Cruise control ? for RTV 1100- have bad leg

Dirtball · May 17, 2015

I have a 2013 RTV 1100CRXL-A which is a camo cab built in 2013 before they went to the new body style. I have been pulling two field mowers (Acre-Ease) since I bought it, to cut about 8 acres. Now my right leg is having issues, a cruise control or ground speed control would be great. There is a hi-idle lever but no cruise like my regular tractor. Has anyone rigged up their own ? I phoned Messicks , they said there was no factory option. I do not need precise ground speed control , just some rest for my right leg. I am only mowing grass. ...thanks for any suggestions

yOUR GOING FORWARD BY PUSHING THE foot pedal just like on a car. There is a mechanical device for vehicles and handicapped drivers. It mounts on steering wheel and I guess there is a rod or something going down to the pedal or the rod the pedal is depressing. It operates by pushing a lever forward or back to increase or decrease speed and probably has a locking position.
