CONTROLS
English - 21
5. Ignition Switch
The ignition key is placed on the driver’s panel and is
used to start and stop the engine.
6. Choke Control
The choke is used for cold starts to provide the engine
with a richer fuel mixture.
Two choke options are available, depending on model.
For units with a separate choke control, pull the choke
control knob up. For units with choke/throttle
combinations, push the throttle control all of the way
forward into the indicated slot.
7. Throttle Control
The throttle control regulates the engine speed and
thereby the rate of rotation of the blades, assuming the
blade switch is pulled out, see Engaging the Mower
Deck.
In order to increase or decrease the engine speed, the
control is moved.
Avoid idling the engine for long periods, as there is a
risk of fouling the spark plug.
USE FULL THROTTLE WHEN MOWING, for best
mower performance and battery charging.
