The parking brake must be disengaged before attempting to
move the ground speed control levers from the NEUTRAL
position.
Moving a lever forward (A) from the NEUTRAL position (B)
increases the FORWARD speed of the associated wheel, and
pulling back (C) on a lever increases the REVERSE speed.
Moving the levers outwards (D) from the NEUTRAL position
locks the levers in the NEUTRAL LOCKOUT position.
Note:
The further a lever is moved away from the neutral
position the faster the drive wheel will turn.
See the
Zero-Turn Riding Mower Driving Practice
section for
steering instructions.
Fuel Level Gauge:
Displays the fuel level in the
tank.
Parking Brake:
Pull the parking brake lever up
and back to engage the parking brake. Move the lever fully
forward and down to disengage the parking brake.
Note:
To start the unit the parking brake must be engaged.
Engaging the parking brake locks the ground speed control
levers in the NEUTRAL position. The parking brake must be
disengaged before moving the ground speed control levers
out of the NEUTRAL position.
