Transmission Bypass Valves (Not Shown)
The transmission bypass valves (one for each the RH and LH
transmission) are located just in front of the engine and just
behind the seat.
When engaged, the two valves open a bypass within the
hydrostatic transmissions, which allows the tractor to be pushed
short distances by hand. Refer to the Maintenance & Adjustments
section for instructions on using the bypass feature.
CAUTION:
Never tow your tractor. Towing the
tractor with the rear wheels on the ground may
cause severe damage to the transmissions.
Hydrostatic Pumps and Motors
The pumps are located behind the seat and are the hardest-
working components in the hydraulic system. They are in
operation all the time the engine is running. The pumps and
motors serve as the sytem that propels the tractor's drive system.
Front Skirts
The front skirts are located on the front of the deck
and help lift the grass for precision cutting or can be
raised to allow for the cutting of large volumes of
grass. See the Maintenance & Adjustments section for
more information on adjusting the front skirt.
