Using the Transmission Bypass Valves

If for any reason the tractor will not drive or you wish to move

the tractor, the two hydrostatic transmissions are equipped with

a bypass valve that will allow you to manually move the tractor

short distances.

WARNING! Do not tow the tractor, even with the



will result from doing so.

From just in front of the engine and just behind the seat, 

locate the transmission bypass valves. Refer to Fig. 6-6.

Using a standard 2. ⁄

clockwise one quarter turn.

Repeat the above procedure to engage the other bypass 

valve on the other side of the tractor.

After moving the tractor, return both valves to the 4.

operating position by turning the valve clockwise, but do

not overtighten.

NOTE: The tractor will not drive with the bypass valves in the

engage position.

Battery Storage

When storing the tractor for extended periods, disconnect 

the negative battery cable. It is not necessary to remove the

battery.

All batteries discharge during storage. Keep the exterior 2.

of the battery clean, especially the top. A dirty battery will

discharge more rapidly.

The battery must be stored with a full charge. A discharged 

battery can freeze sooner than a charged battery. A fully

charged battery will store longer in cold temperatures than

hot. Refer to chart below.

the tires) to protect it from the elements. The procedures

outlined below should be performed whenever the tractor is

placed in storage.

Change the engine oil and filter following the instructions 

provided in the engine manual packed with this manual.

This will prevent gum and varnish deposits

from forming. Replace the fuel filter.

Remove the spark plugs and pour approximately one 

ounce of oil into each cylinder. Crank the engine one or

two turns to spread the oil evenly on the cylinder walls.

Replace the spark plugs.
