A. Controls
1. Engine ON/OFF Switch:
The ON/OFF switch is located on the far left side of the control
panel. To start the engine, set the switch to the "ON" Position.
To turn off the engine, set the switch to the "OFF" Position.
2. Fuel Shutoff Valve:
The fuel shutoff valve is located between the carburetor and
the fuel tank on the LH side of the engine. The handle turns 90
degrees to open or close. When the handle is in the horizontal
position, it will open the fl ow of fuel to the engine. When it
is turned to a vertical position, it will shut off the fuel fl ow to
the engine. Anytime the spreader is being trailered, or if the
machine will not be in use for 30 minutes or more, close the
fuel shutoff valve to prevent fl ooding the engine.
3. Speed Control Lever:
The speed control lever limits the forward speed of the unit
by limiting the travel of the forward control lever. "Application
speed" sets the unit's ground speed to about 3 mph. Use a
slower speed while learning how to use and control the unit.
4. Ground Speed Control Levers:
Located on the right side of the control panel is the forward
ground speed control lever. The left lever is for reverse. These
two levers control the maximum output of the hydrostatic
transaxle and thus the ground speed of the spreader
independent of the engine speed. Pulling the right lever
rearward increases the forward speed and pulling the left
lever rearward Increases the reverse speed. Do not move
both levers in unison, only pull one at a time. When the levers
are moved in unison they will place excessive pressure on the
cables, which could cause them to break. To start the engine,
ensure both levers are in their neutral position.
