Product Manual

Lawn Tractor controls and features are illustrated in Figure 4-1
and described on the following pages.
WARNING! Read and follow all safety rules and
instructions in this manual, including the entire
Operation section, before attempting to operate
this machine. Failure to comply with all safety rules
and instructions may result in personal injury.
Throttle Control
The throttle control is located on the console
to the left of the operator’s seat. When set in a
given position, a uniform engine speed will be
maintained.
Push the throttle control handle forward to
increase the engine speed. The tractor is designed
to operate with the throttle control in the fast
position (full throttle) when the tractor is being
driven and the mower deck is engaged.
Pull the throttle control handle rearward to
decrease the engine speed.
Choke Control
The choke knob controls the position of the
engine choke. Pull the knob out to choke the
engine; push the knob in to open the choke.
Throttle/Choke Control*
On some units, the throttle and choke is
constolled by the same lever. In this instance, the
unit will NOT have a choke knob, rather the choke
is controlled by the throttle lever. The throttle/
choke control is located on the left side of the
tractor’s dash panel. This lever controls the speed
of the engine and, when pushed all the way
forward, closes the choke for cold starting. When
set in a given position, the throttle will maintain a
uniform engine speed.
NOTE: When operating the tractor with the
cutting deck engaged, be certain that the
throttle/choke control is always in the FAST (rabbit) position.
