17 This operator’s manual describes the Dixon Zero T ur n Rider . The rider is tted with a Kohler 25 HP* four - stroke overhead valve engine. T ransmission from the engine is made via belt-driven hydraulic pumps. Using the left and right steering controls, the ow is r egulated and thereby the direction and speed.
18 8050-200 Steering controls Steering Control Levers The machine’s speed and direction ar e continuously variable using the two steering controls. The steering controls can be moved forwar d or backward about a neutral position.
19 Throttle Control The throttle contr ol regulates the engine speed and thereby the rate of r otation of the blades, assuming the blade switch is pulled out, see Engaging the Mower Deck. In order to incr ease or decrease the engine speed, the control is moved forwar d or back respectively .
20 Choke Control The choke control is used for cold starts in order to provide the engine with a richer fuel mixtur e. For cold starts the control should be pushed to the ON position. W ARNING! Gasoline is highly ammable. Observe caution and ll the tank outdoors (see the safety instruction).
21 Seat Adjustment Lever The seat can be adjusted lengthways. When making adjustments, the lever under the front edge of the seat is moved to the left (as seen by the driver in the seat), after which the seat can be moved backward or forward.
22 Fuel Shut Off V alve The fuel shut off valve is located in the fuel line under the seat. Tilt seat forward for access. The fuel valve is ON when the valve is parallel to the fuel line. Rotate the valve ¼ turn clockwise to tur n fuel OFF .
23 Fuel T ank Read the safety instructions before r efueling. The machine has one fuel tank, just behind the seat. The tank capacity is 5.7 gallons (22 liters). Make sure the fuel cap is pr operly tightened and the cap gasket is not damaged.

31 Mowing Tips Observe and ag rocks and other xed objects to • avoid collisions. Begin with a high cutting height and reduce it until • the desired mowing r esult 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.
32 Stopping the Engine Allow the engine to idle a minute in order to attain normal operating temperature before stopping it, if it has been worked hard. A void idling the engine for longer periods, as there is a risk of the spark plugs fouling.

35 1) First change after 5-8 hours. When operating with a heavy load or at high ambient temperatures, r eplace every 50 hours. 2) In dusty conditions, cleaning and replacement ar e requir ed more often. 3) For daily use, the machine should be lubricated twice weekly .
36 Battery Y our mower is equipped with a maintenance free battery that does not need servicing. However , periodic charging of the battery with an automotive type battery charger will extend its life. Keep battery and ter minals clean.
37 Safety System The machine is equipped with a safety system that prevents starting or driving under the following conditions. The engine can only be started when: 1. The mower deck is disengaged. 2. The steering controls ar e in the outer , locked neutral position.
38 V -belts Check every 100 hours of operation. Check for severe cracking and large nicks. NOTE: The belt will show some small cracks in normal operation. The belts are not adjustable. Replace belts if they begin to slip from wear .
39 Cutting Blades In order to attain the best mowing ef fect, it is important that the blades are well sharpened and not damaged. Bent or cracked blades or blades with large nicks should be replaced. Damaged blades should be replaced when hitting obstacles that result in a br eakdown.
40 W ARNING! Blades are sharp. Protect your hands with gloves and/or wrap blades with a heavy cloth when handling. Blade Replacement Remove blade bolt by turning counterclockwise. 1. IMPORT ANT INFORMA TION T o ensure proper assembly , center hole in blade must align with star on cutter housing.

42 Anti-Scalp Rollers Anti-scalp rollers are pr operly adjusted when they are just slightly of f of the ground when the deck is at the desired cutting height in the operating position. Anti-scalp rollers then keep the deck in the proper position to help prevent scalping in most terrain conditions.
43 2 1 3 Caster Wheels Check every 200 hours. Check that wheels rotate freely . If wheels do not rotate freely take the unit to your dealer for service. Foam lled tires or solid tir es will void the warranty . Removal and installation of caster wheel Remove nut (1) and caster bolt (2).
44 General Remove the ignition key to prevent unintentional movements during lubrication. When lubricating with an oil can, it must be lled with engine oil. When lubricating with grease, unless otherwise stated, use a high grade molybdenum disulphide grease.

46 2 3 1 Purging Due to the effects air has on efciency in hydr ostatic drive applications, it is critical that it is purged from the system. These purge procedur es should be implemented any time a hydrostatic system has been opened to facilitate maintenance or any additional oil has been added to the system.
47 Problem Cause The engine will not start. Blade lever is engaged. • Steering controls ar e not locked in neutral • position. Driver is not sitting in driver’s seat. • Parking brake is not activated.
48 Problem Cause The engine seems weak. Clogged air lter . • Fouled spark plugs. • Carburetor incorr ectly adjusted. • The engine overheats. Clogged air intake or cooling ns. • Engine overloaded.
49 Winter Storage At the end of the mowing season, the machine should be readied for storage (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 carbur etor and disrupt engine function.
