CONTROL FUNCTIONS

The information below briefly describes the function of individual controls. Starting, stopping, driving, and mowing
require the combined use of several controls applied in specific sequences. To learn what combination and sequence
of controls to use for various tasks see the OPERATION section.
Ground Speed Levers
These levers control the ground speed of the rider. The
left lever controls the left rear drive wheel and the right
controls the right rear drive wheel.
Moving a lever forward increases the FORWARD speed
of the associated wheel, and pulling back on a lever
increases the REVERSE speed.
Note: The further a lever is moved away from the neutral
position the faster the drive wheel will turn.
See the Operating the Zero Turn Rider section for steer-
ing instructions.
Control Locations
Seat Adjustment Lever
The seat can be adjusted forward and back. Move the
lever towards the left, position the seat as desired, and
release the lever to lock the seat in position.
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch starts and stops the engine, it has
three positions:
OFF Stops the engine and shuts off the
electrical system.
RUN Allows the engine to run and powers the
electrical system.
START Cranks the engine for starting.
NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN posi-
tion with the engine stopped–this drains the battery.
