Manual Throttle:
All gasoline engine models come with a control panel. If your spreader is a manual
throttle model, look at your control panel. It will have (3) controls
mounted on it. The one on the far left is the start button. The right toggle is the electric
clutch control. When the switch is in the “OFF” position, the electric clutch is disengaged
and the conveyor and spinner will stop. In the “ON” position, conveyor and spinner will operate. The
middle control is the throttle. Your engine is equipped with a semi-
automatic choke. To activate
the choke, pull the throttle cable all the way out. To remove the choke function when engine us warm,
push throttle cable in, to desired engine RPM.
