Turning While Driving Rearward To turn the tractor while driving rearward, move the control levers as necessary so that one lever is forward of the other. The tractor will turn in the direction of the forward control lever. 1. To turn to the left while traveling in reverse, move the left drive control lever forward of the right lever. See Fig. 5-7. Executing a Zero Turn WARNING! When executing a zero turn, the tractor MUST BE STOPPED. Executing a zero turn while the tractor is moving can significantly reduce your control of the tractor and will cause severe turf defacement. 1. Stop the forward or reverse motion of the tractor by moving the two drive control levers to neutral. 2. To turn clockwise, move the left control lever forward while simultaneously moving the right control lever rearward. See Fig. 5-9. Clockwise Zero Turn Rearward Left Turn Figure 5-7 2. To turn to the right while traveling in reverse, move the right drive control lever forward of the left lever. See Fig. 5-8. Figure 5-9 3. To turn counterclockwise, move the right control lever forward while simultaneously moving the left control lever rearward. See Fig. 5-10. Rearward Right Turn Counterclockwise Zero Turn Figure 5-8 3. The greater the distance between the two levers, the sharper the tractor will turn. 4. To execute a "pivot turn," move the turn side drive control lever to the neutral position, while moving the other control lever rearward. NOTE: Making a "pivot turn" on grass will greatly increase the potential for defacement of the turf. Figure 5-10 Section 5 - Operation 19
