OPERATION

before the motion control levers can be 
moved from the neutral slots or the engine 
will kill.

By moving the levers an equal amount 
forward or back the machine will move in 
a straight line in that direction.

Movement of either lever forward will 
cause the right or left wheel to rotate in a 
forward direction. To stop movement pull 
both levers into the neutral position.

To turn right while moving in a forward 

direction pull the right lever back toward 

the neutral position, this will slow the 

rotation of the right wheel and cause the 

machine to turn in that direction.
To turn left while moving in a forward 
direction pull the left lever back towards 
the neutral position, this will slow the 
rotation of the left wheel and cause the 
machine to turn in that direction.

To zero turn pull one lever back beyond 
neutral while holding the other slightly 
ahead of neutral.

NOTE: 

The direction of the zero turn will be 

determined by which lever is pulled back 
beyond neutral. Thus left lever back, left zero 
turn and opposite for right zero turn. 

Use 

extra care when using this maneuver the 
machine can spin very rapidly if one lever 
is positioned too far ahead of the other.

Mowing Tips 

Locate and mark rocks and other fixed 
objects in order to avoid collisions.

Begin with a high cutting height and 
reduce it until the desired mowing result 
is attained.

The mowing result will be best with a 
high engine speed (the blades rotate 
rapidly) and low speed (the rider moves 
slowly). If the grass is not too long and 

WARNING!
Clear the lawn of stones and 
other objects that can be 
thrown out by the blades.

WARNING!
The machine can turn very 
rapidly if one steering control 
is moved much further forward 
than the other.
