stop, steer and control the travel direction of the unit.

To start, lock unit in neutral by pushing

both Travel-Steering Control Levers

outward -to each side- from centered

(neutral) position (Figure 4).

Straight Forward

Push the Travel-Steering Control Levers

SLOWLY forward the same distance from

the centered (neutral) position. The further

you move the levers, the faster the unit will

travel forward. (Travel-Steering Control

Levers have quick response timing.)

Pull the Travel-Steering Control Levers

back the same distance from the centered

(neutral) position. The further you move the

levers, the faster the unit will travel in

reverse.

the other backward. Pushing the lever forward from the

centered position moves the unit forward on that side;

pulling the lever back from the centered position moves

the unit backward on that side.
