neutral in the direction you want to turn (Figure 18).
The farther you move the traction control levers in
either direction, the faster the machine will move in
that direction.
To stop, pull the motion control levers to the neutral
position.

position (also the 4-1/2 inch (114 mm) cutting
height position) (Figure 19).
2. To adjust, remove the clevis pin from the
height-of-cut bracket (Figure 19).
3. Select a hole in the height-of-cut bracket
corresponding to the height-of-cut desired and,
insert the clevis pin (Figure 19).
