WARNING! Read and follow all safety rules and 
instructions in this manual, including the entire 
Operation section, before attempting to operate 
this machine. Failure to comply with all safety rules 
and instructions may result in personal injury.
Throttle/Choke Control
The throttle/choke control is located on the left 
side of the tractor’s dash panel. This lever controls 
the speed of the engine and, when pushed all the 
way forward, closes the choke for cold starting. 
When set in a given position, the throttle will 
maintain a uniform engine speed.
NOTE: When operating the tractor with the  
cutting deck engaged, be certain that the 
throttle/choke control is always in the FAST 
(rabbit) position.

interlock switch when starting the tractor.
