This operator’s manual describes the Husqvarna Zero Turn Rider. The rider is ﬁtted with a Briggs and Stratton or Kohler four- stroke engine developing 15-18 horse power.

Transmission from the engine is made via two belt-driven hydraulic gears one for each drive wheel. Using the left and right steering controls, the ﬂow is regulated and thereby the direction and speed.
