by depressing either one or both of the Operator
Presence Levers above the handle grips. Releasing
both Operators Presence Levers while mowing or

the engine and mower to stop. The mower will not stop

Maintenance chart
The steering system of this mower uses indvidual right
and left traction levers on the handle bars. Squeezing
the traction lever will reduce tension on the wheel drive
belt eliminating power to that wheel. With the opposite
wheel still under power a turn is accomplished. If the
traction lever is squeezed even tighter the brake will be
applied to that wheel and a tighter more abrupt turn is
accomplished. LEARN HOW TO USE THESE
IMPORTANT STEERING/BRAKE CONTROLS!
