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.
Ground Speed Levers
These levers control the ground speed 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
position the faster the drive wheel will turn.
See the OPERATION section for steering instructions.
_/_ Throttle Control
The throttle controls engine speed. Move the throttle
forward to increase engine speed and back to
decrease engine speed. Always operate at FULL
throttle.
_ Choke
Close the choke for cold starting. Open the choke
once the engine starts. A warm engine may not
require choking. Move the lever forward to close the
choke. Move the lever back to open the choke.
gnition Switch
The ignition switch starts and stops the engine; it has
three positions:
Stops the engine and shuts off the
electrical system.
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.
