OPERATION
30-Husqvarna
8052-001
Set blade engagement and throttle control
Engage the mower deck by pulling out the blade 6.
switch.
Move throttle control to full throttle. 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 (zero turn) can be achieved by
moving one control backward (behind the neutral
position) and carefully moving the other steering
control forward from its neutral position.
Operating On Hills
Read the Safety Instructions “Driving on Slopes” in the
“Safety Instructions”.
The slowest speed possible should be used before
starting up or down hills.
Avoid stopping or changing speed on hills.
If stopping is absolutely necessary, pull drive
levers into the neutral position and push to the
outside of the unit and engage the parking brake.
To restart movement, release the parking brake.
Pull the control levers back to the center of the
mower and press forward to regain forward
motion.
Make all turns slowly.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Control levers return to neutral when released.
This may cause the mower to suddenly stop.
