Neutral Return Pedals
The neutral return pedals provide a hands-free return to neutral.
The pedals are used in conjunction with the drive levers to
properly stop the machine. The two pedals are connected
together so depressing one depresses both.
The operator must fully depress the neutral pedal downwards
to return the mower to neutral. The mower must be in the neutral
position to start the engine.
See the
Stopping the Mower
