Throttle Control
Located in the center of the control console (see

The throttle is used to control engine speed. Moving
the throttle lever forward will increase engine speed
and moving the throttle lever to the rear will decrease
engine speed. Moving the throttle forward into the

The brake lever engages a parking brake on to the
drive tires.
To engage, pull the lever up and forward.
To disengage the brake, push the lever back and
down.
When parking on a steep slope, the wheels must be
chocked or blocked in addition to the brake being
engaged. The machine must be tied down and brake
engaged when transporting.
Ignition Switch
Located on the right side of the control console.
The ignition switch is used to start and stop the
engine. The switch has three positions “OFF”, “ON”
and “START”. Insert key into switch and rotate
clockwise to the “ON” position. Rotate clockwise to
the next position to engage the starter (key must be
held against spring pressure in this position). Allow
the key to return to the “ON” position immediately
after the engine starts.
