WARNING!
Read and follow all safety rules and
instructions in this manual, including the entire
Operation section, before attempting to operate
this machine. Failure to comply with all safety rules
and instructions may result in personal injury.
Throttle/Choke Control
The throttle/choke control is located on the left
side of the tractor’s dash panel. This lever controls
the speed of the engine and, when pushed all the
way forward, closes the choke for cold starting.
When set in a given position, the throttle will
maintain a uniform engine speed.

When operating the tractor with the
cutting deck engaged, be certain that the
throttle/choke control is always in the FAST
(rabbit) position.

interlock switch when starting the tractor.

The seat adjustment lever is located below the front/left of the
