It may be necessary to hold the lever against the stop,

in the C

HOKE

position, while trying to start the engine.

Note:

A warm or hot engine may not require choking.

Important:

Do not engage the starter for more than

5 seconds at a time. Engaging the starter motor for
more than 5 seconds can damage the starter motor. If

The parking brake is activated electronically.

Engage the parking brake by one of the following actions:

Pressing the SmartPark

switch to the O

N

position

(

Figure 5

).

The parking brake engages automatically when the
operator leaves the seat and the traction control pedal is
in the neutral position.

The parking brake automatically engages 5 to 6 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned to the O

FF

position (if

not already engaged).

Disengage the parking brake by one of the following actions:

Tap the traction-control pedal forward or reverse.

Pressing the brake switch to the O

FF

position (

Figure 5

).

Operating the Blades

The blade-control switch, represented by a power take-off
(PTO) symbol, engages and disengages power to the mower
blades. This switch controls power to any attachments that
draw power from the engine, including the mower deck and
cutting blades.

Engaging the Blades

Important:

Do not engage the blades when parked in

tall grass. Belt or clutch damage can occur.

Note:

Always engage the blades with the throttle in the

F

AST

position.
