Control Functions

The information below briefly describes the function of individual controls. Starting, stopping, driving,
and mowing require the combined use of several controls applied in specific sequences. To learn what
combination and sequence of controls to use for various tasks see the OPERATION section.
Ground Speed Levers
These levers control the ground speed and direction of the
rider. The left lever controls the left rear drive wheel and the
right controls the right rear drive wheel.
Moving a lever forward increases the FORWARD speed of the
associated wheel, and pulling back on a lever increases the
REVERSE speed.
The further a lever is moved away from the neutral position the
faster the drive wheel will turn.
See the OPERATION section for steering instructions.

Engine Speed Control
The engine speed control controls the engine speed. Move the
engine speed control to the FAST position to increase engine
speed, and to the SLOW position to decrease engine speed.
NOTE: Always operate the rider with the engine speed control
in the FAST position.
NOTE: The engine on this unit features an Electronic Fuel
Management (EFM) system, and does not require choking.
