By moving the levers an equal amount forward or
back the machine will move in a straight line in
that direction. FIG - 8
Movement of either lever forward will cause the
right or left wheel to rotate in a forward direction.
To stop movement pull both levers into the neutral
position.
To turn right while moving in a forward direction
pull the right lever back towards the neutral posi-
tion, this will slow the rotation of the right wheel
and cause the machine to turn in that direction.
To turn left while moving in a forward direction pull
the left lever back towards the neutral position,
this will slow the rotation of the left wheel and
cause the machine to turn in that direction.
To zero turn pull one lever back beyond neutral
while holding the other slightly ahead of neutral.
NOTE: The direction of the zero turn will be deter-
mined by which lever is pulled back beyond neu-
tral. Thus left lever back, left zero turn and oppo-
site for right zero turn. Use extra care when us-
ing this maneuver the machine can spin very
rapidly if one lever is positioned too far ahead
of the other.
The tracking knob is located in front of the left con-
trol lever. Rotating this knob allows fine tuning
adjustments so that the machine tracks straight
with the drive levers in the full forward position.
Rotate the knob clockwise (as viewed from the
operating position) to increase the speed or coun-
terclockwise to decrease the speed on the left
control lever. Example: If control levers are full for-
ward and the unit turns to the right, turn the track-
ing knob counterclockwise to decrease the speed
on the left control lever.
