CONTROLS

PARKING BRAKE:

The parking brake used on the Model ZTR 6601 is designed to hold the mower from moving and is not intended for use in stopping the mower while it is in motion.

CAUTION Engage parking brake before starting engine.

Do not leave engine running for extended periods of time without the parking brake engaged. Damage to the drive system could result.

TO SET PARKING BRAKE:

The hand operated parking brake is located at left hand side of mower.

To engage brake, pull lever up and to the rear. To release

brake, move lever forward and down. NOTE: Always set

parking brake before dismounting. Release parking brake

before moving mower.

HYDRO-GEAR DRIVE SYSTEM:

Allows the mower to turn on its own axis (zero turning radius).

Drive levers control braking, turning, travel speed and direction. Each lever controls one side of the mower.

NOTE: The pressure required to operate the mower is very light.

A minimum of 1/2 hour should be spent simply driving the mower without the blade drive engaged.
