LIGHT SWITCH
The head lamps are operated by pushing the light
switch located on the dashboard. The head lamps will
only operate when the engine is running. See figure 11.
AMMETER
The ammeter registers the rate of battery charge or
discharge. The ammeter will register on the discharg¬
ing side with starting the engine. It should register on
the opposite side (charging) when the engine is run¬
ning in the fast position until the battery is completely
charged. With a fully charged battery or with the engine
idling, the ammeter will not show a charge. See figure
11
.
HYDROSTATIC CONTROL LEVER
The hydrostatic control lever is located on top of the
fender on the left side of the tractor. This single con¬
trol lever, connected to the hydrostatic transmission,
controls both the speed and direction of the tractor, in¬
finite speed control is achieved by moving the control
lever forwarder backward. The farther forward or
backward you move the control lever, the faster you
will travel. Pulling the control lever into neutral (N) area
will stop the tractor. To increase rear wheel torque (pull¬
ing power), move the control lever towards neutral (N)
position. The lawn tractor responds similar to shifting
to a lower gear with a gear type transmission. See
figure 12.
CLUTCH-BRAKE PEDAL
The clutch-brake pedal is located on the left side of the
tractor. See figure 11. Depressing the pedal disengages
the engine from the hydrostatic transmission and ap¬
plies the brake.
NOTE: The clutch-brake pedal must be depressed to
start the engine.
PARKING BRAKE
To set the parking brake, depress the clutch-brake
pedal and pull up the parking brake knob. It will stay
in the raised position. To release the parking brake,
depress and release the clutch-brake pedal. See figure
13.
NOTE: The parking brake must be set if the operator
leaves the seat with the engine running.
