Ignition Switch
The ignition switch has 3 positions—Off, Run and Start. The
key will turn to Start and move back to Run upon release.
Turning the key to the Off position will stop the engine;
however, always remove the key when leaving the machine
to prevent someone from accidentally starting the engine
(
Figure 5 ).
Throttle/Choke Control
The throttle and choke are combined into one control lever.
The throttle controls the engine speed and it has a continuous
variable setting from Slow to Fast. Engage the choke by
moving the lever past the Fast setting until it stops (
Figure 5 ).
It may be necessary to hold the lever against the stop, in the
choke position, while trying to start the engine.
Note:
A warm or hot engine may not require choking.
Blade-Control Switch (Power Take-off)
The blade-control switch, represented by a power take-off
(PTO) symbol, engages and disengages power to the mower
blades (
Figure 5 ).
