THROTTLE CONTROL LEVER
The throttle control lever is located on the right side of
the tractor’s dash panel. This lever controls the speed
of the engine and, on some models, when pushed all
the way forward, the choke control also. When set in a
given position, the throttle will maintain a uniform
engine speed. See Figure 8.
Figure 8
IMPORTANT:
When operating the tractor with the
cutting deck engaged, be certain that the throttle lever
is always in the FAST (rabbit) position.
CHOKE CONTROL
The choke control can be found
on the left side of the dash panel
and is activated by pulling the
knob outward. Activating the
choke control closes the choke
plate on the carburetor and aids
in starting the engine. Refer to
STARTING THE ENGINE in the
OPERATION section of this
manual for detailed starting
instructions.
BRAKE PEDAL
The brake pedal is located on the
right front side of the tractor
above the drive pedal along the
running board. The brake pedal
can be used for sudden stops or
setting the parking brake.
NOTE:
The brake pedal must
be fully depressed to activate the
safety interlock switch when
starting the tractor
.
IGNITION SWITCH
WARNING:
Never leave a running
machine unattended. Always disengage the
PTO, move shift lever into neutral position, set
parking brake, stop engine and remove key to
prevent unintended starting.
To start the engine, insert the key into the ignition
switch and turn clockwise to the START position.
Release the key into the ON position once engine has
fired. See Figure 9.

Refer to STARTING THE ENGINE in the OPERATION
section of this manual for detailed starting instructions.
The ignition switch is also used to operate the
headlights. Refer to OPERATING THE HEADLIGHTS
in the OPERATION section of this manual for detailed
instructions
DRIVE PEDAL
The drive pedal is located below
the brake pedal on the right
front side of the tractor along
the running board. Depress the
upper portion of the drive pedal
forward to cause the tractor to
travel forward. Depress the
lower portion of the drive pedal
with the ball of your right foot
(NOT your heel) to cause the
tractor to travel in reverse.
Ground speed is also controlled
with the drive pedal. The further
forward or rearward that the pedal is pivoted, the faster
the tractor will travel. The pedal will return to its original
position when it’s not depressed.
IMPORTANT:
Always set the parking brake when
leaving the tractor unattended.
CARGO NET (Not Shown)
Conveniently located on the tractor’s dash panel, the
cargo net can be used to store personal items while
operating the tractor.
