HOW TO USE THE MACHINE
Position the throttle between «SLOW» and
«FAST», and the gear lever in 1st gear (
☛
4.22).
Keep the pedal pressed down and release the parking brake. Slowly release the
pedal to shift from “brake” to “clutch”, thus operating the rear wheels (
☛
4.21).
The pedal has to be released gradually, as a sudden
engagement may cause the vehicle to tip over and the driver to lose control.
Gradually reach the desired speed using the throttle and gear lever. To change gear,
press the clutch halfway down (
☛
4.21).
When moving the machine from one area to
another, position the throttle between «SLOW» and «FAST».
Disengage the parking brake and release the brake pedal (
☛
4.31).
Press the drive pedal (
☛
4.32) in direction «F» and reach the required speed by
gradually increasing pressure on the pedal and working the throttle.
Drive must be engaged as described (
☛
4.32) ) to prevent
sudden engagement from causing tipping up and loss of control of the vehicle,
particularly on slopes.
5.4.3 Braking
First reduce the machine’s speed by reducing the engine’s r.p.m., and then press the
brake pedal (
☛
4.21 or 4.31) to slow down the machine until it stops.
The machine already slows down considerably
by just releasing the drive pedal.
