After Operation

After Operation Safety

•
Clean grass and debris from the cutting units, mufflers,
and engine compartment to help prevent fires. Clean up
oil or fuel spills.
•
If the cutting units are in the transport position, use the
positive mechanical lock (if available) before you leave the
machine unattended.
•
Allow the engine to cool before storing the machine in
any enclosure.
•
Shut off the fuel before storing or transporting the
machine.
•
Never store the machine or fuel container where there is
an open flame, spark, or pilot light, such as on a water
heater or on other appliances.
•
Keep all parts of the machine in good working condition
and all hardware tightened, especially blade-attachment
hardware.
•
Replace all worn or damaged decals.

Pushing the Machine by Hand

If the machine stalls or runs out of fuel, you may need to push
it. You must first open both of the hydraulic bypass valves.
Important: Always push the machine by hand and
never a long distance. Never tow the machine, because
damage to the hydraulic system may occur.
Pushing the Machine
1. Disengage the power takeoff (PTO), turn the key to
the O position, and engage the parking brake.
FF
2. Remove the key from the key switch. You must open
both bypass valves.
3. Lift the seat.
4. Rotate each bypass valve counterclockwise 1 turn
(Figure 28).
Note: This allows hydraulic fluid to bypass the pump,
enabling the wheels to turn.
Important: Do not rotate the bypass valves more
than 1 turn. This prevents the valves from coming
out of the body and causing fluid to run out.
5. Disengage the parking brake before pushing the
machine.
Changing to Machine Operation
1. Rotate each bypass valve clockwise 1 turn and hand
tighten them (Figure 28).
Note: Do not overtighten the bypass valves.
2. Torque the valves approximately 8 N∙m (71 in-lb) as
shown in Figure
Note: The machine does not drive unless the bypass valves
are turned in.

Hauling the Machine

•
Use care when loading or unloading the machine into a
trailer or a truck.
•
Use full-width ramps for loading the machine into a
trailer or a truck.
•
Tie the machine down securely using straps, chains, cable,
or ropes. Both front and rear straps should be directed
down and outward from the machine.
