The Lastec Mower is equipped with two hydrostatic pumps, one operating each rear drive
wheel. These pumps are controlled with the foot pedal and the steering wheel.
Verify that all safety covers are in place and secure before operating the Lastec Mower.
Buckle the seatbelt.
Always wear the seatbelt when operating the Lastec Mower.

Start the engine in accordance with section 4.1 of this manual.
Pressing a foot pedal forward activates the hydrostatic pumps turning the drive wheel for-
ward. Pressing a foot pedal backward activates the hydrostatic pumps turning the drive
wheel backward. The foot pedal also governs the ground speed of the Lastec Mower. The
farther from the neutral position the foot pedal is pushed, the faster the drive wheels turn.
Always use the foot pedal to regulate ground speed - NOT the throttle control.
The steering wheel controls the direction in which the mower is moving. Turn the steering
wheel clockwise to move the mower to the right. Turn the steering wheel counterclock-
wise to move the mower to the left.
