4.4—THROTTLE LEVER
Push throttle lever (4, Fig. J) forward to increase engine
speed, pull back to decrease the engine speed.
Position throttle at full throttle or slightly less for optimum
power and deck speed during mowing.
4.5—TRACTION PEDAL
The traction pedal (5, Fig. J) operates the forward and the
reverse direction and speed of the tractor.
Moving forward: push the forward or toe of the pedal down
with the ball of your foot, to increase the forward speed.
Moving backward: push the heel of the pedal down with the
heel of your foot, to increase the reverse speed.
When the traction pedal is released the machine will slow
down and stop. The traction pedal must be in neutral position
before mower will start.
4.6—SPEED CONTROL
The speed control (6, Fig. J) is meant to ease operator
fatigue by holding the forward speed to a constant that
is best suited for the present mowing conditions. The
stop also prevents overloading of the pintle shaft.
Adjust the hex head bolt up or down and lock it with the
lock nut to limit the pedal travel. Make sure the pintle
shaft on the pump is not bottomed-out by watching the
linkage deflection when pedel is all the way down.
4.7—DECK LIFT
The Deck Lift valve (7, Fig. J), will lift both wing decks
and rear deck by pulling lever to rear. Pushing lever to
front will lower all deck to the ground. Always lower
decks for mowing and storage.
Do not stand on mowers when in lifted position.
4.8—PARKING BRAKE
A convenient parking brake (8, Fig. J) is located just to
the left side of the operators seat.
Pulling back and over center will engage the parking
brake and moving it forward, as shown, will release it.
See section 6.1 for adjustments.
Always make sure brake is released before mov-
ing forward and ensure that the brake is engaged
when leaving the mower. Never try to stop the
forward motion of the unit with the parking brake.
4.9—DECK DRIVE CONTROL
By toggling the deck drive control switch
ON
(9, Fig.
J), an electric solenoid valve is activated which
engages power to the deck motors.
Pushing the switch to the
OFF
position disengages the
valve. This contrtol must be in the
OFF
position before
mower will start.
4.10—SEAT POSITION LEVER
The position of the seat is adjusted forward or
backward by actuating the seat lever (10, Fig. J).
Releasing the lever will lock the seat at its present
position.
