the blades.
5. Place the throttle midway between the
“SLOW” and “FAST” positions.

DRIVING THE MACHINE
TRAINING
Due to unique steering capabilities, zero turn
mowers are far more maneuverable than typical
riding mowers.
This section should be reviewed in its entirety
prior to attempting to move the mower under its
own power. When first operating the mower or
until becoming comfortable with controls, use a
reduced throttle speed and reduced ground
speed. DO NOT move control levers to the
furthest forward or reverse positions during
initial operation.
First time users should become familiar with the
mower’s movement on a hard surface, such as
concrete or blacktop PRIOR to attempting to
operate on turf. Until the operator becomes
comfortable with the mower controls and zero
turning capability, overly aggressive maneuvers
may damage turf.
CAUTION
Erratic movement of the control levers may
cause the Operator to lose control of the
machine, which may cause damage to the
machine or injury.
•
Use slow and steady movement of the
control levers.
•
Use caution when making turns.
•
Slow the machine down before making
sharp turns.
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
stop.
When the motion control levers are positioned
fully outward (apart) in the T-slot, the drive
system is in the neutral lock position (Figure 13).
When the motion control levers are moved
directly inward (together) the drive system is in
the neutral operate position.
DRIVING FORWARD
1. Release the parking brake.
2. Move motion control levers to neutral
operate position.
3. To move forward in a straight line, move
both levers forward with equal pressure.
To turn left or right, pull the motion control lever
back toward neutral in the desired turn direction.
The machine will move faster the farther the
motion control levers are moved from the
neutral position.
4. To stop, position both motion control levers
in the neutral operate position.
DRIVING IN REVERSE
1. Move the motion control levers to the
neutral operate position.
2. To move rearward in a straight line, slowly
move both levers rearward with equal
pressure.
To turn left or right, release pressure on the
motion control lever toward the desired turn
direction.
3. To stop, position both motion control levers
in the neutral operate position.
