• Using the lever on the bottom left-hand side (depth lever) of
the handlebars, the machine can be unlocked from its trans-
port mode. Before squeezing this depth lever, push the hand-
lebar slightly downwards. Once the bar has been loosened,
the handlebars must be released in a controlled manner so
that the blades can be routed into the ground to reach work
depth. The work depth equates to the setting made on the
machine. (read § b; page 40)
Please note: When the depth lever is squeezed, the machine will enter operati-
on mode under the influence of its own weight. If this is not done in a controlled
manner, it will overload the blades, drive belts and engine. Avoid this by using
the handlebars as a lever and thus gently tilting the machine to its operation
mode.
• Before returning the machine to the transport mode, check that the depth lever is not depres-
sed. Push the handlebars down. The housing lift up until the front wheels come off the ground.
At this moment the front wheel holder clicks into the transport mode. Now carefully raise
the handlebars again so that the front wheels are back on the ground. The machine is now in
transport mode.
Please note: When you start sowing and activate the roller drive, the machine
can lift up at the front. As a result, the machine may return to the transport
mode. Therefore, keep the depth lever squeezed closed for a moment to open
the lock. Once the machine is at cruising speed, the depth lever can be released.
