operation. The drive function should respond
quickly and smoothly to operator control. Drive
performance should also be free of hesitation,
jerking and unusual noise over the entire
proportionally controlled speed range.
1 Create start and finish lines by marking two
lines on the ground 40 feet / 12.2 m apart.
