Drive Handles

The drive handles (left and right) are located at the top of the control tower. The drive handles are used to move, steer, and stop the Z-Series. The drive handles will return toward the neutral position when released; however, the driver should place the drive handles in

the neutral position so the unit will not move. If the drive handles are not placed in the neutral position, the Z- Series may creep. See Figure 1 and Figure 7.

When the engine is running, the unit will move in accordance with the drive handles (push, pull, or both) as they are moved from the neutral position. When the drive handles are released, they immediately return towards the neutral position as the unit slows to a stop position (while the engine continues to run).

The rear wheels move and steer the unit. The left drive handle controls the left rear wheel and the right drive handle controls the right rear wheel. When a drive handle is moved forward, the respective wheel turns forward. When a drive handle is moved backward, the respective wheel turns in reverse.

Each drive handle has a range in the forward position (push) and the reverse position (pull). The drive handles can be moved together in the same direction or independent of each other in any combination (i.e. left push, right pull). refer also to the Quick Reference OPERATION section. See Figure 8.
