4.7 ADJUSTING GROUND SPEED AND
DIRECTION
-NOTE-
If you are not familiar with the operation of
the hydrostatic drive, practice turning and ma-
neuvering with the foot controls before engag-
ing the blades. Learn the operation in an open
area away from buildings, fences, or obstruc-
tions. Learn the operation on a flat ground
before operating on slopes. Start maneuver-
ing with SLOW engine speed until you are fa-
miliar with all operating characteristics. Prac-
tice maneuvering the mower until you can
make it go exactly where you intend.
-NOTE-
If the mower is driven on public roads, it must
comply with state and local ordinances as well
as SAE J137 and/or ASME S279 requirements.
Contact your local authorities for regulations
and equipment requirements.
-NOTE-
The left operator foot pedal must be depressed
before operation.

Before shifting from forward to reverse, or re-
verse to forward, come to complete stop then
shift the foot pedal to the desired direction.
2. To travel backwards (reverse), depress the right foot
pedal at the heel (See Figure 4-7). The further the
pedal is depressed the faster the mower will travel
backwards. Use slower traveling speed when traveling
backwards and observe the area behind you before
moving.
