Parking Brake

CONTROLS

Parking Brake

The parking brake is found on the right side of the machine. Pull the lever backward to activate the brake and forward to release it.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The machine must stand absolutely still when applying the parking brake. Always set the parking brake before dismounting. Release the parking brake before moving the mower.

Throttle Control

The throttle control regulates the engine speed and thereby the rate of rotation of the blades.

In order to increase or decrease the engine speed, the control is moved forward or back respectively.

Avoid idling the engine for long periods, as there is a risk of fouling the spark plugs.

USE FULL THROTTLE WHEN MOWING, for best mower performance and battery charging.

Ignition Switch

The ignition switch is placed on the control panel and is used to start and stop the engine.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not run the starter for more than five seconds each time. If the engine does not start, wait about 10 seconds before retrying.
