Operation

The lever controls of the Zero Turn rider are 
responsive, and learning to gain a smooth and 
efficient control of the rider’s forward, reverse, and 
turning movements will take some practice.

Spending some time going through the maneuvers 
shown and becoming familiar with how the unit 
accelerates, travels, and steers — before you begin 
mowing —is absolutely essential to getting the most 
out of the Zero Turn rider.

Locate a smooth, flat area of your lawn — one 
with plenty of room to maneuver. (Clear the area 
of objects, people and animals before you begin.) 
Operate the unit at mid-throttle during this practice 
session (ALWAYS operate at full throttle when 
mowing), and turn slowly to prevent tire slippage and 
damage to your lawn.

We suggest you begin with the Smooth Travel 
procedure to the right, and then advance through the 
forward, reverse, and turning maneuvers.

You must release the parking brake prior to moving 
the control levers inward.

Gradually move both ground speed control levers 
— evenly FORWARD from neutral. Slow down and 
repeat.

LOOK DOWN & BEHIND, then gradually move both 
ground speed control levers evenly BACK from 
neutral. Slow down and repeat.

The lever controls of 
the Zero Turn rider are  
responsive.

The BEST method of 
handling the ground 
speed control levers 
is in three steps — as 
shown in Figure 3.

FIRST place your 
hands onto the levers 
as shown.

SECOND, to go 
forward gradually push 
the levers forward with 
your palms.

THIRD, to speed 
up move the levers 
farther forward. To 
slow down smoothly, 
slowly move the levers 
toward neutral.
