The engine speed was set at the factory for optimum per-
formance. Speed is not adjustable.

ENGINE ZONE CONTROL

an engine control to be installed on this
lawn mower in order to minimize the risk
of blade contact injury. Do not un der

positioned behind the lawn mower handle to start and
operate the lawn mower.
