WARNING
Read and follow all safety rules and instructions in this manual,
including the entire Operation section, before attempting to operate
this machine. Failure to comply with all safety rules and instructions
may result in personal injury.
THROTTLE/CHOKE CONTROL
The throttle/choke control is located on the left side of
the tractor’s dash panel. This lever controls the speed
of the engine and, when pushed all the way forward,
closes the choke for cold starting. When set in a given
position, the throttle will maintain a uniform engine
speed.
NOTE: When operating the tractor with the cutting
deck engaged, be certain that the throttle/choke
control is always in the FAST (rabbit) position.
BRAKE PEDAL
The brake pedal is located on the left front
side of the tractor along the running board.
The brake pedal can be used for sudden
stops or setting the parking brake.
NOTE: The brake pedal must be fully
depressed to activate the safety interlock
switch when starting the tractor.
SEAT ADJUSTMENT LEVER
The seat adjustment lever is located below the front/left of the seat.
The lever allows for adjustment of the fore to aft position of the
operator’s seat. Refer to the Assembly section of this manual for more
detailed instructions.
DECK LIFT LEVER
Found on your tractor’s right fender,
the deck lift lever is used to change the
height of the cutting deck. To use, move
the lever to the left, then place in the
notch best suited for your application.
