Throttle/Choke Control
The throttle and choke is combined into one control
lever. The throttle controls the engine speed and it has a
continuous variable setting from Slow to Fast. Engage
the choke by moving the lever past the Fast setting until
it stops (Figure 7).
Blade Control Switch (Power Take-Off)
The blade control switch, represented by a power
take-off (PTO) symbol, engages and disengages power
to the mower blades (Figure 7).
DFS (Dump From Seat ) Lever
The DFS (Dump From Seat) lever can be operated from
the seated, operating position or while standing next to
the machine. The lever is seated loosely to allow it to
be extended to gain leverage when in use and swivels
freely to allow for minimal contact with the operating
environment (Figure 6).
Collection Sensors
Once the collection bag fills with enough grass to cover
one or both of the sensors and break the infrared beam
a beeping alarm will sound to alert the operator. The
alarm shuts off once the blade control switch is turned
Off. If one or both sensors are unplugged the mower
blades will not engage. The collection bag should
be emptied immediately. Continued operation of the
collection system with a full bag may result in plugging
of the deck adapter and discharge chute.
Operation
Note: Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.
Think Safety First
Please carefully read all of the safety instructions and
decals in the safety section. Knowing this information
could help you, your family, pets or bystanders avoid
injury.
DANGER
Mowing on wet grass or steep slopes can cause
sliding and loss of control.
Wheels dropping over edges can cause rollovers,
which may result in serious injury, death or
drowning.
To avoid loss of control and possibility of rollover:
• Do not mow near drop-offs or near water.
• Do not mow slopes greater than 15 degrees.
• Reduce speed and use extreme caution on
slopes.
• Avoid sudden turns or rapid speed changes.
1. Safe Zone-use the TimeCutter here
2. Use walk behind mower and/or hand trimmer near drop-offs
and water.
3. Water
Recommended Fuel
Use Unleaded Regular Gasoline suitable for
automotive use (87 pump octane minimum). Leaded
regular gasoline may be used if unleaded regular is not
available.
