• The movement of the cutter is limited if this function is used. Be aware of this!

Starting the cutter
The moveable cutter head is powered by a joint transmission. This offers the significant ad-
vantage that the cutter head can quickly be taken apart for maintenance. In addition, other
attachments can be mounted and powered on the multi-functional support system.
The cutter is started by pressing the black lever on the right
hand side of the handlebar.
When operating the dead man’s handle, the black lever will
remain in position. As a result, the user is able to operate the
machine using the central joystick on the console with his
right hand. When the dead man’s handle is released, the drive motion and the cutter stop.
Caution:
When working with the Snowbob, the operator should always stay in position
while the cutter head is turning. Contact with the cutter head when moving could
lead to severe injuries.
