It is a stepless, fully-automatic transmission, consisting of a V-shaped drive-belt, and two pulleys, each of two cones, whose effective diameter can be changed so that the "V" belt runs nearer the spindle or nearer the rim, depending on the separation of the cones. These are synchronized so that the belt always remains at the same optimal tension.

An internal combustion engine sat atop the reel housing and drove the wheels, usually through a belt. The wheels in turn drove the reel, as in the push mower.
Pushing one lever more than the other causes the mower to make a gentle turn. Pushing one lever forward and pulling the other back pivots the mower about its center by driving its wheels in opposite directions, creating a zero-radius turn. [6] Zero-turn mowers can use steering wheels but must be designed much differently.

Belts may be used as a source of motion, to transmit power efficiently or to track relative movement. Belts are looped over pulleys and may have a twist between the pulleys, and the shafts need not be parallel.
