3. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 CONTROLS
3.1.1 Familiarize yourself with the controls and operation of the unit.
Carefully read the following information about the controls and their operation.
3.1.2 Operator Presence Control (OPC) Levers
: Located on the upper handle
assembly directly above the handle grips (See Figure 1). When these levers are
depressed, the OPC system senses that the operator is in the normal
operator's position. When the levers are released, the OPC system senses
that the operator has moved from the normal operating position and will kill
the engine if either the speed control lever is not in the neutral position or the
PTO is engaged.
