attempting to mow. Learn the operation on flat
ground before operating on slopes.
6. Check tire pressure. Adjust pressure if necessary.
(See Section 7.10)
-IMPORTANT-
Start practicing with a slow engine speed and
slow forward travel.
4.4 STARTING THE ENGINE
Learn to feather the steering controls to obtain
a smooth operating action.
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE STARTING FLUIDS. Use of starting
fluids in the air intake system may be potentially
explosive or cause a “runaway” engine condition
that could result in engine damage and/or personal
injury.
Practice operating the mower until you are
comfortable with the controls before proceeding
to mow.
Forward Travel
To travel forward with the mower, disengage the parking
brake and slowly push the steering control levers forward
an equal distance. The further the steering control levers
are pushed forward the greater the forward speed will be.
To increase the speed, push the steering control levers
further forward and to decrease the speed, pull the
steering control levers back.
1. Be sure the fuel shutoff valve, located behind the
operator's seat, is completely open. (See section 7.5.)
2. Sit in the operator’s seat and place the steering
control levers in the neutral position.
3. Engage the parking brake.
To stop the forward travel, pull the steering control levers
back to the neutral position.
4. If the engine is cold, choke the engine as needed.
To steer the mower left while traveling forward, pull the
left steering lever back. The further the lever is pulled
back, the quicker the mower will turn left.
5. Move the engine throttle control to about half engine
speed.
6. Turn the ignition key to the START position and
release the key as soon as the engine starts. Do not
hold the key in the START position for more than 15
seconds at a time. Allow at least 60 seconds between
each cranking attempt to prevent overheating of the
starter motor. Prolonged cranking can damage the
starter motor and shorten battery life.
To steer the mower right while traveling forward, pull the
right steering control lever back. The further the lever is
pulled back, the quicker the mower will turn right.
7. Allow engine to warm before operating the mower.

produce smooth mower operation. While
learning the operation of the steering controls,
keep the travel speed low.
To stop the reverse travel, allow the steering control
levers to return to the neutral position. If the mower is to
be parked, engage the parking brake.
-IMPORTANT-
Do not travel forward over a curb. The mower
will hang up on the curb. Raise the deck and
travel backwards over the curb at a 45 degree
angle. (see section 4.13 for cutter deck raising
instructions)
4.6 ENGAGING THE DECK DRIVE (CUTTER
BLADES)
1. Set the throttle at about 3/4 speed. Do not attempt to
engage the deck drive at high speed as this shortens
the electric clutch life — use only moderate engine
speed when engaging the deck drive.
Reverse Travel
2. Engage the deck drive by pulling out on the yellow
switch, located on the instrument panel, (Figure 4-3)
to the engage position.
CAUTION:
Disengage power to the mower before backing up.
Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary and then only after observation of the
entire area behind the mower.
CAUTION:
Before backing up, observe the rear for persons
and obstructions. Clear the area before backing
up. Possible injury or property damage could
occur.
PULL UP TO ENGAGE
PUSH DOWN TO DISENGAGE
STT99CES
Figure 4-3 Cutter Engage Switch
To travel in reverse, pull both handles back. Keep the
travel speed low while traveling in reverse.
-NOTE-
A squealing noise may be heard when engaging
or disengaging the deck drive. It is caused by
the electric clutch plates meshing as the mower
comes up to speed.
-NOTE-
The mower will not travel straight in reverse.
Slight adjustments must be made using the
steering controls.
3. To disengage the deck drive, push the switch in to the
disengage position.
To steer left while traveling in reverse, allow the left
steering control lever to move forward. The further the
control is allowed to move forward, the quicker the
mower will turn left.
4. Always operate the engine at full throttle to properly
maintain cutting speed. If the engine starts to lug
down, reduce the forward speed and allow the engine
to operate at maximum RPM.

-IMPORTANT-
4.7 HILLSIDE OPERATION
Do not wash a hot or running engine. Cold
water will damage the engine. Use compressed
air to clean the engine if it is hot.
WARNING:
2. Keep the entire mower clean to inhibit serious heat
damage to the engine or hydraulic oil circuit.
DO NOT operate on steep slopes. To check a slope,
attempt to back up it (with the cutter deck down).
If the machine can back up the slope without the
wheels slipping, reduce speed and use extreme
caution. ALWAYS FOLLOW OSHA APPROVED
OPERATION.
3. Check the drive belts for proper alignment and any
signs of wear. Correct and adjust if necessary.
1. The mower has been designed for good traction and
stability under normal mowing conditions. However,
caution must be used when traveling on slopes,
especially when the grass is wet. Wet grass reduces
traction and steering control.
To avoid injury from burns, allow the mower to
cool before removing the fuel tank cap and
refueling.
4. After the mower has cooled down, fill the fuel tank
with fresh, clean fuel at the end of every day of
operation.
2. To prevent tipping or loss of control, do not start or
stop suddenly, avoid unnecessary turns and travel at
reduced speed.
5. Check the tire pressure. Adjust pressure if necessary.
3. Keep tires properly inflated.
4.8 PARKING THE MOWER
1. Place the steering control levers in the neutral
position.
2. Disengage the cutter blades
3. Slow the engine to idle speed.
4. Engage the parking brake.
5. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position and remove
the key.
4.9 AFTER OPERATION
1. Wash the entire mower after each use. Do not use
high pressure spray or direct the spray onto electrical
components.
12

Section 4
5. When mowing wet or tall grass, mow the grass twice.
Raise the mower to the highest setting for the first
pass and then make a second pass to the desired
height.
4.10 REMOVING CLOGGED MATERIAL
ROTATING BLADES
6. Use a slow travel speed for trimming purposes.
NEVER PUT YOUR HANDS INTO THE DISCHARGE
CHUTE FOR ANY REASON! Shut off the engine and
remove the key and only then use a stick or similar
object to remove material if clogging has occurred.
7. Operate the engine at full throttle for best cutting.
Mowing with a lower RPM causes the mower to tear
the grass. The engine is designed to be operated at
full speed.
8. Use the alternate stripe pattern for best lawn
appearance. Vary the direction of the stripe each
time the grass is mowed to avoid wear patterns in the
grass.
1. If the discharge chute becomes clogged, shut off the
engine and remove the ignition key. Using a stick or
similar item, dislodge the clogged material. Then
resume normal mowing.
4.11 MOVING MOWER WITH ENGINE
STOPPED
To “free-wheel” or move the mower around without the
engine running, place the dump valve levers in the FREE-
WHEEL position (Figure 4-2). Disengage the parking
brake and move the mower by hand. The dump valve
levers must be returned to the DRIVE position to drive
the mower.
4.12 RECOMMENDATIONS FOR MOWING
1. Do not mow with dull blades. A dull blade will tear
grass, resulting in poor lawn appearance and require
extra power.
2. The discharge chute must not be removed and must
be kept in the lowest position to deflect grass
clippings and thrown objects downward. Direct the
side discharge away from sidewalks or streets to
minimize cleanup of clippings. When mowing close
to obstacles, direct the discharge away from the
obstacles to reduce the chance of property damage by
thrown objects.
3. Cut grass when it is dry and not too tall. Do not cut
grass too short (cut off 1/3 or less of existing grass
for best appearance). Mow frequently.
4. Keep mower and discharge chute clean.

6.6 CUTTER DECK ADJUSTMENTS
Cutter deck level, pitch and height are set at the factory.
However, if these adjustments should ever need to be
made, the following procedures will aid in obtaining the
proper cutter deck adjustment.
Cutter Deck Pitch
The pitch of the cutter deck should be 1/4" down toward
the front of the cutter deck for proper cutting
performance. To check for proper deck pitch, be sure
that the mower is on a flat, level surface and the tires are
properly inflated.
-NOTE-
Before proceeding with the cutter deck adjustments,
be sure that all tires are properly inflated.
Cutter Deck Level
Check the distance from the bottom of the cutter deck to
the floor at the rear RH side of the cutter deck directly
behind the cutter deck hanging chains. Next check the
distance from the bottom of the cutter deck to the floor at
the front RH side of the cutter deck directly in front of the
cutter deck hanging chains. The measurement at the
front of the cutter deck should be 1/4" lower than the
measurement at the rear of the deck. Make these
The cutter deck should be level from side-to-side for
proper cutting performance. To check for level, be sure
that the mower is on a flat, level surface, the tires are
properly inflated and the cutter deck is set at the most
common cutting height that you will use. On the RH side
of the machine, check the distance from the bottom of the
cutter deck to the floor. Next check the distance from the
bottom of the cutter deck to the floor on the LH side of
the machine. Both measurements should be the same. If
the two measurements are different, the cutter deck level
must be adjusted as follows:
measurements at the LH side of the cutter deck also. If
the measurement at the front of the deck is not 1/4" lower,
the cutter deck pitch must be adjusted as follows:
1. Loosen the jam nuts on both adjusting rods.
(See Figure 6.5)
1. On the front LH side of the cutter deck locate the
cutter deck adjusting bolt. (See Figure 6.5)
2. Using a wrench on the spring compression nut (See

7.3 HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
B. Changing Hydraulic Oil
The hydraulic oil should be changed after every 500
hours or annually, whichever occurs first. The oil should
also be changed if the color of the fluid has become black
or milky. A black color and/or a rancid odor usually
indicates possible overheating of the oil, and a milky
color usually indicates water in the hydraulic oil.
A. Checking Hydraulic Oil Level
The hydraulic oil level should be checked after the first
10 hours of operation. Thereafter, check the oil after
every 200 hours of machine operation or monthly,
whichever occurs first.

1. Wipe dirt and contaminants from around the
reservoir cap. Remove the cap from the hydraulic oil
reservoir.
1. Park the mower on a level surface and stop the
engine.
2. Visually check the level of hydraulic oil. Hydraulic
oil must be at least 3-1/4" inches from top of the
filler neck. If the level cannot be determined visually,
use a clean tape measure to check the level. If the
fluid is low, add 20W50 motor oil. DO NOT
overfill; (overfilling the oil reservoir may cause oil
seepage).
2. Place a suitable container under the hydraulic oil
reservoir. Remove the fill cap from the reservoir.
Remove the drain plug from the bottom of the
reservoir. (See Figure 7-2). Allow the fluid to drain
into the container and properly discard it.
3. Re-install the drain plug into the reservoir and be
sure it is tight.
3. Clean the fill cap and install it onto the reservoir.

7.7 BATTERY
WARNING:
A. Checking Electrolyte Level and Cleaning
Battery
Electric storage battery fluid contains
sulfuric acid which is POISON and can
cause SEVERE CHEMICAL BURNS. Avoid
contact of fluid with eyes, skin, or clothing.
Use proper protective gear when handling
batteries. DO NOT tip any battery beyond
45° angle in any direction. If fluid contact
does occur, follow first aid suggestions
below.
After every 40 hours of operation or weekly, whichever
occurs first, check the electrolyte level in the battery and
clean the battery and connections. Dirt and fluid on the
top of the battery can cause the battery to discharge.
Corrosion of the battery terminals or loose connections
will cause poor battery performance.
BATTERY ELECTROLYTE FIRST AID
EXTERNAL CONTACT — Flush with water.
WARNING:
Lead-acid batteries produce flammable and
explosive gases. To avoid personal injury
when checking, testing or charging
batteries, DO NOT use smoking materials
near batteries. Keep arcs, sparks and
flames away from batteries. Provide proper
ventilation and wear safety glasses.
EYES — Flush with water for at least 15
minutes and get medical attention
immediately.
INTERNAL — Drink large quantities of
water. Follow with Milk Of Magnesia, beaten
egg,
or vegetable oil. Get medical attention
immediately. In case of internal contact, DO
NOT give fluids that would induce vomiting.
1. Loosen the two plastic wing nuts and then remove the
battery cover.

below the bottom of vent well, fill with clean distilled
water to the bottom of vent wells (1/4 to 1/2 inch
above the plates). Install the battery cell caps.
Refer to the battery charger’s manual for specific
instructions.
-IMPORTANT-
Under normal conditions the engine’s alternator will have
no problem keeping a charge on the battery. If the
battery has been completely discharged for a long period
of time, the alternator may not be able to recharge the
battery, and a battery charger will be required.

so gases produced while charging can
dissipate.
when working with cutter blades.
3. Check the cutter blades for straightness. If the cutter
blades appear bent, they will need to be replaced.
Charging rates between 3 and 50 amperes are satisfactory
if excessive gassing or spewing of electrolyte does not
occur or the battery does not feel excessively hot (over
125°F). If spewing or gassing occurs or the temperature
exceeds 125°F, the charging rate must be reduced or
temporarily stopped to permit cooling.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to straighten a bent blade, and
never weld a broken or cracked blade. Always
replace it with a new blade to assure safety.
C. Jump Starting
4. If a blade cutting edge is dull or nicked, it should be
sharpened. Remove the blades for sharpening. See
"Blade Replacement."
1. The booster battery must be a 12 volt type. If a
vehicle is used for jump starting, it must have a
negative ground system.
-NOTE-
2. When connecting the jumper cables, connect the
positive cable to the positive battery post, then
connect the negative cable to the negative battery
post.

LIMITED WARRANTY-COMMERCIAL EQUIPMENT
Any part of the Scag commercial mower manufactured by Scag Power Equipment and found, in the reasonable judg-
ment of Scag, to be defective in materials or workmanship, will be repaired or replaced by an Authorized Scag Service
Dealer without charge for parts and labor. This warranty is limited to the original purchaser and is not transferable.
Proof of purchase will be required by the dealer to substantiate any warranty claims. All warranty work must be
performed by an Authorized Scag Service Dealer.
This warranty is limited to the following specified periods from the date of the original retail purchase for defects in
materials or workmanship:
* Wear items including drive belts, blades, hoses and tires are warranted for 90 days.
* Batteries are covered for 90 days.
* Frame, deck, and structural components including oil reservoir, fittings, and oil cooler
are warranted for 1 year.
* Engines and electric starters are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty period.
* Drive system components are warranted for 1 year by the component manufacturer, in
conjunction with Scag Power Equipment. (Excluding fittings, hoses, cooling system,

2nd year).
* Cutter Spindle Assemblies 46631 have a Limited Warranty for three years (Parts and
labor 1st year; Parts only 2nd and 3rd year).
Any Scag product used for rental purposes is covered by a 90 day warranty.
The Scag mower, including any defective part must be returned to an Authorized Scag Service Dealer within the
warranty period. The expense of delivering the mower to the dealer for warranty work and the expense of returning it
to the owner after repair will be paid for by the owner. Scag’s responsibility is limited to making the required repairs
and no claim of breach of warranty shall be cause for cancellation or rescission of the contract of sale of any Scag
mower.
This warranty does not cover any mower that has been subject to misuse, neglect, negligence, or accident, or that has
been operated in any way contrary to the operating instructions as specified in the Operator’s Manual. The warranty
does not apply to any damage to the mower that is the result of improper maintenance, or to any mower or parts that
have not been assembled or installed as specified in the Operator’s Manual and Assembly Manual. The warranty does
not cover any mower that has been altered or modified, changing performance or durability. In addition, the warranty
does not extend to repairs made necessary by normal wear, or by the use of parts or accessories which, in the reasonable
judgment of Scag, are either incompatible with the Scag mower or adversely affect its operation, performance or
durability.
Scag Power Equipment reserves the right to change or improve the design of any mower without assuming any obliga-
tion to modify any mower previously manufactured.
All other implied warranties are limited in duration to the one (1) year warranty period or ninety (90) days for mowers
used for rental purpose. Accordingly, any such implied warranties including merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose, or otherwise, are disclaimed in their entirety after the expiration of the appropriate one year or ninety day
warranty period. Scag’s obligation under this warranty is strictly and exclusively limited to the repair or replacement
of defective parts and Scag does not assume or authorize anyone to assume for them any other obligation. Some states
do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
Scag assumes no responsibility for incidental, consequential or other damages including, but not limited to, expense for
gasoline, expense of delivering the mower to an Authorized Scag Service Dealer and expense of returning it to the
owner, mechanic’s travel time, telephone or telegram charges, rental of a like product during the time warranty repairs
are being performed, travel, loss or damage to personal property, loss of revenue, loss of use of the mower, loss of time
or inconvenience. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the
above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
