.1.1
Familiarize yourself with all controls before operating the mower.
3.1.2
Motion Control Levers: Located on each side of the console. The left lever
controls the flow of hydraulic oil from the left hydrostatic pump to the left drive
wheel motor. The right lever controls the flow of hydraulic oil from the right
hydrostatic pump to the right drive wheel motor.
IMPORTANT: To begin movement (forward or backward) the operator must
be in the seat, the brake lever must be disengaged (pushed down) before
the motion control levers can be moved in or the engine will shut off.
When levers are centered in the T-slot the drive system is in the neutral position.
With levers moved out in the T-slot the drive system is in the
neutral lock
position
(See Figure 2).
FIGURE 2
MOTION CONTROL POSITIONS
By moving both levers an
equal
amount forward or back from the neutral position
the machine can be caused to move forward or backward in a straight line.
Movement of the
left lever forward
will cause the
left drive wheel
to rotate in a
forward direction. Movement of the
right lever forward
will cause the
right
drive wheel
to rotate in a forward direction. To
stop
forward travel, pull the
levers back to the neutral position.
To
turn left
while moving forward, move the
left lever
back toward neutral to
slow the left drive wheel.
To
turn right
while moving forward, move the
right lever
back toward neutral to
slow the right drive wheel.
To make a
zero turn
to the
left
, pull the left lever back beyond neutral while
holding the right lever slightly ahead of neutral.
To make a
zero turn
to the
right
, pull the right lever back beyond neutral while
holding the left lever slightly ahead of neutral.
Pulling
the
levers back
from the neutral position will cause the respective drive
wheels to rotate in a
reverse
direction (spring tension can be felt when moving
into reverse from neutral).
To turn to the left while backing, move the left lever forward toward neutral. To
turn to the right while backing, move the right lever forward toward neutral.
