Shift Lever ( 21” Models only )
With the drive clutch released, move the shift lever to select 1
st
(slow),
2
nd
(medium) or 3
rd
(fast).
Do not use the throttle lever to adjust your forward speed. Forward speed
should be adjusted with the shift lever, not the throttle lever. The throttle
lever must remain in the “HIGH” position for good mowing performance.
Otherwise, cut quality suffers.
The speed must only be changed with the mower stationary, release the clutch
lever before changing gears.
For maximum mowing performance, use 1
st
and 2
nd
gears for mowing and 3
rd
gear for transporting. Always disengage blades when transporting mower.
To avoid incomplete gear engagement, be sure the shift lever is centred in one
of the three detent positions.
