Features and Controls

See Figure 2 for location.
Throttle/Choke Control
(Choke-A-Matic)
The throttle/choke controls the engine speed and
choke (see Figure 2). Move the throttle/choke
control to the FAST position to increase engine
speed and SLOW position to decrease engine
speed. Always operate at full throttle. Move the
throttle/choke control to the CHOKE position for
starting a cold engine. A warm engine may not
require choking.
NOTE: Always operate the rider with the throttle/
choke control in the FAST position.
Reverse Mowing Option (RMO)
The Reverse Mowing Option allows for mowing
(or use of other PTO driven attachments) while
traveling in reverse. If you choose to mow or
operate another attachment in reverse, turn the
RMO key after the PTO is engaged. The L.E.D.
light will illuminate, and the operator can then
mow in reverse. Each time the PTO is disengaged
the RMO needs to be reactivated if desired.
Power Take-Off (PTO) Switch
The PTO (Power Take-Off) switch engages and
disengages attachments that use the PTO. To
engage the PTO, pull UP on the switch. Push
DOWN to disengage.
NOTE: that the operator must be seated firmly in
the tractor seat for the PTO to function.

Ignition Switch

The ignition switch starts and stops the engine,
and it controls the headlights. It has four positions:
OFF Stops the engine and shuts off the
electrical system.
RUN
Allows the engine to run and powers
the electrical system.
START Cranks the engine for starting.
The headlight position on the
HEAD-
ignition switch turns the headlight
LIGHTS
ON and OFF.
NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN
position with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.

Ground Speed Pedals
The tractor's forward ground speed is controlled
by the forward ground speed control pedal. The
tractor's reverse ground speed is controlled by
the reverse ground speed control pedal.
Depressing either pedal will increase ground
speed. Note that the further down the pedal is
depressed, the faster the tractor will travel.
Seat Adjustment Lever
The seat can be adjusted forward and back.
Move the lever, position the seat as desired, and
release the lever to lock the seat into position.
Catcher Full Alarm
The "catcher full" alarm sounds when the grass
catcher has been filled with cut grass. When the
alarm sounds, disengage the PTO, travel to the
area in which you desire to dump the grass, then
empty the catcher.
NOTE: When using the unit for leaf collection, the
alarm may not be activated by dry leaves.
Parking Brake Knob
This is used to lock the parking brake when the
tractor is stopped. Fully depressing the brake
pedal and pulling up on the knob engages the
parking brake.
Cruise Control
The cruise control is used to lock the ground
speed control in forward. The cruise control has
five lock positions.

The hourmeter displays the total hours, trip hours,
and digital clock. Also provides maintenance
reminder for oil, air filter, blade sharpening (icon
warning) and battery level indicator.
Electronic Dash Panel (if equipped)
