Machine Safety Labels: Safety Device = (SD).
A complete
listing is found in the Safety Manual section.
A.
Engine Kill Switch (SD)
turns the engine off and permits it
to be started. It is part of the Neutral Safety Switch System to
prevent the Triumph from starting in Gear.

is part of the Throttle/Clutch/Operator
Presence Control (OPC) System for the machine. The Lever
controls engine speed. The engine speed increases as the lever
is pulled and the Centrifugal Clutch automatically engages
sending power to the Transaxle though a belt and pulley
system. Releasing the Throttle Lever decreases engine speed
and disengages power to the Transaxle.
D.

- Interlocked
handlebar actuation helps the operator control a fully loaded
machine.

opens and closes the pattern adjustment
Slide Plate below the spreader’s Third-Hole (left hole looking
