Operation

Note: Determine the left and right sides of the
machine from the normal operating position.

Controls

Become familiar with all the controls before starting
the engine and operating the machine.
Motion Control Levers
The motion control levers are located on each side
of the console and control the forward and reverse
motion of the machine.
Moving the levers forward or backward turns
the wheel on the same side forward or reverse
respectively. Wheel speed is proportional to the
amount the lever is moved.
Moving the levers outward from the center position
into the T-slot locks them in the neutral position
(Figure 4).

The choke is used to aid in starting a cold engine.
Moving the choke lever forward will put the choke in
the "ON" position and moving the choke lever to the
rear, to the detent, will put the choke in the "OFF"
position. Do Not run a warm engine with choke in
the "ON" position.

Throttle Control
Located on right console (red lever) (see Figure 5).
The throttle is used to control engine speed. Moving
the throttle lever forward will increase engine speed
and moving the throttle lever to the rear will decrease
engine speed. Moving the throttle forward into the
detent is full throttle.
Brake Lever
Located on left side of unit, just to the front of the
LH motion control lever.
