Throttle Control Lever
The throttle control lever is located on the right side of
the tractor's dash panel. This lever controls the speed of
the engine. When set in a given position, the throttle will
maintain a uniform engine speed. See Figure 4.
IMPORTANT: When operating the tractor with the cutting
deck engaged, be certain that the throttle lever is always
in the FAST (rabbit) position.
Choke Control
The choke control can be found
on the left side of the dash panel
and is activated by pulling the
knob outward. Activating the
choke control closes the choke
plate on the carburetor and aids
in starting the engine. Refer to
Starting The Engine on page
15 of this manual for detailed
starting instructions.
Brake Pedal
The brake pedal is located on
the right front side of the tractor
above the drive pedal along the
running board. The brake pedal
can be used for sudden stops
or setting the parking brake.
NOTE: The brake pedal must
be fully depressed to activate
the safety interlock switch
when starting the tractor.

The drive pedal is located below the
brake pedal on the right front side of
the tractor along the running board.
Depress the drive pedal with your right
foot when the tractor shift lever is in
either FORWARD or REVERSE to cause
the tractor to move. Ground speed is
also controlled with the drive pedal. The
further down the pedal is depressed, the
faster the tractor will travel. The pedal
will return to its original position when it's
not depressed.
IMPORTANT: Always set the parking brake when leaving
the tractor unattended.
