4356-VOLT LITHIUM-ION ELECTRIC ZERO TURN MOWER — ZT4200S/ZT4200S-FC
WARNING: Do not stop the mower on a slope. Always stop the mower on a flat, level surface and never leave the
mower unattended with the safety key inserted, even just for a brief period. Leaving the safety key inserted may allow
unauthorized use that could result in serious personal injury.
WARNING: When the mower stops driving on a slope and the operator is off the seat without setting the parking-
brake pedal at the braking position, the audio indicator will continue to beep intermittently to remind the operator to set
the parking-brake for safe mower stopping on the slope. Always set the parking-brake pedal at the braking position when
leaving the seat. Otherwise, when the battery power is depleted, the mower will slide down the slope, which may
cause serious mower damage or personal injury!
DRIVING THE ELECTRIC ZERO TURN MOWER (Fig. 18)
After starting the mower, engage the steering wheel as follows:
◾
To drive straight forward, hold the steering wheel straight with no rotation. Control the driving speed with the
accelerator pedal.
◾
To drive in reverse, pull and hold the left or right, or both paddles towards the operator, and hold the steering wheel
straight with no rotation. Control the driving speed with the accelerator pedal.
NOTE: When pulling left/right paddle towards the operator WHILE driving forward, the mower will decrease its speed
to zero and then shift in reverse. The “R” icon will illuminate on the LCD screen and a beep will sound once.
NOTE: When the accelerator pedal is released the mower will not continue to coast like a typical gas-powered car.
Instead, the electric brake will be applied and the mower will stop abruptly.
◾
To turn left, rotate the steering wheel to the left.
◾
To turn right, rotate the steering wheel to the right.
◾
To execute a zero-radius turn, slow down first and then rotate the steering wheel all the way to the right or left.
NOTICE: Rapid movement of steering wheel is not recommended as damage to the electric components of the mower
may occur.
NOTICE: Aggressive turning can scuff or damage lawns. Perform zero turns at low driving speed.
◾
To stop or decrease speed, release the accelerator pedal slowly.
◾
To increase speed, depress the accelerator pedal all the way. The farther the accelerator pedal is depressed, the
faster the mower will travel.
DANGER
: Stay at least two mowing widths (7 ft /2.13 m) away from any ditches, drop-offs, or water. Front wheels
can rotate when the mower is stopped, even with the brake applied, and cause the mower to go over the edge or into the
water and result in death or serious personal injury.
WARNING: Be aware of what is behind the mower before backing up. DO NOT mow in reverse unless absolutely
necessary. Always look down and behind before and while backing to make sure no children, bystanders, or pets enter
the mowing area. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict death or serious injury.
WARNING: Be certain you have correctly set your intended direction of driving with the steering wheel before
depressing the accelerator pedal. Failure to do so could result in you driving the mower in an unintended direction, which
could cause loss of control or an accident.
