DRIVING _________________________________________________________________
Read and follow all safety instructions contained in this manual when you operate the mower. When you operate in the
reverse direction, look behind you to make sure you have a clear path. Do not mow in reverse.
Slowly and equally push both the right-side and left-side control levers toward the forward stop to drive the mower in the
forward direction. The more the levers are pressed the more the forward speed is increased. Press the levers against
the forward stop for the maximum forward speed.
To prevent personal injury or death, do not quickly move the steering control levers or suddenly start and stop the
mower. You must use more caution when you turn the mower or when you operate on slopes.
Slowly and equally pull both the right-side and left-side control levers toward the reverse stop to drive the mower in the
reverse direction. The more the levers are pulled the more the reverse speed is increased. Press the levers against the
reverse stop for the maximum reverse speed.
To turn the mower to the left, push the right-side drive lever more than the left-side drive lever. The greater the
difference in lever position, the sharper the mower will turn. To do a zero radius left turn, press the right-side lever
toward the forward stop and pull the left-side lever toward the reverse stop.
To turn the mower to the right, push the left-side drive lever more than the right-side drive lever. The greater the
difference in lever position, the sharper the mower will turn. To do a zero radius right turn, press the left-side lever
toward the forward stop and pull the right-side lever toward the reverse stop.
