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 can be achieved by
moving one control backward (behind
the neutral position) and carefully moving
the other steering control forward from its
neutral position.

Instructions".

The slowest speed possible should be
used before starting up or down hills.

Avoid stopping or changing speed on

If stopping is absolutely necessary, pull
drive levers into the neutral position and
push to the outside of the unit and
engage the park brake.

To restart movement, release the park

Pull the control levers back to the center
of the mower and press forward to regain
forward motion.

Make all turns slowly.
