Accelerator Pedal
The accelerator pedal (Fig. 13) gives the operator the
ability to vary ground speed of the vehicle. Depressing the
pedal starts the engine. Depressing the pedal farther
increases ground speed. Releasing the pedal will slow the
vehicle and the engine will stop running. Maximum
forward speed is 14 mph (22 km/h).

Brakes can become worn or can be misadjusted
resulting in personal injury.
If brake pedal travels to within 1 inch (25 mm) of
the vehicle floor board, the brakes must be
adjusted or repaired.
Parking Brake
The parking brake is a small plate at the top of the brake
pedal (Fig. 13). Whenever the engine is shut off, the
parking brake must be engaged to prevent accidental
movement of the vehicle. To engage the parking brake, step
on the brake pedal firmly and roll forward with the top of
your foot. To disengage, depress the accelerator pedal. If
the vehicle is parked on a steep grade, make sure the
parking brake is applied. Place blocks at the downhill side
of the wheels.
