WARNING
The engine and hydraulic drive units can become
very hot. Touching a hot engine or hydraulic drive
units can cause severe burns.
Allow the engine and hydraulic drive units to cool
completely before accessing the drive wheel release
valves.
The drive wheel release valves are located in the back of
each hydraulic drive unit, under the seat.
Note: Make sure the release valves are in the fully
horizontal position when operating the machine or
severe damage to the hydraulic system can occur.
1. Disengage the PTO (blade control switch) and turn
the ignition key to off. Move the levers to neutral
locked position and apply parking brake. Remove
the key.

machine. This allows hydraulic oil to by-pass the
pump enabling the wheels to turn (Figure 37).
