Move throttle control to full throttle (not choke). 7.
The machine’s speed and direction are
continuously variable using the two steering
controls. When both controls are in the neutral
position, the machine stands still.
By moving both controls an equal amount
forward or backward, the machine moves in a
straight line forward or backward respectively.
In order, for example, to turn right while
moving forward, move the right control
towards the neutral position. The rotation of the
right wheel is reduced and the machine turns
to the right.
Turning on the spot can be achieved by
moving one control backward (behind the
neutral position) and carefully moving the
other steering control forward from its neutral
position.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Control levers return to neutral when released.
This may cause the mower to suddenly stop.
