Operation
Driving Forward or Backward
The Enhanced T–Bar control system is designed to
provide easy and comfortable operation of the
hydrostatic drive. The control regulates ground speed,
as well as forward, reverse and neutral functions, as
well as steering direction.
The throttle control regulates the engine speed as
measured in rpm (revolutions per minute). Place the
throttle control in the "FAST" position for best
performance.
Operate the machine with the engine speed set at slow
or medium when learning how to use the controls.
Practice driving the machine in a level open area.
Ground Speed
1.
Place the quick release levers in the unlock
position (Fig. 12).
2.
Move the reference bar forward or backward to
desired forward speed. The pointer indicates
approximate ground speed (Fig. 12). When the
bar is in the full forward position the ground
speed is approximately 6 mph. When the bar is
in the middle position the ground speed is
approximately 3 mph.
Note:
In normal conditions, a 2.5 to 3.0 mph
ground speed (middle position of the
reference bar) is best for cutting
performance. Use a faster ground speed
for light cutting or transport. Use a
slower ground speed in heavy cutting
loads.
3.
Place the quick release levers in the lock position
(Fig. 12).

Forward
1.
To go forward, slowly press on the upper control
bar against the reference bar (Fig. 12).
2.
To go straight, apply equal pressure to both ends
of the upper control bar (Fig. 12).
3.
To turn, release pressure on the upper control bar
side toward the direction you want to turn
(Fig. 12).
4.
To go straight, apply equal pressure to both sides
of the upper control bar.
5.
Adjust reference handle to maintain a
comfortable pre-set ground speed (Fig. 12).
6.
To stop, release the upper control bar to stop
both wheels (Fig. 12).
Note:
If the front of the deck lifts off the
ground when the upper control bar is
quickly pushed forward or the machine
is unable to drive uphill, an adjustment
may be needed. Refer to: Adjusting
By-pass Valve.
