Throttle Control

The throttle control (Figure 18) gives the operator the ability
to control the speed of the engine. Moving the throttle
control toward the Fast position increases the engine speed;
moving the throttle control toward Slow will decrease the
engine speed. Ground speeds are as follows:
•
3.2 to 8 km/h (2 to 5 mph) forward mowing speed
•
16 km/h (10 mph) maximum transport speed
•
4.0 km/h (2.5 mph) reverse speed
Note: The engine cannot be stopped by the use of the
throttle control.

Choke
To start a cold engine, close the carburetor choke by pulling
the choke control (Figure 18) out to the Closed position.
After the engine starts, regulate the choke to keep the engine
running smoothly. As soon as possible, open the choke by
pushing it in to the Open position. A warm engine requires
little or no choking.
Raise/Lower Mow Control
Moving the control (Figure 18) forward during operation
lowers the cutting units and starts the reels. Pull back on the
control to stop the reels and raise the cutting units. During
operation the reels can be stopped by pulling back on the
control momentarily and releasing it. Start the reels by
moving the control forward.
Functional Control Lever
The functional control lever (Figure 18) provides 2 traction
selections plus a Neutral position. It is permissible to shift
from mow to transport or transport to mow (not to neutral)
while the machine is in motion. No damage will result.
