This step-by-step repair guide gives instructions for adjusting a zero-turn riding mower’s neutral control. If your zero-turn riding mower creeps forward or backward when both lap bars are in the neutral position, adjust the neutral control following the instruction in this repair guide. See all our riding mower and lawn tractor DIY repair guides for more step-by-step instructions.
