OPERATION
ATTACHMENTS
This unit can use many different attachments. This unit can pull
attachments like a lawn sweeper, a lawn aerator, a hopper spreader,
or a small trailer. This unit can not use attachments that engage the
ground like a plow, a disk harrow, or a cultivator.
For all pull-behind attachments or trailers, the maximum gross
weight is 200 pounds. Gross weight is the weight of the attachment
or trailer and any load that might be on or in it.
Do not operate on a slope that is greater than 10 degrees when
using a pull-behind attachment or trailer. We have included a slope
guide in this book to help you determine the slope on which you will
be operating your unit. Never allow someone to stand or ride on or
in an attachment or trailer.
HOW TO USE
THE THROTTLE / CHOKE CONTROL
Use the throttle/choke control to choke the engine for cold starts
and increase or decrease the speed of the engine (see Figure 3).
1. Move the throttle/choke control completely forward to the
CHOKE position to start a cold engine.
2.
The FAST position is marked with a detent. For normal opera-
tion and when using a grass bagger, move the throttle control
to the FAST position. For maximum charging of the battery and
for a cooler running engine, operate the engine in the FAST
position.
3. The engine governor is set at the factory for maximum perfor-
mance. Do not adjust the governor to increase the speed of the
engine.
