The traction pedal (

Figure 11

) has 3 functions: to

make the machine move forward, to move it backward,
and to stop the machine. Press the top of the pedal
to move forward and the bottom of the pedal to
move backward or to assist in stopping when moving
forward. Also, allow the pedal to move to the neutral
position to stop the machine. For your comfort, do not
rest the heel of your foot on reverse when operating
forward (
