Features & Controls
Ground Speed Control Handles
These handles control the ground speed of the mower.
The left and right handles are tied together so you can
operate either lever to control the mower’s ground
speed.
Moving a handle forward to “F” increases the FORWARD
speed of the mower. Moving a handle back to “R”
increases the REVERSE speed. Moving the handles to
to “N” neutral position stops mower travel.
Note: The further a handle is moved away from the
neutral position the faster the mower will travel.
Throttle Control
Pulling the round choke control knob (D) out fully chokes
the engine for cold starts. (A warm engine may not
require choking.) Moving the throttle control (C) fully
forward is FULL throttle position. Always operate the
unit at FULL throttle when mowing.
Please take a moment and familiarize
yourself with the name, location, and
function of these controls so that you
will better understand the safety and
operating instructions provided in this
manual.
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch starts and stops the engine, it has
three positions:
OFF Stops the engine and shuts off the
electrical system.
RUN Allows the engine to run and powers
the electrical system.
START Cranks the engine for starting.
NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN position
with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.
Choke
Close the choke for cold starting. Open the choke once
the engine starts. A warm engine may not require
choking. Pull the knob UP to close the choke. Push to
knob DOWN to open the choke.
CONTROL FUNCTIONS
The information below briefly describes the function of individual controls. Starting, stopping, driving, and
mowing 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.
