Control Functions
The information below briefly describes the function of individual controls. Starting, stopping, driving, and
mowing require the combined use of several controls applied in specific sequences. To learn what combination
and sequence of controls to use for various tasks see the OPERATION section.
Ground Speed Levers
These levers control the ground speed of the rider.
The left lever controls the left rear drive wheel and
the right lever controls the right rear drive wheel.
Moving a lever forward increases the FORWARD
speed of the associated wheel, and pulling back on a
lever increases the REVERSE speed.
Note: The further a lever is moved away from the
neutral position the faster the drive wheel will turn.
See the Operating the Zero Turn Rider section for
steering instructions.
