When you squeeze the OPC levers against the handles,
the OPC system senses that the operator is in the normal
operating position. When you release the OPC levers, the
OPC system senses that the operator has left the normal
operating position, and the system will stop the engine if
either the gear-shift lever is not in the neutral position or the
blade-control (PTO) lever is engaged.
Gear-shift Lever
The transmission has 5 forward speeds, neutral, and reverse,
and has an in-line shift pattern.
Important: Do not shift while the machine is moving,
as transmission damage may occur.
Drive Levers
Release the drive levers to engage the forward traction
operation. Squeeze the right-hand drive lever to turn right
and the left-hand drive lever to turn left.
Neutral/Parking Brake Lock
Squeeze the drive levers and move the locks rearward for
neutral lock. Squeeze the drive levers and move the locks
forward to set the parking brake.
Blade-control Lever (PTO)
This lever is used in conjunction with the OPC levers to
engage or disengage the mower deck belt and drive the
mower blades.
Recoil Starter
Pull the recoil-start handle to start the engine (not shown
in Figure 5).
Fuel-shutoff Valve
Close the fuel-shutoff valve when transporting or storing the
machine.

This switch is used in conjunction with the recoil starter and
has 2 positions: Run and Off.
