For 15 & 17 HP Kawasaki engines:
There is not a “STOP” position. The engine will continue to run when the
throttle control is moved past the rear detent. Turn the ignition switch to the
“off” position to stop the engine.
For B&S Vanguard Engines:
a) Position the throttle control lever (on console) 1/8" from the upper end of the
slot. Route the throttle cable along the right side of the upper handle, under
the fuel tank support, and position the cable on the
right side of the engine
between the oil fill tube and engine.
b) Attach the inner wire to the appropriate throttle control lever on the engine.
Loosen the cable clamp on the engine, place the cable behind it and pull up
on the cable to move the throttle linkage to the
full throttle position.
Tighten the cable clamp screw.
On Kaw and Kohler engines, secure fuel line to throttle control cable with a
wire tie approximately 2” ahead of filter to keep fuel line away from hydraulic
lines to prevent vapor lock.
3.9 Connect the blade engagement linkages. Loosen jamnut and remove turnbuckle
from lower linkage. Screw turnbuckle onto both upper and lower linkages
simultaneously (See Fig. 5). Note that threads on upper linkage are left hand.
See 5.2.2 for linkage adjustment.
