7. The machine's speed and direction are
continuously variable using the two
motion control levers. The motion control
levers can be moved forward or
backward about a neutral position.
Furthermore, there is a neutral position,
which is locked if the motion control
levers are moved outward into the
neutral slots.
When both controls are in the neutral
position (N), the machine stands still.
The motion control levers on each side of
the mower control the direction of
movement. The left lever controls the
flow of oil from the left hydro pump to the
left wheel motor. The right lever controls
the flow of oil from the right hydro pump
to the right wheel motor.
