A hydrostatic transmission is used on lawn tractors and riding lawn mowers. It is a bit like the automatic transmission on a car but there are no different gears. The transmission responds to the power called for by the operator when he or she opens the throttle. The mechanism of the transmission uses hydraulics to adjust to the different power requirements.
