NOTE: When operating the tractor with the cutting deck
engaged, be certain that the throttle/choke control is always in

(If Equipped)

way forward activates the engine's choke control.
On all other models, the choke control can be
found on the left side of the dash panel and is
activated by pulling the knob outward. Activating
the choke control closes the choke plate on the
carburetor and aids in starting the engine.

FAST
side of the tractor along the running board.
The brake pedal can be used for sudden stops
or setting the parking brake.
