CONTROLS

Throttle Control

The throttle control regulates the engine speed
and thereby the rate of rotation of the blades,
assuming the blade switch is pulled out.
To increase or decrease the engine speed, the
control is moved forward or back respectively.
Avoid idling the engine for long periods, as there
is a risk of fouling the spark plugs. USE FULL
THROTTLE WHEN MOWING, for best mower
performance and battery charging.

Steering Control Levers

The machine’s speed and direction are
continuously variable using the two steering
controls. The steering controls can be moved
forward or backward about a neutral position.
There is a neutral position, which is locked if the
steering controls are moved out.
When both controls are in the neutral position (N),
the machine stands still.
Forward
Neutral
Reverse
Park
Brake
By equally moving both controls forward or
backward, the machine moves in a straight line
forward or backward. 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.
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. The rotation direction
when zero turning is determined by which
steering control is moved backward behind the
neutral position. If the left steering control is pulled
backward, the machine turns to the left. Use more
care when using this maneuver.
If the steering controls are in uneven positions
when standing still or do not t in the slots for
moving the controls out, they can be adjusted.

Park Brake

The park brake is integrated with the steering
control levers. Move both levers out from the
neutral position to engage the park brake.
To release the park brake, pull both steering
control levers inwards to the neutral position at
the same time. Do not try to operate the unit
without both levers being inwards out of the
engaged position or machine components could
be damaged.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Failure to bring
the steering / park brake controls inward at the
same time will cause the unit's safety system to
shut the unit down.
WARNING! The machine can turn very
rapidly if one steering control is moved much
further forward than the other.
