that could be thrown by the rotating blades.
Engage the mower deck by pulling out the

blade switch.

Move throttle control to full throttle. 

6. 

The machine’s speed and direction are 

continuously variable using the two steering 

controls. When both controls are in the neutral 

position, the machine stands still.  

By moving both controls an equal amount 

forward or backward, the machine moves in a 

straight line forward or backward respectively.  

In order, 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.  

Turning on the spot (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.
