SpeedControl L ever
The speed control lever, located on the left fender,
allows you to regulate the travel direction and ground
speed of the lawn tractor. To use, release the parking
brake and move the speed control lever forward (to
travel forward) or rearward (to travel in reverse). The
further forward or rearward that the lever is moved, the
faster the tractor will travel.
Place the speed control lever in the Cutting Speed, or
slower, position when mowing.
IMPORTANT:Do NOT attempt to change the direction of
travel when the tractor is in motion. Serious damage to
the tractor's transmission could result. Always bring the
tractor to a complete stop before moving the speed
control lever from forward to reverse or vice versa.
IMPORTANT:Always set the parking brake when
leaving the tractor unattended.
