RH and LH Drive Control Levers
The RH and LH control levers are located on each side of the operator’s seat. These
hinged levers pivot outward to open space to permit the operator to either sit in the
tractor seat, or to dismount the tractor. The levers must be fully opened out and in
the neutral position to start the tractor engine. When the levers are fully outward,
the parking brake is also engaged.
Each lever controls the respective RH or LH transmission. Consequently, these levers
control all of the movements of the tractor. Driving and steering utilizing these
control levers is quite different from conventional tractors, and will take some
practice to master. Refer to Operation for instructions on using the control levers.
