WHEEL DRIVE PINS

Eachwheel is equippedwith a wheel drive pin (A, Figures3-2 and 3-3) that secures the wheel to the wheel shaft (B). The wheelscan be positioned in either a WHEELDRIVEora FREEWHEELmode.

WARNING: Neverallow either of the wheelsto bein the FREEWHEELposition when the engineis running. Always put both wheelsin the WHEEL DRIVEposition beforestarting the engine.

Failureto comply could cause loss of tiller control, property damage,or personal injury.

Beforestarting the engine,put both wheels in the WHEELDRIVEposition by inserting the wheel drive pins through the wheel hubs and the wheel shaft. Doing so "locks" the wheels to the wheel shaft, causingthe wheelsto turn when either the

Forward Clutch Bail (all models) or the Re- verseClutch Control (Models 634F and 634B) is engaged.

Usethe FREEWHEELmode only when the engineis not running. In FREEWHEEL,the wheel drive pins are placed only through the holes in the wheel shaft (not the wheel hubs), thus allowing the wheels to turn freely when you manually movethe tiller.
