Drive The Machine - Cramer 82ZT107 Bedienungsanleitung

Steering control levers will spring back towards neutral position if you release them, but you still need to control
them manually to reach neutral position.

4.2.2 DRIVE THE MACHINE

After starting the traction drive system, engage the steering control levers and steer as follows:
Always be aware of what is behind the machine before backing up. Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary. Always look down and behind before and while backing up.
Rapid movement of steering control levers is not recommended as damage to the electrical system components
may occur.
• To go forward, push steering control levers forward an equal distance.
• To go in reverse, pull steering control levers rearward an equal distance.
• To turn left, move the right steering control lever farther forward from neutral than the left steering control lever.
• To turn right, move the left steering control lever farther forward from neutral than the right steering control lever.
• To execute a zero-radius turn, move one steering control lever forward and the other steering control lever
rearward. This will allow the drive wheels to counter-rotate.
• To stop or decrease speed, move steering control levers to neutral. When going forward, pull back gently on
steering control levers. When going in reverse, push forward gently on steering control levers.
• For an emergency stop, there are two methods that can be used:
• When traveling forward or in reverse, place the steering control levers in the park brake position immediately.
When moving in the rearward direction, push forward gently on steering control levers and avoid sudden
movement. Any sudden movement could cause the front of the mower to come off of the ground, resulting in
possible loss of control, thereby causing serious injury or death.
• Turn the start key to OFF position. This will shut down the traction drive system and the deck drive system.
• To make a three-point turn to the right, move the left steering control lever farther forward from neutral than
the right steering control lever and start the turn. Next, pull back on the steering control levers until they are past
neutral and the machine starts to go rearward. Pull the right steering control lever farther rearward from neutral
than the left steering control lever until the rear of the machine has pivoted around. Then, push the steering
control levers forward until they are both past neutral and the machine starts to go forward. Push the left steering
control lever farther forward from neutral than the right steering control lever and finish the turn.
• To increase speed, increase steering control lever's distance from neutral. The farther forward steering control
levers are from neutral, the faster the machine will travel forward. The farther back steering control levers are
from neutral, the faster the machine will go in reverse.
