Traction Pedal
The traction pedal (Figure 25) controls forward and reverse
operation. Depress the top of the pedal to move forward and
the bottom to move backward. Ground speed depends on
how far the pedal is depressed. For no load, maximum ground
speed, fully depress the pedal while the throttle is in Fast.
To stop, reduce your foot pressure on the traction pedal and
allow it to return to the center position.
Tilt Steering Pedal
To tilt the steering wheel towards you, press the foot pedal
(Figure 25) down, and pull the steering tower toward you to
the most comfortable position and then release the pedal.

Mow Speed Limiter
When the mow speed limiter (Figure 26) is flipped up it will
control the mow speed and allow the cutting units to be
engaged. Each spacer adjusts the mowing speed by ½ mile
per hour. The more spacers you have, on the top of the bolt
the slower you will go. For transport, flip back the mow speed
limiter and you will have maximum transport speed.
Speed Limiter Screws
Adjust the screw(s) (Figure 26) to limit the amount the
traction pedal can be depressed in the forward or reverse
direction to limit speed.
Important: The speed limiter screw must stop the
traction pedal before the pump reaches full stroke or
damage to the pump may occur.
