Speed Control Lever
The speed control lever, located on the left side of
the tractor's dash console, allows you to regulate
the ground speed of the lawn tractor. To use,
depress the clutch-brake pedal and move the lever
out of the parking brake notch and forward to
increase the tractor's ground speed. When a desired
speed has been reached, release the lever into an
appropriate notch to maintain that speed.
To slow the tractor's ground speed, depress the
clutch-brake pedal and move the speed control
lever rearward and release it into a notch.
NOTE: Lawn tractors vary by model and are
available with either a 6- or 7-speed control lever.
PTO (Blade Engage) 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.
Deck Lift Lever
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.
