Systems Indicator Monitor / Hour Meter

LCD

Located in the center of the tractor’s console, the

systems indicator monitor records, and displays on its

LCD, hours of tractor operation whenever the ignition

key is rotated out of the STOP position.

The Indicator Monitor will also remind the operator of

maintenance intervals for changing the engine oil. The

LCD will alternately flash the recorded hours, “CHG”

and “OIL” for five minutes, after every 50 hours of

recorded operation elapse. The maintenance interval

lasts for two hours (from 50-52, 100-102, 150-152,

etc.). The LCD will also flash as described above for

five minutes every time the tractor’s engine has been

started during this maintenance interval. Before the

interval expires, change the crankcase oil level as

instructed in this Operator’s Manual.

Brake

If the Brake light illuminates when attempting to start

the tractor’s engine, depress the brake pedal.

PTO (Blade Engage)

If the PTO light illuminates when attempting to start the

tractor’s engine, move PTO lever into the disengaged

(OFF) position.

Oil

It is normal for the Oil light to illuminate while the engine

is cranking during start-up, but if it illuminate’s during

operation, while the engine is running, stop the

tractor immediately and check the crankcase oil level

as instructed in this Owner’s Manual.

Battery

It is normal for the Battery light to illuminate while the

engine is cranking during start-up, but if it illuminate’s

during operation, while the engine is running, the

battery is in need of a charge or the engine’s charging

system is not generating sufficient amperage. Refer to

the MAINTENANCE section of this manual for the

proper battery charging procedure or have the charging

system checked by your Cub Cadet dealer.

Deck Lift Lever

Found on your tractor’s right fender, the deck lift lever is

used to change the height of the cutting deck. To use,

move the lever to the left, then place in the notch best

suited for your application.

Electric PTO /

Blade Engage Knob

To engage the power to the

cutting deck or other (separately

available) attachments, pull

outward on the PTO/Blade

Engage knob. Push the PTO/

Blade Engage knob inward to

disengage the power to the

cutting deck or other (separately available) attachment.

NOTE: The PTO/Blade Engage knob must be in the

disengaged (OFF) position when starting the engine.

Cruise Control

Lever

The cruise control

lever is located on

the tractor dash

panel, below the steering wheel. Push the cruise

control lever downward while traveling forward at a

desired speed. While holding the lever down, release

pressure from the drive pedal.

This will engage the cruise control and allow the tractor

to remain at that speed without applying pressure to the

drive pedal. Depress the brake pedal or the drive pedal

to deactivate cruise control. Refer to page 14 for

detailed instructions regarding cruise control.

NOTE: Cruise control can NOT be engaged at the

tractor’s fastest ground speed. If the operator should

attempt to do so, the tractor will automatically

decelerate to the fastest optimal mowing ground speed.

Parking Brake

Lever

To set the parking

brake, fully depress

the brake pedal and

push the parking brake lever down. Hold the lever down

while taking your foot off the brake pedal. Both the

parking lever and the brake pedal will then stay

depressed. To release the parking brake, depress the

brake pedal slightly. The parking brake lever will then

return to its original position.

IMPORTANT:

Always set the parking brake when

leaving the tractor unattended.
