DRIVING THE RIDING MOWER
Avoid sudden starts, excessive speed, and sudden stops.
Never reach through the Steering Wheel to press any buttons on the
front dash while the mower is in motion.
When driving the mower immediately after full charge (i.e., just after
removing it from the charger) the mower will operate at lower speeds and start slowly,
even when the mower pedals are fully depressed. The mower will also “pulse break”
when traveling downhill during this period. This rapid deceleration is designed to avoid
damaging the electrical system. This is normal and will stop once the mower has been in
use
In case of a system fault or a complete loss of battery power, the mower
can freewheel. Depress the Brake Pedal to maintain control and stop the unit. Restart
the mower. If the problem persists contact PRORUN Customer Service.
1. Release the Parking Brake Handle.
2. To travel FORWARD, use your foot to slowly press down on the Forward Drive Pedal
until the desired speed is achieved.
3. To travel in REVERSE, first look down and behind the mower, then use your foot to
slowly press down on the Reverse Drive Pedal until the desired speed is achieved.
4. To slow down the mower slowly releases the Forward Drive or Reverse Drive Pedal.
To stop the mower press down on the Brake Pedal.
TO USE THE CRUISE CONTROL:
1. Press down on the Forward Drive Pedal.
2. While maintaining the desired speed, press the Cruise Control Button on the Right
Hand Console then release the Forward Drive Pedal. The Cruise Control will now
be activated.
Cruise Control will not engage in reverse.
3. To release the Cruise Control, press the Brake Pedal, or the Forward Drive Pedal, or
the Reverse Drive Pedal, or the Cruise Control Button.
DRIVING ON SLOPES
Refer to the Slope Gauge on page 38 to help determine slopes where you may
operate the mower safely.
Do not mow on inclines with a slope and in excess of 15° (a rise of
approximately 2 1/2 feet every 10 feet). The mower could overturn and cause serious
injury.
