Moving Machine By Hand

Bypass Linkages

When pushing or pulling the mower, engage the IZT
(Integrated Zeroturn Transaxle) bypass linkages with
the hydro release levers. The levers are located on
each side of the rear of the unit below the rear engine
plate.
1. Raise the deck to the highest (transport) position.
2. Pull the release levers up and out of the keyhole
slots. Release the levers with the head outside the
bracket and held into the bypass setting.
3. To reengage the IZTs to drive, reverse the above
procedure.
Load the machine into truck or trailer by driving up
ramps in low gear. DO NOT LIFT! The machine is not
intended to be lifted by hand.
WARNING!
Use extreme caution when loading the
machine into a truck or trailer using
ramps. There is the possibility of
serious injury or death if the machine
falls off the ramps.
WARNING!
Bypass linkages are located close
to the muffler. To prevent burns, the
engine should be shut off and allowed
to cool before the bypass linkage
levers are handled.
WARNING!
No adjustments or maintenance
should be carried out unless:
• the engine stopped
• the ignition key removed
• the parking brake activated
