ADVANCED DRIVING
Executing an End-Of-Row Zero
Turn
Your Zero Turn Rider’s unique ability to turn
in place allows you to turn around at the end
of a cutting row rather than having to stop
and Y-turn before starting a new row.
For example, to execute a left end-of row
Zero Turn:
1. Slow down at the end of the row.
2. Move the RIGHT ground speed control
lever forward slightly while moving the
LEFT ground speed control lever back to
center and then slightly back from center.
3. Begin mowing forward again.
This technique turns the rider LEFT and
slightly overlaps the row just cut —eliminating
the need to back up and re-cut missed grass.
As you become more familiar and experi-
enced with operating the Zero Turn rider, you
will learn more maneuvers that will make
your mowing time easier and more enjoyable.
Remember, the more you practice, the bet-
ter your control of the Zero Turn will be!
Operating the Zero Turn Rider
Practice Turning Around a Corner
While traveling forward allow one handle to gradually
return back toward neutral. Repeat several times.
NOTE: To prevent pivoting directly on the tire tread, it is
best to keep both wheels going at least slightly forward.

Practice Turning In Place
To turn in place, “Zero Turn,” gradually move one ground
speed control lever forward from neutral and one lever
back from neutral simultaneously. Repeat several times.
NOTE: Changing the amount each lever is pulled—for-
ward or back, changes the “pivot point” you turn on.
