Blade Switch
Throttle Control
The throttle control regulates the engine speed and the rate of
rotation of the blades, assuming the blade switch is pulled out.
See Blade Switch.
To increase or decrease the engine speed, the control is
moved forward or back respectively.
Avoid idling the engine for long periods, as there is a risk
of fouling the spark plugs. USE FULL THROTTLE WHEN
MOWING, for best mower performance and battery charging.
To engage the mower deck, pull the knob out; mower blades
are disengaged when the knob is pressed down.
Service Meter
The service meter displays the total number of hours the
engine has run and indicates when the engine and mower
need servicing.
After every 50 hours of operation, an oil can icon will appear
and stay on for two hours, before an automatic reset occurs.
To manually reset the meter, turn the key off and on five times
at one second intervals. To service the engine and mower, see
the Service Journal of this manual.
Note: The service meter operates (clocks hours) only when the
engine is running. Be sure to turn the key off when the unit is
not in use, to prevent meter hours from accumulating.
Choke Control
The choke control is used for cold starts to provide the engine
with a richer fuel mixture.
For cold starts the control should be pulled up.
