ENGINE SPEED CONTROLS
CAUTION: Always select engine speed to
ensure safe operation. Reduce speed prior
to turning or reversing tractor.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT “race” or excessively load cold
engine.
FIG. 48: Throttle lever, 1 - Controls engine speed and
will remain in position selected by the operator. With
hand lever forward (
), engine will idle. Engine speed
increases as lever is pulled progressively rearward ( ).
Accelerator pedal, 2 - Will override setting of the throttle
lever for increased engine speed. When the pedal is re-
leased, engine speed returns to the throttle lever setting.
CAUTION: When using the accelerator ped-
al, the throttle lever must be in low idle
speed position. This ensures maximum “en-
gine braking” when the pedal is released.
NOTE: Accelerator pedal, 2, is not equipped with hy-
drostatic transmission type.
