First-time operators should use speed positions 1 or 2 on the shift lever (if equipped). Become completely familiar with the riding mower's operation and controls before operating the riding mower at higher speeds. NOTE: When operating the riding mower initially, there will be little difference between the highest two speeds on the shift lever (if equipped) until after the belts have seated themselves into the pulleys during the break-in period.
