Throttle / Choke Control
The throttle control lever is located on the left side
of the tractor’s dash panel. This lever controls the
speed of the engine, as well as the choke when it
is pushed all the way forward. When set in a given
position, the throttle will maintain a uniform engine
speed.
IMPORTANT:
When operating the tractor with the
cutting deck engaged, be certain that the throttle
lever is always in the FAST (rabbit) position.
Moving the throttle lever all the way forward
activates the engine’s choke control. 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.
Ignition Switch Module
The ignition switch module is activated to start the engine. Insert
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 4-2.
WARNING!
Never leave a running machine
unattended. Always disengage PTO, move shift lever
into neutral position, set parking brake, stop engine
and remove key to prevent unintended starting.
IMPORTANT:
Prior to operating the tractor, refer to both Safety
Interlock Switches and Starting The Engine in the Operation section
of this manual for detailed instructions regarding the Ignition Switch
Module.
