Each row (across) in the logic chart below identifies
input and output requirements for each specific
product function. Product functions are listed in
Note: - Indicates a circuit closed to ground. - LED ON
O Indicates a circuit open to ground or de-energized - LED OFF
+ Indicates an energized circuit (clutch coil, solenoid, or start input) LED ON.
" " A Blank indicates a circuit that is not involved with the logic.
To troubleshoot, turn on the key without starting
the engine. Identify the specific function that does
not work and work across the logic chart. Inspect
the condition of each input LED's to ensure it
matches the logic chart.
If the input LED's are correct, check the output
LED. If the output LED is illuminated but the
device is not energized, measure available voltage
at the output device, continuity of the disconnected
device, and potential voltage on the ground circuit
(floating ground). Repairs will vary depending on
your findings.
Operating Tips
Mow When Grass is Dry
Mow either in the late morning to avoid the dew, which
causes grass clumping, or in late afternoon to avoid the
damage that can be caused by direct sunlight on the
sensitive, freshly mowed grass.
Select the Proper Height-of-Cut
Setting to Suit Conditions
Remove approximately 1 in. (25 mm) or no more than
1/3 of the grass blade when cutting. In exceptionally
lush and dense grass, you may have to raise the
height-of-cut to the next setting.
Mow at Proper Intervals
Under most normal conditions you will need to mow
approximately every 4-5 days. But remember, grass

condition including: energized to voltage, closed to
ground, and open to ground.
grows at different rates at different times. This means
that in order to maintain the same height-of-cut, which
is a good practice, you will need to cut more frequently
in early spring; as the grass growth rate slows in mid
summer, cut only every 8-10 days. If you are unable to
mow for an extended period due to weather conditions
or other reasons, mow first with the height-of-cut at a
high level; then mow again 2-3 days later with a lower
height setting.
Blade Selection
Standard Angled Sail
The blade generally performs best in lower heights of
cut (3/4 to 2-1/2 inch). The optional high lift parallel
sail blade performs better in the higher heights of cut
(2 to 4 inch). Its attributes are as follows:
•
Discharge remains more even at lower heights of
cut.
•
Discharge has less tendency to throw left and thus
a cleaner look around bunkers and fairways.
•
Lower power requirement at lower heights and
dense turf.
High Lift Parallel Sail
The blade generally performs better in the higher
heights of cut (2 to 4 inch). Its attributes are as follows:
•
More lift and higher discharge velocity.
•
Sparse or limp turf is picked up significantly at
higher heights of cut.
•
Wet or sticky clippings are discharged more
efficiently reducing congestion in deck.
