OPERATION Neutral Position Slower Faster Figure 25 2. As the lapbar drive control levers are pushed farther rearward the speed of the tractor will increase. 3. To slow the tractor move the lapbar drive control levers forward to attain the desired speed or move the lapbar drive control levers to the neutral position to stop the tractor. TURNING WHILE DRIVING REARWARD To turn the tractor while driving rearward, move the lapbar drive control levers as necessary so that one drive control lever is forward of the other. The tractor will turn in the direction of the forward lapbar drive control lever. 1. To turn to the left while traveling in reverse, move the left drive control lever forward of the right drive control lever. See Figure 26. NOTE: The greater the distance between the two lapbar drive control levers, the sharper the tractor will turn. 3. To execute a "pivot turn", move the turn side drive control lever to the neutral position, while moving the other drive control lever rearward. NOTE: Making a "pivot turn" on grass will greatly increase the potential for defacement of the turf. EXECUTING A ZERO TURN 1. Stop the forward or reverse motion of the tractor by moving the two lapbar drive control levers to neutral. 2. To turn clockwise, move the left lapbar drive control lever forward while simultaneously moving the right lapbar drive control lever rearward. See Figure 28. Clockwise Zero Turn Figure 28 3. To turn counter-clockwise, move the lapbar right drive control lever forward while simultaneously moving the left lapbar drive control lever rearward. See Figure 29. Counter-clockwise Zero Turn Rearward Left Turn Figure 26 2. To turn to the right while traveling in reverse, move the right drive control lever forward of the left drive control lever. See Figure 27. Rearward Right Turn Figure 27 Figure 29 STOPPING THE TRACTOR 1. Move both lapbar drive control levers to the neutral position to stop the motion of the tractor. 2. Push the PTO downward to the OFF position. 19

As the lapbar drive control levers are pushed farther rearward
the speed of the tractor will increase.

To slow the tractor move the lapbar drive control levers
forward to attain the desired speed or move the lapbar drive
control levers to the neutral position to stop the tractor.
TURNING WHILE DRIVING REARWARD
To turn the tractor while driving rearward, move the lapbar
drive control levers as necessary so that one drive control lever is
forward of the other. The tractor will turn in the direction of the
forward lapbar drive control lever.

To turn to the right while traveling in reverse, move the right
drive control lever forward of the left drive control lever. See
Figure 27.
Rearward Right Turn

NOTE:
The greater the distance between the two lapbar drive
control levers, the sharper the tractor will turn.
3.
To execute a “pivot turn”, move the turn side drive control
lever to the neutral position, while moving the other drive
control lever rearward.
NOTE:
Making a “pivot turn” on grass will greatly increase the
potential for defacement of the turf.
EXECUTING A ZERO TURN
1.
Stop the forward or reverse motion of the tractor by moving
the two lapbar drive control levers to neutral.
