Throttle Control
The throttle control (Fig. 20) gives the operator the ability
to control the speed of the engine. Moving the throttle
control toward the Fast position increases the engine RPM;
moving the throttle control toward Slow will decrease the
engine RPM.
Note: The engine cannot be stopped by the use of the
throttle control.
Choke
To start a cold engine, close the carburetor choke by
moving the choke control (Fig. 20) forward to the Closed
position. After the engine starts, regulate the choke to keep
the engine running smoothly. As soon as possible, open the
choke by pulling it rearward to the Open position. A warm
engine requires little or no choking.
Ignition Switch
Insert the key into the switch (Fig. 20) and turn it clockwise
as far as possible to the Start position to start the engine.
Release the key as soon as the engine starts; the key will
move to the On position. Turn the key counterclockwise to
the Off position to stop the engine.
Voltmeter
The voltmeter (Fig. 20) indicates the electrical system
voltage.
Fuse
The fuse (Fig. 20) is part of the electrical circuit. It contains
a 10 amp. fuse (15 amp. maximum).
Hour Meter
The hour meter (Fig. 20) indicates the total hours of
machine operation. It starts to function whenever the key
switch is rotated to On.

Shift Selector
The shift selector is located on the top of the right hand
panel (Fig. 22). It provides two traction selections plus a
Neutral position. It is permissible to shift from one
selection to another while the machine is in motion. No
damage will result.
Neutral—used for starting the engine
No. 1 Position—used for greens mowing operation
No. 2 Position—used for transport operation
Important If the machine is operated in reverse with
the cutting units down, the cutting units will be pulled off
of the lift arms.
