Abstract

A control mechanism for an aerator mechanism, the control mechanism being coupled with the engine for automatically slowing the engine when the aerator mechanism is shifted between transport and operating positions. The engine control mechanism includes a solenoid coupled with an operator engagable position control mechanism and an arm of an engine governor such that the governor will slow the engine when the position control mechanism is engaged to shift the aerator mechanism between transport and operating positions.
