[1]
You can control mower speed with the drive clutch lever [1]. The mower will
move gradually faster as you push the lever forward. If you push the lever all
the way up to the handlebar, the mower will move at the speed determined by
the shift lever setting.
Shift Lever
Use the shift lever [1] to select the
[1]
forward speed at which you wish to
STOP or SLOW
mow.
Do not use the throttle lever to adjust
your forward speed. The throttle lever
must remain in the fast position for
good mowing performance.
Otherwise, cut quality suffers.
FAST
Use the lower speed range for
mulching and bagging, the higher
speed range for transporting.
With the shift lever all the way back
and the drive clutch lever engaged,
the mower will move slowly or not at
all.
