Reverse Travel Practice
9
LOOK DOWN & BEHIND, then gradually move both ground
speed control levers evenly BACK from neutral. Slow down
and repeat.
NOTE: Practice backing up for several minutes before
attempting to do so near objects. The rider turns sharply in
reverse as well as forward, and backing up straight takes
practice.
Practice Turning Around A Corner
10
While traveling forward allow one handle to gradually return
back toward neutral. Repeat several times.
NOTE: To prevent pivoting directly on the tire tread, it is best
to keep both wheels going at least slightly forward.
Practice Turning in Place
11
To turn in place, "Zero Turn," gradually move one ground
speed control lever forward from neutral and one lever back
from neutral simultaneously. Repeat several times.
NOTE: Changing the amount each lever is pulled—forward or
back, changes the "pivot point" you turn on.
Advanced Driving
Executing an End-Of-Row Zero Turn
12
Your Zero Turn Rider's unique ability to turn in place allows
you to turn around at the end of a cutting row rather than
having to stop and Y-turn before starting a new row.
For example, to execute a left end-of row zero turn:
1. Slow down at the end of the row.
2. Move the RIGHT ground speed control lever forward
slightly while moving the LEFT ground speed control lever
back to center and then slightly back from center.
3. Begin mowing forward again.
This technique turns the rider LEFT and slightly overlaps
the row just cut —eliminating the need to back up and re-cut
missed grass.
