CONTROLS
Motion Control Levers
The machine’s speed and direction are continuously variable using the two steering controls. The steering controls can be moved forward or backward about a neutral position. Furthermore, there is a neutral position, which is locked if the steering controls are moved outward.
When both controls are in the neutral position (N), the machine stands still.
By moving both controls an equal amount forward or backward, the machine moves in a straight line forward or backward respectively.
In order, for example, to turn right while moving forward, move the right control towards the neutral position. The rotation of the right wheel is reduced and the machine turns to the right.
Zero turn can be achieved by moving one control backward (behind the neutral position) and carefully moving the other steering control forward from its neutral position. The rotation direction when zero turning is determined by which steering control is moved backward behind the neutral position. If the left steering control is pulled backward, the machine turns to the left. Use extra care when using this maneuver.
If the steering controls are in uneven positions when standing still or do not fit in the slots for moving the controls outward, they can be adjusted.
Steering controls
WARNING!
The machine can turn very rapidly if one steering control is moved much further forward than the other.

Fuel Tank
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
It is recommended that fuel be added to both tanks on initial start up.
Read the safety instructions before refueling. The machine has two fuel tanks, one on each side just behind the seat. The capacity for each tank is 5.5 gallons (20.5 liters).
Regularly check the gas cap gasket for damage and keep the cap properly tightened.
The engine will run on a minimum of 87-octane unleaded gasoline (no oil mix). Environmentally adapted alkylate gasoline can be used. See Technical
Data concerning ethanol fuel. Methanol fuel is not allowed. Do not use E85 alcohol based fuel. Damage to the engine and components may occur.
When operating in temperatures below 32° F. (0° C.), use fresh, clean winter grade gasoline to help insure good cold weather starting.
Gasoline fuel tanks
WARNING!
Gasoline is highly flammable. Observe caution and fill the tank outdoors (see
the Safety section).
WARNING!
The engine and the exhaust system become very hot during operation.
Risk for burns if touched.
Allow engine and exhaust system to cool before refueling.
8065-007
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel the next season. See Storage Instructions for additional information. Never use engine or carburetor cleaners in the fuel tank or permanent damage may occur.
WARNING!
Fill to bottom of filler neck. Do not overfill. Wipe off any spilled oil or fuel.
Do not store, spill or use gasoline near an open flame.

OPERATION
Read the Safety section and the following pages if you are unfamiliar with the machine.
Training
Due to unique steering capabilities, zero turn mowers are far more maneuverable than typical riding mowers.
This section should be reviewed in its entirety prior to attempting to move the mower under its own power.
When first operating the mower or until becoming comfortable with controls, use a reduced throttle speed and reduced ground speed. DO NOT move control levers to the furthest forward or reverse positions during initial operation.
First time users should become familiar with the mower’s movement on a hard surface, such as concrete or blacktop PRIOR to attempting to operate on turf. Until the operator becomes comfortable with the mower controls and zero turning capability, overly aggressive maneuvers may damage turf.
Steering
To move forward and backward
The direction and speed of the mower’s movements is effected by the movement of the control lever(s) on each side of mower. The left control lever controls the left wheel. The right control lever controls the right wheel.
line. Pull back on control levers to the neutral position and mower should stop moving. Pull back slightly on control levers, this will allow mower to start moving backwards. Push forward on control levers to the neutral position and mower should stop moving.
To turn to the right
While moving in a forward direction, pull the right lever back towards the neutral position while maintaining the position of the left lever, this will slow the rotation of the right wheel and cause the machine to turn in that direction.
To turn to the left
While moving in a forward direction pull the left lever back towards the neutral position while maintaining the position of the right lever, this will slow the rotation of the left wheel and cause the machine to turn in that direction.
To zero turn
While moving in a forward direction, first pull both control levers back until the mower stops or slows dramatically.
Then by alternating one lever slightly to the forward position and the other in the reverse position, complete the turn.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
When control levers are in the reverse position they return to neutral when released. This may cause the mower to suddenly stop.
First time users should push mower (see Moving
Machine By Hand in the Operation section) to an open, flat area, without other people or vehicles or obstacles nearby. To move unit under its own power, the operator must be in the seat, start engine (see
Before Starting in the Operation section), adjust engine speed to idle, disengage parking brake, do not engage blades at this time, rotate control levers inward. As long as the control levers have not been moved forward or backwards, mower will not move.
Slowly move both control levers forward slightly. This will allow mower to start moving forward in a straight

Mowing Tips
• Observe and flag rocks and other fixed objects to avoid collisions.
• Begin with a high cutting height and reduce it until the desired mowing result is attained. The average lawn should be cut to 2½" (64 mm) during the cool season and over 3" (76 mm) during the hot months. For healthier and better looking lawns, mow often after moderate growth.
• For best cutting performance, grass over 6" (15 cm) in height should be mowed twice. Make the first cut relatively high; the second to the desired height.
• The mowing result will be best with a high engine speed (the blades rotate rapidly) and low speed
(the rider moves slowly). If the grass is not too long and dense, the driving speed can be increased without negatively affecting the mowing result.
• The finest lawns are obtained by mowing often.
The lawn becomes more even and the grass clippings more evenly distributed over the mown area. The total time taken is not increased as a higher operating speed can be used without poor mowing results.
• Avoid mowing wet lawns. The mowing result is poorer because the wheels sink into the soft lawn, clumps build, and the grass clippings fasten under the cowling.
• Hose the mower deck underside with water after each use. When cleaning, the mower deck shall be raised into the transport position. Make sure the mower is cooled and the engine is off.
• Use compressed air to clean top surface of the deck. Avoid flooding water on top surface, engine and electrical components.
• When the mulching kit is used, it is important that the mowing interval is frequent and that the deck is cleaned more often.
Mowing pattern
WARNING!
Clear the lawn of stones and other objects that can be thrown out by the blades.
WARNING!
Never drive the rider on terrain that slopes more than 10 degrees. Mow slopes up and down, never side to side. Avoid sudden directional changes.

MAINTENANCE
Anti-scalp Rollers
Anti-scalp rollers keep the deck in the proper position to help prevent scalping in most terrain conditions. Do not adjust the rollers to support the deck.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Adjust anti-scalp rollers with the mower on a flat level surface.
To avoid deck damage, the anti-scalp rollers must not be adjusted to support the deck.
The anti-scalp rollers can be set in three positions:
• Upper position 25 to 63 mm (1 to 2½") grass.
• Middle position 63 to 102 mm (2½" to 4") grass.
• Lower position 102 to 127 mm (4" to 5") grass.
Deck Lift Spring
When mowing 50mm (2") or lower, it may be necessary to adjust the deck lift springs. Access the springs by tilting the seat forward.
Loosen the nut to adjust the spring tension.

MAINTENANCE
Hardware
Check daily. Inspect the entire machine for loose or missing hardware.
Cleaning
Regular cleaning and washing, especially under the mower deck, will increase the machine’s life-span.
Make it a habit to clean the machine directly after use
(after it is cooled), before the dirt sticks.
Do not spray water on the top of the mower deck. Use compressed air to clean the top side of mower deck.
Regularly clean deck and underside of the deck with normal water pressure. Do not use a high pressure washer or steam cleaner. Avoid spraying engine and electrical components with water.
Do not rinse hot surfaces with cold water. Let unit cool before washing.
Use protective glasses when cleaning and washing.

General
Remove the ignition key to prevent unintentional movements during lubrication.
When lubricating with an oil can, it must be filled with engine oil.
When lubricating with grease, unless otherwise stated, use high grade molybdenum disulphide grease.
For daily use, the machine should be lubricated twice weekly.
Wipe away excess grease after lubrication.
It is important to avoid getting lubricant on the belts or the drive surfaces on the belt pulleys. Should this happen, attempt to clean them with spirits. If the belt continues to slip after cleaning, it must be replaced.
Gasoline or other petroleum products must not be used to clean belts.
LUBRICATION
Wheel and Deck Zerks
Use only good quality bearing grease.
Grease from well-known brand names (petrochemical companies, etc.) usually maintains a good quality.
Front Wheel Mount
Remove dust cap to expose zerk. Lubricate with a grease gun until the grease is forced out around the top washer.
Front Wheel Bearings
Lubricate 3-4 strokes with a grease gun on each set of wheel bearings.
Lubricating front wheels
Deck Spindle
Lower the cutting deck completely.
If a grease gun without rubber hose is used, the foot plate must be removed.
Lubricate with a grease gun, 2-3 strokes per spindle.
8065-032
8065-033
Cables
If possible, grease both ends of the cables and move the controls to end stop positions when lubricating.
Refit the rubber covers on the cables after lubrication.
Cables with sheaths will bind if they are not lubricated regularly. If a cable binds, it can disrupt operation.
If a cable binds, remove the cable and hang it vertically. Lubricate it with light engine oil until the oil begins to escape from the bottom.

LUBRICATION
Hydraulic Drive
Fluid and Filter Change
The hydraulic drive is designed with an external filter for ease of maintenance. To ensure constant fluid quality levels and longer life, an oil filter change interval of every 500 hours is recommended.
The following procedure can be performed with the pump installed in the vehicle, and the vehicle on level ground.
1. Lock the vehicle parking brake.
2. Place an oil drain pan with a 2 gallon capacity beneath the oil reservoir. Remove the drain port and drain oil. Remove the oil filter from the pump.
Drain old oil filters of all free-flowing oil prior to disposal. Place used oil in appropriate containers and dispose of it in accordance with laws in your area.

4. Prefill the oil filter with new oil and install the new filter by hand. Turn ¾ to one full turn after the filter gasket contacts the filter base surface.
5. Fill reservoir with synthetic 15W 50 oil to the level of the lower hole in the fill tube. DO NOT fill above the level of the upper hole. After purging, check levels and add oil if necessary.
6. Reinstall the reservoir cap by hand. Do not overtighten.
7. Proceed to the purge procedure.

Transmission Purging Procedures
Due to the effects air has on efficiency in hydrostatic drive applications, it is critical to purge the system.
These purge procedures should be implemented any time a hydrostatic system has been opened to facilitate maintenance or any additional oil has been added to the system.
Resulting symptoms in hydrostatic systems may be:
• Noisy operation.
• Lack of power or drive after short term operation.
• High operation temperature and excessive expansion of oil.
Before starting, make sure the oil tank is at the proper oil level. If not, fill to the specifications outlined in this section.
The following procedures are best performed with the vehicle drive wheels off the ground, then repeated under normal operating conditions.
1. Disengage the brake if activated.
2. With the bypass valve open and the engine running at fast idle, slowly move the directional control in both forward and reverse directions (5 or 6 times). As air is purged from the unit, the oil level will drop.
3. With the bypass valve closed and the engine running, slowly move the directional control in both forward and reverse directions (5 to 6 times).
Check the oil level and add oil as required after stopping the engine.
4. It may be necessary to repeat Steps 2 and 3 until all the air is completely purged from the system.
When the hydraulic drive operates at normal noise levels and moves smoothly forward and reverse at normal speeds, the hydraulic drive is considered purged.
5. After the vehicle has been used two times, the oil level should be checked while the oil is cold and adjusted accordingly.

STORAGE
Winter Storage
The machine should be readied for storage at the end of the mowing season or if it will not be in use for longer than 30 days.
Fuel allowed to stand for long periods of time (30 days or more) can leave sticky residues that can plug the carburetor and disrupt engine function.
Fuel stabilizers are an acceptable option as regards to the sticky residues that can occur during storage.
Add stabilizer to the fuel in the tank or in the storage container. Always use the mixing ratios specified by the manufacturer of the stabilizer. Run the engine for at least 10 minutes after adding the stabilizer so that it reaches the carburetor. Do not empty the fuel tank and the carburetor if a stabilizer has been added.
WARNING!
Never store an engine with fuel in the tank indoors or in poorly ventilated spaces where fuel vapor can come in contact with open flames, sparks, or a pilot light such as in a boiler, hot water tank, clothes drier, etc. Handle the fuel with care. It is very flammable and can cause serious personal injury and property damage. Drain the fuel into an approved container outdoors and far away from open flame. Never use gasoline for cleaning. Use a degreaser and warm water.
To ready the machine for storage, follow these steps:
1. Thoroughly clean the machine, especially under the mower deck. Touch up damage to the paint and spray a thin layer of oil on the underside of the mower deck to avoid corrosion.
2. Inspect the machine for worn or damaged parts and tighten any nuts or screws that may have become loose.
3. Change the engine oil; dispose of properly.
4. Empty the fuel tanks or add a fuel stabilizer. Start the engine and allow it to run until the carburetor is drained of fuel or the stabilizer has reached the carburetor.
5. Remove the spark plug and pour about a tablespoon of engine oil into the cylinder. Turn over the engine so that the oil is evenly distributed and then refit the spark plug.
6. Lubricate all grease zerks, joints, and axles.
7. Remove the battery. Clean, charge, and store the battery in a cool place, but protect it from direct cold.
8. Store the machine in a clean, dry place and cover it for extra protection.
Service
When ordering spare parts, please specify the purchase year, model, type, and serial number.
Always use genuine Husqvarna spare parts.
An annual check-up at an authorized service workshop is a good way to ensure that the machine performs its best the following season.
