Electric PTO (Power Take-Off) Switch
The PTO switch is located on the right control panel
and it is used to control the engagement of the cutting
blades. When the switch is up, the cutting blades are
engaged. When the switch is down, the cutting blades
are disengaged. See Figure 1 and Figure 2.

(OFF) position when starting the engine, when shifting

The choke lever is located on the left control panel.
Activating the choke control closes the choke plate on

lever forward to turn choke on and pull choke lever back
to turn choke off. See Figure 1 and Figure 3.
The throttle lever is also located on the left control panel
and it is used to regulate the engine speed. To get
maximum efficiency from cutting, the throttle should be
