NOTE: This Operator’s Manual covers several models. Tractor
features may vary by model. Not all features in this manual are
applicable to all tractor models and the tractor depicted may
differ from yours.
NOTE: References to LEFT, RIGHT, FRONT, and REAR indicate that
position on the tractor when facing forward while seated in the
operator’s seat.
RH and LH Drive Control Levers
The RH and LH control levers are located on each side of the
operator’s seat. These hinged levers pivot outward to open
space to permit the operator to either sit in the tractor seat, or to
dismount the tractor. The levers must be fully opened out and in
the neutral position to start the tractor engine. When the levers
are fully outward, the parking brake is also engaged.
Each lever controls the respective RH or LH transmission.
Consequently, these levers control all of the movements of the
tractor. Driving and steering utilizing these control levers is quite
different from conventional tractors, and will take some practice
to master. Refer to Operation for instructions on using the control
levers.
Cup Holder
The cup holder is located to the left of the operator’s seat on the
LH console.
Seat Adjustment Lever
The seat adjustment for seats without arm rests is located below
the left of the seat. The seat adjustment for seats with arm rests
is located below the front/right of the seat. The lever allows for
adjustment forward or backward of the operator’s seat. Refer to
the Assembly & Set-Up section for instructions on adjusting the
seat position.
Throttle Control
The throttle control is located on the RH console. When set in a
given position, a uniform engine speed will be maintained.
Push the throttle control handle forward to increase the engine
speed. The tractor is designed to operate with the throttle control
in the fast position (full throttle) when the tractor is being driven
and the mower deck is engaged.
Pull the throttle control handle rearward to decrease the engine
speed.
