You must release the parking brake prior to moving the
control levers inward.
Smooth Travel
The ground speed control levers of the zero-turn riding mower
are responsive.
The BEST method of handling the ground speed control
levers is in three steps — as shown in Figure 11.
11
FIRST,place your hands onto the levers as shown.
SECOND, to go forward gradually push the levers forward
with your palms.
THIRD, to speed up move the levers farther forward. To slow
down smoothly, slowly move the levers toward neutral.
Basic Driving
Forward Travel Practice
12
Gradually move both ground speed control levers — evenly
FORWARD from neutral. Slow down and repeat.
Note:Straight forward travel takes practice. If necessary, top
speed can be balance-adjusted — see the Speed Balancing
Adjustment in the MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES section of
this manual.
Reverse Travel Practice
13
LOOK DOWN AND BEHIND, then gradually move both
ground speed control levers evenly BACK from neutral. Slow
down and repeat.
Note:Practice backing up for several minutes before
attempting to do so near objects. The zero-turn riding mower
turns sharply in reverse as well as forward, and backing up
straight takes practice.
