CHAPTER 1
Operation
- The transmitter has two joysticks and a toggle switch. The
right joystick moves the mower in all directions while the left
joystick starts and stops the engine. The toggle switch is for
high or low speed. Use slow gentle movements with the right
joystick and avoid sudden full throttle movements keeping a
finger on the joystick at all times. You do not want to "flick"
the spring loaded joystick.
- The transmitter has a green and red mark on the left
joysitck. Red will stop the engine and green will start the
engine. Avoid starting the engine while the engine is running
by glancing down at your transmitter when starting and
stopping your engine.

- When powering up the system, it is best to always power on
the transmitter first and last when powering the system off so
the transmitter will always be able to communicate with your
mower.
- The transmitter has "trim control" to make small
adjustments to each joystick's "center". Example: If your
mower is pulling to the right when driving straight, adjust the
bottom trim control on the right joystick to the left until it
drives straight.
- The transmitter has "servo reversing". These are set and
configured from the factory to operate your mower properly.
If for some reason these are tampered with, you will need to
set them so the mower does what you tell it to do. The top
two switches relate to the movement control of your mower.
- The transmitter is equipped with "channel mixing". This
allows you to control movement with one joystick instead of
"tank steer" with two joysticks. If you ever replace the
transmitter, holding both joysticks down and out while turning
the new transmitter on will activate channel mixing. It will
give 3 beeps indicating channel mixing is enabled.
- The power switch on the rear of your mower will power on
your mower's electronics. Always remember to turn it off
while not in use.

- The deck height adjustment is a manual design allowing you
to raise and lower the deck from 2-6 inches. Never raise or
lower the deck while the engine is on and always shut the
engine off before approaching your mower.
