4.3.1 Left Turn
Do NOT oversteer. Avoid the tendency to push or pull
harder on the steering system if the vehicle is not re-
sponding as expected. Once the vehicle's wheels have
been locked, pushing or pulling harder on the steering
system will not increase the turning capacity of the ve-
hicle. Damage may occur to the steering system as a
result of oversteering.
All S Models
To make a left turn, pull back on the left steering lever to stop
the wheels on the left side of the vehicle. When the turn has
been completed, return the left steering lever forward against
the dash.
All V, H, F, C, R, B, A and N Models
To make a left turn, pull back on the left steering bar while at
the same time pushing on the right to stop the wheels on the
left side of the vehicle. When the turn has been completed,
return the steering bar to the centre position.
4.3.2 Right Turn
All S Models
Pull the right steering lever back and return it to the dash
when the turn has been completed.
All V, H, F, C, R, B, A and N Models
Pull back on the right steering bar while at the same time push-
ing on the left to stop the wheels on the right side of the
vehicle. When the turn has been completed, return the steer-
ing bar to the centre position.
4.4 BACKING THE VEHICLE UP
With the engine at idle, shift the transmission into reverse.
Hold the steering levers forward against the dash (All S mod-
els), or ensure that the steering handle bar is centred (All V, H,
F, C, R, B, A and N models). Turn the throttle twist grip slowly
until the clutch engages and the vehicle moves backwards.
Increase speed by gradually turning the accelerator twist grip.
4.4.1 Turning The Vehicle While Backing Up
All S Models
Pull the left steering lever back to make a turn to the left. Pull
the right steering lever back to make a turn to the right.
All V, H, F, C, R, B, A and N Models
Pull on the right bar and push on the left to turn right. Pull on
the left bar and push on the right to turn left. When turning
the vehicle while backing up, the rear of the vehicle swings in
the direction of the turn. This is unusual for most people who
are not familiar with skid steer vehicles. Carefully practice
backing up and turning in an open area until you become
accustomed to this procedure. Take precautions to avoid hit-
ting persons or objects.
Do not push against the firewall with your knees. Dam-
age to the firewall and serious personal injury can re-
sult from the driven clutch wearing through the firewall.
