CONTROL FUNCTIONS
The information below briefly describes the function of individual controls. Starting, stopping, driving, and mowing
require the combined use of several controls applied in specific sequences. To learn what combination and sequence
of controls to use for various tasks see the OPERATION section.
Please take a moment and familiarize
yourself with the name, location, and
function of these controls so that you will
better understand the safety and operating
instructions provided in this manual.
A. Ground Speed Control Levers
These levers control the ground speed of the mower.
The left and right levers are tied together so you can
operate either lever to control the mower’s ground

Moving a lever forward increases the FORWARD speed
of the mower, and pulling back on a levers increases the
REVERSE speed.
Note: The further a lever is moved away from the neutral
position the faster the mower will travel.
