CONTROLS

1. Steering Control Levers

The machine’s speed and direction are continuously variable using the two steering controls. The steering controls can be moved forward or backward about a neutral position. Furthermore, there is a neutral position, which is locked if the steering controls are moved outward.

When both controls are in the neutral position (N), the machine stands still.

By moving both controls an equal amount forward or backward, the machine moves in a straight line forward or backward respectively.

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.

Zero turn can be achieved by moving one control backward (behind the neutral position) and carefully moving the other steering control forward from its neutral position. The rotation direction when zero turning is determined by which steering control is moved backward behind the neutral position. If the left steering control is pulled backward, the machine turns to the left. Use extra care when using this maneuver.

If the steering controls are in uneven positions when standing still or do not fit in the slots for moving the controls outward, they can be adjusted.

Another critical feature is the hydrostatic transmission. This technology allows for smooth and straightforward speed adjustments, offering exceptional maneuverability when navigating around obstacles. The zero-turn radius design is excellent for achieving precise turns, making mowing around trees and flower beds effortless.

In terms of durability, Husqvarna has built these mowers with premium materials, ensuring longevity and reliability even under strenuous conditions. The reinforced chassis and heavy-duty wheels provide stability, contributing to the overall handling of the machines.

Lastly, maintenance is straightforward with these mowers. Accessible maintenance points and a belt-driven transmission reduce wear and tear, extending the life of the machine.
