throttle (FAST). Control ground speed with

travel speeds when snow throwing,
mowing and tilling.

speeds with the transmission lever
(P, Fig. 6-4).

Use "HIGH" range (0-9 mph) for transport
and mowing.

Use "LOW" range (0-3.3 mph) for heavy
load conditions such as tilling, snow
throwing, plowing or using the front end
loader.
