TEC Controller Logic Chart
Each line of the following chart identifies the necessary
component position (INPUTS) in order for the TEC con-
troller to energize the appropriate OUTPUTS for ma-
chine operation.
Example: To start the engine with no operator in the
seat, when the ignition key is in start, the traction pedal
is in neutral and the parking brake is applied, the glow
plugs and other necessary engine starting components
will be energized.

NOTE: ForStartmachine function, thejoystick mustbe
in the neutral (center) position and the PTO switch must
be OFF.
NOTE: When the Lower/Mow machine function is
completed, the front cutting decks engage while lower-
ing to the ground followed shortly by the rear cutting
decksengagingwhileloweringto the ground. The timing
of this sequence is provided by the TEC controller.
NOTE: The Diagnostic Light Fault Retrieval ma-
chine function requires that the seat be unoccupied, the
mow speed limiter be in the TRANSPORT position, the
PTO switch be OFF and the cutting decks be in the low-
ered, mow position.
