Throttle / Choke Control
The throttle control lever is located on the left fender of the tractor as seen from the
operator's position, see Figure 17. This lever controls the speed of the engine, as well
as the choke when it is pushed all the way forward. When set in a given position,
the throttle will maintain a uniform engine speed.
IMPORTANT: When operating the tractor with the cutting deck engaged, be certain
that the throttle lever is always in the FAST (rabbit) position.
Moving the throttle lever all the way forward activates the engine's choke control.
Activating the choke control closes the choke plate on the carburetor and aids in
starting the engine.
Refer to Starting The Engine in the Operation section of this manual for detailed
starting instructions.
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch is located on the left fender of the tractor as seen from the
operator's position, adjacent to the Throttle/Choke Control. Activate the Ignition
Switch to start the engine by inserting the key into the ignition switch and turn
clockwise to the START position. Release the key into the ON position once engine
has fired. See Figure 18.

way down to engage the disc brake and bring the tractor to a complete stop.
NOTE: The clutch-brake pedal must be completely depressed to start the engine.
Refer to Safety Interlock Switches in the Operation section of this manual.

Shift Lever
The shift lever is located on the control panel just below the seat, in the center of
the tractor. It has three positions, FORWARD, NEUTRAL and REVERSE. The brake
pedal must be completely depressed and the tractor must not be in motion
when moving the shift lever. See Figure 19.
IMPORTANT: Never force the shift lever. Doing so may result in serious damage to
the tractor's transmission.
Speed Control Lever
The speed control lever, located on the right side of the tractor's steering console,
allows you to regulate the ground speed of the lawn tractor.
To use, depress the clutch-brake pedal and move the lever out of the parking brake
notch and forward to increase the tractor's ground speed. When a desired speed has
been reached, release the lever into an appropriate notch to maintain that speed.
To slow the tractor's ground speed, depress the clutch-brake pedal and move the
speed control lever rearward and release it into a notch.
Parking Brake
To set the parking brake, fully depress the clutch-brake pedal. Move the speed
control lever all the way down and into the parking brake position. Release the
clutch-brake pedal to allow the parking brake to engage.
To release the parking brake, depress the clutch-brake pedal and move the speed
control lever out of the parking brake position into the desired position. Release the
clutch-brake pedal.
NOTE: The parking brake must be set if the operator leaves the seat with the engine
running or the engine will automatically shut off.
Fuel Lever Indicator
The Fuel Lever Indicator is located below the seat on the left hand side from the
operator's position in the control panel. Use this window to identify the tractor's
fuel needs. See Figure 20.
