ground speed.

controls the cutting height. The cutting height can
be set to one of seven positions between 1.5" and
4.0" (3,8 and 10,2 cm).

This allows the operator to mow (or use other
PTO driven attachments) while traveling in
reverse. To activate, turn the RMO key after the
PTO is engaged. The L.E.D. light will illuminate,
and the operator can then mow in reverse. Each
time the PTO is engaged, the RMO needs to be
reactivated if desired.
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch starts and stops the engine, it
has three positions:
OFF Stops the engine and shuts off the
electrical system.
RUN Allows the engine to run and powers the
electrical system.
START Cranks the engine for starting.
NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN
position with the engine stopped–this drains the
battery.

The throttle/choke controls the engine speed
and choke. Move the throttle/choke control to
the FAST position to increase engine speed
and SLOW position to decrease engine speed.
Always operate at full throttle. Move the throttle/
choke control to the CHOKE position for starting
a cold engine. A warm engine may not require
choking.

This releases the transmission so that the tractor
can be pushed by hand.
