Operating Instructions

By moving the levers an equal amount forward or back the machine will move in a straight line in that direction. FIG - 11

Movement of either lever forward will cause the right or left wheel to rotate in a forward direc- tion. To stop movement pull both levers into the neutral position.

To turn right while moving in a forward direction pull the right lever back towards the neutral position, this will slow the rotation of the right wheel and cause the machine to turn in that direction.

To turn left while moving in a forward direction pull the left lever back towards the neutral position, this will slow the rotation of the left wheel and cause the machine to turn in that direction.

To zero turn pull one lever back beyond neutral while holding the other slightly ahead of neu- tral. NOTE: The direction of the zero turn will be determined by which lever is pulled back beyond neutral. Thus left lever back, left zero turn and opposite for right zero turn. Use extra care when using this maneuver the machine can spin very rapidly if one lever is posi- tioned to far ahead of the other.
