Motion Control Lever
The motion control lever, located in the center of the
steering control, controls the forward and reverse
motion of the machine (see Figure 4).
Moving the lever forward or backward turns the
wheels forward or reverse respectively. Wheel speed
is proportional to the amount the lever is moved.
Moving the lever to the center position places the
machine in neutral position.
When the motion control lever is released, it will
return to the neutral position.
Note:
If the motion control lever does not return
to the neutral position when released, contact an
Authorized Service Dealer.
