1.Speed Control Lever:
The operator’s right hand lever is the Forward/Reverse Lever. The Forward/Reverse Lever is used to control the speed and direction of the machine. The machine is equipped with a Neutral Lockout which prevents the Forward/Reverse Lever from accidentally being moved from the Neutral Position. The further the Forward/Reverse Lever is moved the faster the machine will move in that direction.
2.Transmission Engage/Disengage Lever:
Transmission Engage/Disengage lever has two (2) positions onto which it can be moved: Engaged position (Up) allows the transmission to operate the rear drive wheels by the means of meshing a Small Pinion Gear with a Larger Gear attached to the Rear Axle. When the Transmission Engage/Disengage Lever is moved to the Disengage (Down) position the saw ca be “Free Wheeled” or moved without running the engine. NOTE:
When parking the saw, it should always be left in the Engaged position, Speed Control Lever in the neutral position, the engine OFF, and perpendicular (right angle) to the grade (hill).
CAUTION: Only move the Engage the Engage/Disengage Lever when the Transmission Forward/Reverse Lever is in the Neutral Position. Engaging the Engage/Disengage Lever when the Transmission Forward/Reverse Lever is in any other position can damage the Rear Axle Drive Gears
