Steering Arm Locking Pedal
Press the pedal ( Figure 15 ) and raise or lower the
steering arm for operator comfort, then, release the
pedal to lock the arm in place.
Throttle Control
The throttle control ( Figure 17 ) gives the operator the
ability to control the speed of the engine. Moving the
throttle control toward the Fast position increases the
engine rpm; moving the throttle control toward Slow
will decrease the engine rpm. Ground speeds are
as follows:
•
3.2 to 8 km/h (2 to 5 mph) forward mowing speed
•
16 km/h (10 mph) maximum transport speed
•
4.0 km/h (2.5 mph) reverse speed
Note:
The engine cannot be stopped by the use of
the throttle control.
