9.3.1 Ground speed control lever
(DOMINATOR 150 / 140)
The bottom part of the multi-function handle is referred
to as the ground speed control lever.
The ground speed control lever (1) sets the direction of
travel and the ground speed within the respective
gears in an infinitely variable way.
The respective gears must be engaged separately
before starting off. See Shifting gears.
Forward travel
The further the ground speed control lever (1) is
moved from the neutral position (N) in direction (A),
the higher the forward travel speed will be.
Stopping

moved to the neutral position (N), the slower the
machine moves.
When the ground speed control lever (1) is in neutral
position (N), the machine stops. In addition, depress
the foot brake pedals downwards. See braking / stop-
ping the machine.
Reverse travel
The further the ground speed control lever (1) is
moved from the neutral position (N) in direction (B),
