SECTION 5: OPERATING YOUR RIDING MOWER
Using Throttle/Choke Control
The throttle/choke control is used to increase or
decrease the speed of the engine.The FAST and the
SLOW positions are marked with illustrations of a rabbit
and a turtle respectively. See Figure 9.
• For normal operation and when using a grass
catcher, move the throttle/choke control to the
FAST position.
• For maximum charging of the battery and also for a
cooler engine while running, move the throttle/
choke control to the FAST position.
• For transport and to tow pull-behind attachments,
move the throttle/choke control to the SLOW
position.
• Do not adjust the governor to increase or decrease
the engine speed. The governor is set at the factory
for maximum engine performance, and should not
be altered.
