Operation

Choke Control

Located on right console (black lever) (see Figure 6).

The choke is used to aid in starting a cold engine. Moving the choke lever forward will put the choke in the “ON” position and moving the choke lever to the rear, to the detent, will put the choke in the “OFF” position. Do Not run a warm engine with choke in the “ON” position.

Depress the release button and push downward to disengage the brake.

Ignition Switch

Located on right console (see Figure 6).

The ignition switch is used to start and stop the engine. The switch has three positions “OFF”, “ON” and “START”. Insert key into switch and rotate clockwise to the “ON” position. Rotate clockwise to the next position to engage the starter (key must be held against spring pressure in this position). Allow the key to return to the “on” position immediately after the engine starts.

Throttle Control

Located on right console (red lever) (see Figure 6).

The throttle is used to control engine speed. Moving the throttle lever forward will increase engine speed and moving the throttle lever to the rear will decrease engine speed. Moving the throttle forward into the detent is full throttle.

Brake Lever

Located on right side of unit, just to the front of the RH motion control lever.

The brake lever engages a parking brake on the drive wheels.

Note: The LCD indicator appears in the message display on the RH console when the park brake is engaged (see Figure 9).

Pull the lever up and rearward to engage the brake.
