Ground speed is proportionate to how far the pedal
is pressed. For maximum ground speed, you must
fully press traction pedal while throttle is in the F
position. Maximum speed forward is as follows:
•
Model No. 31900 and 31901: 21 km/h (13 mph)

Model No. 31907 and 31909: 24 km/h (15 mph)
To get maximum power under heavy load or when
ascending a hill, have the throttle in the F
while pressing traction pedal slightly to keep the
engine speed (rpm) high. If the engine speed begins
to decrease rapidly, release the traction pedal slightly
to allow the engine speed to increase.
