Steering Handle Operation

Watch for hidden hazards on the terrain during operation.

Practice steering maneuvers at half throttle.

Moving steering levers rapidly from forward to reverse or reverse to forward could cause loss of control.

Do not operate power unit with attachment removed. Attachment is required for power unit stability.

NOTE: Speed and direction are controlled with steer- ing handles. Pushing handles forward will move power unit forward. Pulling handles to the rear will move the power unit in reverse. The further forward or rearward

the steering handles are moved, the faster the machine will move.

Steering Handle Positions

NOTICE

■If you become confused during operation, return both handles to the center NEUTRAL posi- tion and the power unit will stop.

Forward	Both handles forward
Reverse	Both handles rearward
Gentle Right	Left handle further forward than right
Gentle Left	Right handle further forward than left
360° Left	Left full rearward / right full forward
360° Right	Right full rearward / left full forward

NOTE: Moving one handle forward with the other han- dle in NEUTRAL will also result in a 360-degree circle. However this will cause one drive wheel to dig into the turf and should be avoided.
