To steer the machine, the thumb operated steer control switch on the
controller handle is positioned to the right for traveling right, or to the left for
traveling left. When released, the switch will return to the center-off position
and the wheels will remain in the previously selected position. To return the
wheels to the straightened position, the switch must be activated in the
opposite direction until the wheels are centered.
