ThrottleControl L ever
The throttle control lever is located on the right side of
the tractor's dash panel. This lever controls the speed
of the engine and, on most models, when pushed all the
way forward, the choke control also. When set in a
given position, the throttle will maintain a uniform
engine speed. See Figure 8.

IMPORTANT:When operating the tractor with the cutting
deck engaged, be certain that the throttle lever is
always in the FAST (rabbit) position.
ChokeControl
On most models, moving the
throttle lever all the way forward
activates the engine's choke
control. On 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.
Refer to Starting TheEngine on page 15 of this manual for
detailed starting instructions.
BrakePedal
The brake pedal is located on the left side of the lawn
tractor, along the running board. Depress the brake
pedal part way down to slow the tractor's ground speed.
Depress the pedal all the way down to engage the disc
brake and bring the tractor to a complete stop.
NOTE:
The brake pedal must be depressed to start
the engine. Refer to Safety Interlock Switches on page 14.
ParkingBrakeLever
To set the parking brake, fully
depress the brake pedal. Move the
parking brake lever all the way down
and into the ON position. Release the
brake pedal to allow the parking
brake to engage.
To release the parking brake,
depress the brake pedal and move
the parking brake lever into the OFF
position. Release the brake pedal.
NOTE: The parking brake must be
set if the operator leaves the seat with
the engine running or the engine will
automatically shut off.
DeckLiftLever
Found on your tractor's right fender,
the deck lift lever is used to change
the height of the cutting deck. To use,
move the lever to the left, then place
in the notch best suited for your
application.
PTO(BladeEngage) Lever
Found on the tractor's right fender,
the PTO (blade engage) lever is used
to engage power to the cutting deck
or other (separately available)
attachments. To operate, move the
lever all the way forward. Moving the
lever all the way rearward into the
PTO OFF position disengages power
to the cutting deck/attachment.
NOTE: The PTO (blade engage)
lever must be in the disengaged
(PTO OFF) position when starting the
engine.
