Pushing the Machine
1. Disengage the power take off (PTO) and turn the
ignition key to off. Move the levers to neutral locked
position and apply parking brake. Remove the key.
2. Rotate the by-pass valves counterclockwise 1 turn
to push. This allows hydraulic fluid to by-pass the
pump enabling the wheels to turn (Figure 28).
Important: Do not rotate by-pass valves more
than 1 turn. This prevents valves from coming
out of the body and causing fluid to run out.
3. Disengage parking brake before pushing.
Changing to Machine Operation
Rotate the by-pass valves clockwise 1 turn to operate
machine (Figure 28).
Note: Do not over tighten the by-pass valves.
The machine will not drive unless by-pass valves are
turned in.

Using the Side Discharge
The mower has a hinged grass deflector that disperses
clippings to the side and down toward the turf.
3. Hydraulic pumps
Without the grass deflector, discharge cover,
or complete grass catcher assembly mounted
in place, you and others are exposed to blade
contact and thrown debris. Contact with
rotating mower blade(s) and thrown debris will
cause injury or death.
• Never remove the grass deflector from
the mower because the grass deflector
routes material down toward the turf. If the
grass deflector is ever damaged, replace it
immediately.
• Never put your hands or feet under the
mower.
• Never try to clear the discharge area or
mower blades unless you move the power
take off (PTO) to the off position, rotate the
ignition key to off and remove the key.
• Make sure the grass deflector is in the down
position.
Transporting Machines
Use a heavy-duty trailer or truck to transport the
machine. Ensure that the trailer or truck has all
necessary lighting and marking as required by law.
Please carefully read all the safety instructions.
Knowing this information could help you, your family,
pets or bystanders avoid injury.
To transport the machine:
• Lock the brake and block the wheels.
• Securely fasten the machine to the trailer or truck
with straps, chains, cable, or ropes.
• Secure a trailer to the towing vehicle with safety
chains.
Driving on the street or roadway without turn
signals, lights, reflective markings, or a slow
moving vehicle emblem is dangerous and can
lead to accidents causing personal injury.
Do not drive machine on a public street or
roadway.
