Ignition Switch
The ignition switch has three positions, Off, Run and
Start. The key will turn to Start and move back to
Run upon release. Turning the key to the Off position
will stop the engine; however, always remove the key
when leaving the machine to prevent someone from
accidentally starting the engine (Figure 5).
Throttle Control
The throttle controls the engine speed and it has a
continuous variable setting from Slow to Fast (Figure 5).
Choke Control
Pull up on the Choke control until it stops to choke the
engine (Figure 5). Push down on the Choke control for
normal engine operation
Blade Control Switch (Power Take-Off)
The blade control switch, represented by a power
take-off (PTO) symbol, engages and disengages power
to the mower blades (Figure 5).
Motion Control Levers and Parking
Brake Position
The motion control levers are speed sensitive controls of
independent wheel motors. Moving a lever forward or
backward turns the wheel on the same side forward or in
reverse; wheel speed is proportional to the amount the
lever is moved. Move the control levers outward from
the center to the park position and exit the machine
(Figure 17). Always position the motion control levers
into the park position when you stop the machine or
leave it unattended.
Smart Speed
™
Control System Lever
The Smart Speed™ Control System lever, located below
