MOW PEDAL (Fig. 11)—Depressing the mow pedal
FULLY during operation lowers the cutting units and
starts the reels. The mow pedal will stay depressed so
the operator need not hold the pedal down.

an automotive drum-type mechanical brake at each
traction wheel.
LIFT PEDAL (Fig. 11)—Depressing the lift pedal
during operation stops the reels from turning and lifts
the cutting units. The lift pedal must be FULLY
depressed until the cutting units are fully raised and
have stopped rotating.

PARKING BRAKE BUTTON (Fig. 11)—
Depressing the brake pedal to actuate the brake
assembly, then depressing the parking brake button

by depressing the brake pedal. Form the habit of
locking the parking brake before you leave the
machine.
TRACTION PEDAL (Fig. 11)—The traction pedal
makes the machine move forward, backward or stop.
Depress the top of the pedal to move forward and the
bottom of the pedal to move backward. Also, allow

THROTTLE CONTROL (Fig. 13)—The throttle
controls the engine speed. Moving the throttle control
toward FAST increases engine rpm; moving the
throttle toward SLOW decreases engine rpm.
NOTE: You cannot stop the engine using the throttle
control.
CHOKE (Fig. 13) —To start a cold engine, close the
carburetor choke by moving the choke control
forward to the CLOSED position. After the engine
starts, regulate the choke to keep the engine running
smoothly. As soon as possible, open the choke by
pulling it rearward to OPEN. A warm engine requires
little or no choking.
