OPERATION
Husqvarna-23

Operator presence levers
Running
Depress one operator presence lever and move the
speed control to the desired speed. Pull the blade
engagement control upwards. Set the desired rpm with
the throttle. The best cutting and bagging is obtained
with engine at top rpm.
While on level terrain, squeeze both drive levers
slightly. Using thumbs, slide each neutral lock out the
locked position. Slowly release both drive levers at the
same time to begin forward motion.
The steering system of this mower uses individual right
and left drive levers on the handle bars. Squeezing
either lever will reduce the speed to that wheel.
With the opposite wheel still under power, a turn is
accomplished.
If the drive lever is squeezed even tighter the wheel
will go into reverse and a tighter more abrupt turn is
accomplished. Turn left by squeezing the left hand
lever or turn right by squeezing the right hand lever.
Reverse
The mower moves to the reverse gear when both drive
levers are pulled fully upward to the handles.
Operating on Hills
Operating on slopes can be hazardous. Read the
Safety Instructions section “Driving on Slopes”.
The slowest speed possible should be used when •
mowing on slopes.
Avoid stopping or changing speed on hills.•
Make all turns slowly.•
WARNING!
Be sure all persons are clear of area
before engaging the blades.
WARNING!
Never use the machine on terrain that
slopes more than 10 degrees.
Mow slopes side to side, not up
and down. Avoid sudden directional
changes.
Tracking Adjustment
If the mower is not tracking straight, check the
air pressure in both rear tires. Recommended air
pressure is 15 psi (1 bar). Tracking should be checked
on a at, level surface.
Turning the tracking knob clockwise will adjust the
mower to the left. Turning the knob counter-clockwise
adjusts the mower to the right.
