Throttle/Choke Control Lever
The throttle/choke control lever is located on the left side of the lawn
tractor's dash panel. 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 lawn tractor with the cutting deck
engaged, be certain that the throttle/choke control lever is always in
the FAST (rabbit) position.
Moving the throttle/choke control 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 on page 18 for detailed starting
