IMPORTANT - READ CAREFULLY
The Dixon® ZTR® Mower is both easy and fun to operate. However, any
power mower must be operated properly to be safe. It is not a toy or a
recreational vehicle. Before you start to use the mower, read the
operator's manual carefully and become completely familiar with the
controls.
The information in this operator's manual applies to all Dixon® ZTR® 5000
Series Commercial Mowers. Your Dixon dealer will gladly answer any
questions.
See your dealer for warranty service, parts and repairs.
