How to Use the Throttle Control
Use the throttle control to increase or decrease the
speed of the engine.
CAUTION: Always operate the engine with the
throttle control in the FAST position. If the engine
runs for several minutes at slower than the FAST
position, the engine and transmission will
overheat and can be damaged.
1. Move the throttle/choke control completely
forward to the CHOKE N position to start a cold
engine.
2. The FAST position is marked with a detent. For
normal operation and when using a grass
bagger, move the throttle control to the FAST
position. For maximum charging of the battery
and for a cooler running engine and transmission,
operate the engine in the FAST position.

3. For transport and to tow pull behind attachments,
move the throttle control to the SLOW position.
4. The engine governor is set at the factory for
maximum performance. Do not adjust the
governor to increase the speed of the engine.
How to Use the Blade Rotation Control
The blade rotation control is next to the steering
wheel (Figure 11). Use the blade rotation control to
engage the blade(s) or to operate a snow thrower
attachment.
1. Before you start the engine, make sure the blade
rotation control is in the DISENGAGE position.
2. Move the blade rotation control to the
ENGAGE position to rotate the blade(s).
NOTE: If the engine stops when you engage the
blade(s), the transmission is in reverse.
3. Move the blade rotation control to the
B
DISENGAGE position to stop the blade(s).
Before you leave the operator's position, make
sure the blade(s) has stopped rotating.
4. Before you ride the unit across a sidewalk or a
road, move the blade rotation control to the
DISENGAGE position.

5. Before operating in reverse, move the blade
rotation control to the DISENGAGE position. If

the speed control pedal/shift lever is moved to
REVERSE position.
