• To move the machine forwards in a straight line (forwards or backwards): turn-twist both
control handles at the same time. Moving both control handles forwards will cause the
machine to move forwards; turning-twisting them backwards will cause the machine to move
backwards.
Caution: If you do not turn-twist both control handles by the same amount, the
machine will not move in a straight line.
• To turn to the right: the machine will turn to the right
if you twist more the left handle (1) . The greater the
difference between the control handles, the more the
machine will turn.
• To turn to the left: the machine will turn to the left if
you twist more the right handle (2) . the greater the
difference between the controls the more the machine
will turn.
• To turn the machine on the spot: bring throttle lever
to the minimum (tortoise) and turn-twist each handle
in opposite directions. This may cause the machine to
change directions very suddenly.
MIND YOUR FEET!
The operator must always stay alert and move the control handles carefully.
If you feel like you are losing control of the machine, immediately let go of the two handles and
move away from the machine.
Warning: If you fall, immediately let go of the handles to avoid moving them
unintentionally and incurring the risk of the machine falling onto you.
Warning: The machine can change direction suddenly. Ensure that you have
enough space to manoeuvre before moving into a tight space. You can always
pull back on the throttle lever to decrease the engine speed.
Warning: The more you twist the handle the faster the machine will move. The
more you increase the engine RPM the faster the machine will move.
