from zero to full rated speed in each range. Speed is
controlled by the H.S.T. foot pedal on the right side
of the transmission, Figure 6. Depress the forward
pad on the pedal for forward travel, to the position
that provides the desired ground speed. For reverse
travel, depress the rear pad on the pedal.

the speed control lever to the “RELEASE” position
or firmly depress the brake pedal. If a higher or
lower set speeds is desired, release and reset the
lever.

speed or when in reverse.
Do not move the speed control lever to the SET
position while applying the parking brake.
