12. OPERATION
Using the lever guide for fine control.
If you use the lever guide, it is easier to make fine adjustments in the
steering direction.
There are the following two methods of using the lever guide.
A: Hook your fingers or thumb over the left or right guides, and operate
the steering with a light touch.
B: Keep your wrist fixed and run all your fingers along the front of the
guide to operate the steering.
Select the method which you find best matches the frequency and ease of
use.
