Chapter 4: Control commands and instruments
Section 2 Height and side handlebar control levers
Before using the flail mower at work, we
advise you regulate the working height
of the handle bar as most convenient
for you and the nature of the terrain
(flat or hilly). To move the handle bar
up or down, use the lever (Fig. 4.7)
positioned at the base of the handle.
Furthermore you can regulate the
handle bar sideways for when you
work close to ditches or banks.
The handlebar can take different positions
on the right and left.
To move the handlebar sideways unscrew
the lever (Fig. 4.8), then move the
handlebar either to the right or to the left.
To re-lock the handlebar screw the lever
back on, checking that the base of the
handlebar is correctly inserted.

CAUTION :
When working several hours at a
time, regulate the handle bar in such
a way that your back remains in an
upright position and never under
stress.
CAUTION :
Pay careful attention to avoid
slipping and sliding when working
near canals, embankments and
river banks.
