NOTE: References to LEFT, RIGHT, FRONT, and REAR indicate that 

position on the tractor when facing forward while seated in the 

operator’s seat. 

The deck height index consists of six index notches located 

on the front/right of the seat box frame. Each notch 

corresponds to a 1⁄2” change in the deck height position 

ranging from 1-1⁄2” at the lowest  notch to 4” at the highest 

notch.

The deck lift handle is located on the front/right of the seat 

box frame, and is used to raise and lower the mower deck.
Pull the handle to the left out of the index notch and push 

downward to lower the deck, or pull upward to raise the 

deck. When the desired height is attained, move the lift 

handle to the right until fully in the index notch.

The RH and LH control levers are located on each side of the 

operator’s seat. These hinged levers pivot outward to open 

space to permit the operator to either  sit in the tractor seat, or to 

dismount the tractor. The levers must be fully opened out and in 

the neutral position to start the tractor engine.
Each lever controls the respective RH or LH transmission. 

Consequently, these levers control all of the movements of the 

tractor. Driving and steering utilizing these control levers is 

quite different from conventional tractors, and will take some 

practice to master. Refer to Operation for instructions on using 

the control levers.
