When pushing or pulling the mower, engage the bypass linkages. The release levers are on each side of the rear of the unit below the rear engine plate.
WARNING! Bypass linkages are located close to the muffler. To prevent burns, the engine should be shut off and allowed to cool before the bypass linkage levers are handled.

Raise the deck to the highest (transport) position.
2
Pull the release levers up and out of the keyhole slots. Release the levers with the head outside the bracket and held into the bypass setting.

To reengage the linkages to drive, reverse the
