Product Overview
Controls
Note:
Determine the left and right sides of the machine
from the normal operating position.
Accelerator Pedal
The accelerator pedal (Figure 3) gives you the ability to
vary the engine and ground speed of the vehicle when the
transmission is in gear. Pressing the pedal increases engine
speed and the ground speed. Releasing the pedal decreases
the engine speed and the ground speed of the machine.

Clutch Pedal
Press the clutch pedal (Figure 3) fully to disengage the clutch
when starting the engine or shifting the transmission gears.
Release the pedal smoothly when the transmission is in gear
to prevent unnecessary wear on the transmission and other
related parts.
Important:
Do not ride the clutch pedal during
operation. The clutch pedal must be fully out or the
clutch will slip causing heat and wear. Never hold the
vehicle stopped on a hill using the clutch pedal. Damage
to the clutch may occur.
Brake Pedal
Use the brake pedal (Figure 3) to apply the service brakes
to stop or slow the vehicle.
CAUTION
Worn or maladjusted brakes may result in personal
injury. If the brake pedal travels to within 3.8 cm
(1-1/2 inches) of the vehicle floor board, the brakes
must be adjusted or repaired.
Gear Shift Lever
Fully press the clutch pedal and move the shift lever (Figure
4) into the desired gear selection. A diagram of the shift
pattern is indicated below.
Figure 4
Important:
Do not shift the transaxle to the reverse or
forward gear unless the vehicle is standing still. Damage
to the transaxle may occur.
CAUTION
Down shifting from too high a speed can cause
the rear wheels to skid resulting in loss of vehicle
control as well as clutch and/or transmission
damage. Shift smoothly to avoid grinding gears.
Parking Brake
Whenever the engine is shut off, the parking brake (Figure
5) must be engaged to prevent accidental movement of the
vehicle. To engage the parking brake, pull back on the lever.
To disengage, push the lever forward. Release the parking
brake before moving the vehicle. If you park the vehicle
on a steep grade, apply the parking brake. Also, shift the
transmission into 1st gear on a uphill grade or reverse on a
down hill grade. Place chocks at the down hill side of the
wheels.
