You'd want to use the "NORMAL" mode on the CTEK MULTI US 7002 12-Volt Universal Battery Charger # CTEK56353 to charge your lawn mower tractor before its first use and after a long winter, unless the temperature is still under 41 degrees Fahrenheit, in which case, the "SNOWFLAKE" mode would be best.

Since the battery will likely be severely discharged after sitting without use all winter, you can use the "RECOND" mode, to recondition the battery. This can only be done after the battery has been fully recharged first.

I've attached a cut-out from the manual to provide additional details on the different battery types and settings.
