term periods.
5. Always follow the engine manual instructions for proper
start-up procedures when returning the unit to service.
6. Never store the unit or fuel container inside where there
is an open ame or pilot light, such as in a water heater.
Allow unit to cool before storing.

OPERATOR SAFETY
CHILDREN
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the
presence of children. Children are often attracted to the unit
and the mowing activity. Never assume that children will re-
main where you last saw them.
1. Keep children out of the mowing area and under the
watchful care of another responsible adult.
2. Be alert and turn unit o if children enter the area.
3. Before and during reverse operation, look behind and
down for small children.
4. Never carry children, even with the blade(s) o . They
may fall o and be seriously injured or interfere with
safe unit operation. Children who have been given
rides in the past may suddenly appear in the mowing
area for another ride and be run over or backed over by
the machine.
5. Never allow children to operate the unit.
6. Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs,
trees, or other objects that may obscure vision.
EMISSIONS
1. Engine exhaust from this product contains chemicals
known, in certain quantities, to cause cancer, birth de-
fects, or other reproductive harm.
2. Look for the relevant Emissions Durability Period and
Air Index information on the engine emissions label.
IGNITION SYSTEM
1. This spark ignition system complies with Canadian
ICES-002.
SLOPE OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tip-
over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Op-
eration on all slopes requires extra caution. If you cannot back
up the slope or if you feel uneasy on it, do not operate on it.
Control of a walk-behind or ride-on machine sliding on a
slope will not be regained by the application of the brake. The
main reasons for loss of control are: insu cient tire grip on
the ground, speed too fast, inadequate braking, the type of
machine is unsuitable for its task, lack of awareness of the
ground conditions, incorrect hitching and load distribution.
1. Mow up and down slopes, not across.
2. Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Uneven terrain could
overturn the unit. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
3. Choose a slow speed so that you will not have to stop or
change speeds while on the slope.
4. Do not mow on wet grass. Tires may loose traction.
5. Always keep unit in gear especially when traveling down
slopes. Do not shift to neutral and coast downhill.
6. Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a slope. If tires
lose traction, disengage the blade(s) and proceed slowly
straight down the slope.
7. Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Do
not make sudden changes in speed or direction, which
could cause the machine to rollover.
8. Use extra care while operating machines with grass
catchers or other attachments; they can a ect the stabil-
ity of the unit. Do not use on steep slopes.
9. Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot
on the ground (ride-on units).
10. Do not mow near drop-o s, ditches, or embankments.
The mower could suddenly turn over if a wheel is over
the edge of a cli or ditch, or if an edge caves in.
11. Do not use grass catchers on steep slopes.
12. Do not mow slopes you cannot back up them.
13. See your authorized dealer/retailer for recommendations
of wheel weights or counterweights to improve stability.
14. Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree limbs, etc.
15. Use slow speed. Tires may lose traction on slopes even
through the brakes are functioning properly.
16. Do not turn on slopes unless necessary, and then, turn
slowly and gradually downhill, if possible.
TOWED EQUIPMENT (RIDE-ON UNITS)
1. Tow only with a machine that has a hitch designed for
towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the
hitch point.
2. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for weight
limit for towed equipment and towing on slopes.
3. Never allow children or others in or on towed equipment.
4. On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may
cause loss of traction and loss of control.
5. Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.
6. Do not shift to neutral and coast down hill.
WARNING
Never operate on slopes greater than 17.6 percent (10°)
which is a rise of 3-1/2 feet (106 cm) vertically in 20 feet
(607 cm) horizontally.
When operating on slopes use additional wheel weights
or counterweights. See your dealer/retailer to determine
which weights are available and appropriate for your
unit.
Select slow ground speed before driving onto slope.
In addition to front weights, use extra caution when
operating on slopes with rear-mounted grass catchers.
Mow UP and DOWN the slope, never across the face,
use caution when changing directions and DO NOT
START OR STOP ON SLOPE.

hydro pump cooling fan, when the tractor is running.
(Hydro pump cooling fans are typically located on top of
the transaxle).
23. Units with hydraulic pumps, hoses, or motors: WARN-
ING: Hydraulic uid escaping under pressure may have
su cient force to penetrate skin and cause serious
injury. If foreign uid is injected into the skin it must be
surgically removed within a few hours by a doctor famil-
iar with this form of injury or gangrene may result. Keep
body and hands away from pin holes or nozzles that
eject hydraulic uid under high pressure. Use paper or
cardboard, and not hands, to search for leaks. Make
sure all hydraulic uid connections are tight and all hy-
draulic hoses and lines are in good condition before ap-
plying pressure to the system. If leaks occur, have the
unit serviced immediately by your authorized dealer.

MAINTENANCE
Check Mower Blade Stopping Time
Mower blades and mower drive belt should come to a com-
plete stop within ve seconds after the electric PTO switch
is turned o .
1. With tractor in neutral, PTO disengaged and operator in
seat, start the engine.
2. Look over the left-hand footrest at the mower drive belt.
Engage the PTO and wait several seconds. Disengage
the PTO and check the amount of time it takes for the
mower drive belt to stop.
3. If mower drive belt does not stop within ve seconds,
see an authorized dealer.
Check Tire Pressure
Tire pressure should be checked periodically, and maintained
at the levels shown in the chart. Note that these pressures may
di er slightly from the “Max In ation” stamped on the side-wall
of the tires. The pressures shown provide proper traction, im-
prove cut quality, and extend tire life.

Battery Maintenance
Battery Charging
WARNING
Keep open ames and sparks away from
the battery; the gasses coming from it are
highly explosive. Ventilate the battery well
during charging.
A dead battery or one too weak to start the engine may be
the result of a defect in the charging system or other electri-
cal component. If there is any doubt about the cause of the
problem, see your dealer. If you need to replace the battery,
see the Cleaning the Battery and Cables section.
To charge the battery, follow the instructions provided by
the battery charger manufacturer as well as all warnings
included in the Operator Safety section of this manual.
Charge the battery until fully charged. Do not charge at a
rate higher than 10 amps.

MAINTENANCE
Storage
WARNING
Never store the unit (with fuel) in an
enclosed, poorly ventilated structure. Fuel
vapors can travel to an ignition source (such
as a furnace, water heater, etc.) and cause
an explosion. Fuel vapor is also toxic to
humans and animals.
When Storing Fuel Or Equipment With Fuel In Tank
Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters or
other appliances that have pilot lights or other ignition
sources because they can ignite fuel vapors.
Equipment
Disengage the PTO, set the parking brake, and remove
the key.
Battery life will be increased if it is removed. Put in a cool,
dry place and fully charged about once a month. If the bat-
tery is left in the unit, disconnect the negative cable.
Fuel System
Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale
fuel causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel sys-
tem or on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh,
use Briggs & Stratton FRESH START® fuel stabilizer,
available as a liquid additive or a drip concentrate car-
tridge.
There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel
stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the en-
gine for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the
fuel system. The engine and fuel can then be stored up to
24 months.
If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel
stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container.
Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a
fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to
maintain freshness.
Engine Oil
While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil. See
Engine Manual.
Before starting the unit after it has been stored:
Check all uid levels. Check all maintenance items.
• Perform all recommended checks and procedures
found in this manual.
• Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes before
use.
