THROTTLE CONTROL LEVER

IMPORTANT: When using PTO operated equipment such as the cutting deck or other attachments, ALWAYS operate the tractor with the throttle lever in the FAST (rabbit) position.

CHOKE CONTROL

On some units, moving the throttle lever all the way forward activates the engine’s choke control. On all other units, the choke control can be found on the left side of the dash panel and is activated by

pulling the knob outward. Activating the choke control closes the choke plate on the carburetor and aids in starting the engine. Refer to STARTING THE ENGINE in the OPERATION section of this manual for detailed starting instructions.

SYSTEMS INDICATOR MONITOR

Your tractor is equipped with an ammeter as part of its systems indicator monitor and is located on the left side of your tractor’s dash panel. See Figure 6.

If the Brake light or PTO light illuminates when attempting to start the unit, proceed as follows:

Depress the brake pedal.

Move PTO lever into the disengaged (OFF) position.

It is normal for the Oil light to illuminate while the engine is cranking, but if it illuminates while the engine is running, proceed as follows:

OIL— Stop the tractor immediately and check the crankcase oil level as instructed in the seperate engine manual packed with your unit. Add oil as required.

The ammeter measures the the electrical output of the engine’s charging system. Under normal operating conditions, with the engine running at full throttle, the ammeter’s needle should measure a positive charge.
