Operator Presence Levers
located on the handle, the Operator Presence
System levers serve as an additional safety feature.
An electrical interlock safety system is activated
by depressing either one or both of the Operator
Presence levers at the handle grips.
Releasing both Operators Presence levers while
mowing or transporting will break the electrical circuit
and cause the engine and mower to stop. The mower
will not stop immediately after releasing the OP levers
and some travel occurs.
When the blades are engaged or neutral lock bail has
not locked the drive levers, one or both levers must be
pressed against the handle for the engine to remain
running.
Gear shift lever
Gear shift lever has 5 gear speeds. There are also
neutral and reverse gears.
Grip the motion control levers before shifting gears.
This will clutch the gearbox.
Throttle Control and Choke Control
Choke Control
The choke control is used for cold starts to provide the
engine with a richer fuel mixture.
The choke control is combined with the throttle control.
To engage the choke, the throttle control is moved past
the max RPM setting to the choke position.
Do not use the choke when starting a warm engine.
Throttle Control
The throttle control regulates the engine speed and
thereby the rate of rotation of the blades, assuming the
control for engaging the mower deck is pulled forward.
In order to increase or decrease the engine speed, the
control is moved forward or backward respectively.
Avoid idling the engine for long periods, as there is a
risk of the spark plugs fouling.
For best mower performance, USE FUll THROTTlE
WHEN MOWING.
