Reverse Travel Practice

8
LOOK DOWN & BEHIND, then gradually move both ground
speed control levers evenly BACK from neutral. Slow down and
repeat.
NOTE: Practice backing up for several minutes before
attempting to do so near objects. The rider turns sharply in
reverse as well as forward, and backing up straight takes
practice.

Practice Turning Around A Corner

9
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
14
10
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—forward or
back, changes the "pivot point" you turn on.

Executing an End-Of-Row Zero Turn

11
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.
