Throttle Lever and Safety Bail
The throttle lever controls the engine speed. With the lever
released, in the disengaged position, the engine runs at idle.
This is also the starting position. When you pull the lever to
the handle, the engine speed increases, the centrifugal clutch
engages, and the cutting wheel rotates.
The safety bail controls the engine. Hold the safety bail
against the handle to deactivate the engine kill switch so that
the engine will start. Release the safety bail to stop the engine.
