Features and Controls
Ground Speed Levers
These levers control the ground speed and direc-
tion of the rider. The left lever controls the left rear drive
wheel and the right controls the right rear drive wheel.
Moving a lever forward increases the FORWARD speed
of the associated wheel, and pulling back on a lever
increases the REVERSE speed.
The further a lever is moved away from the neutral posi-
tion the faster the drive wheel will turn.
See the Operation section for steering instructions.
Engine Speed / Choke Control
(Choke-A-Matic - 22HP)
The engine speed / choke control controls the engine
speed and choke. Move the engine speed control to
the FAST position to increase engine speed, and to the
SLOW position to decrease engine speed. Move the
engine speed / choke control past the FAST position
to the CHOKE position to start a cold engine. A warm
engine may not require choking.
NOTE: Always operate the rider with the engine speed
control in the FAST position.
Control Functions
The information below briefly describes the function of individual controls. Starting, stopping, driving, and mow-
ing require the combined use of several controls applied in specific sequences. To learn what combination and
sequence of controls to use for various tasks see the Operation section.
