13. Throttle Control
The throttle control regulates the engine
speed and thereby the rate of rotation of the
blades, assuming the blade switch is pulled
out, see Engaging the Mower Deck.
In order to increase or decrease the engine
speed, the control is moved downward or
upward respectively.
Avoid idling the engine for long periods, as
there is a risk of fouling the spark plugs.
USE FULL THROTTLE WHEN MOWING, for
best mower performance and battery
charging.
14. Lifting Lever for the Mower Deck
The lifting lever is used to place the mower
deck in the transport position or one of the
14 different cutting height positions.
The cutting height is set by placing a peg in
the hole for the desired cutting height and the
peg is then locked on the inside (hidden in the
illustration) with the supplied pin.
1.
Pull the lever backward to the locked
position to engage the transport position.
The deck is then raised.
2.
Depress the lock handle, counter hold,
and move the lifting lever forward toward
the peg to engage the set cutting height.
The deck is then lowered.
3.
The lifting lever can also be used to
temporarily adjust the cutting height,
such as when passing a minor bump in
the lawn.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
In order to obtain an even cutting height it
is important that the air pressure in all
four tires is the same 15 psi (1 bar).
