5.4.3 SETTING THE HEIGHT OF THE MOWING MECHANISM

If you want to set the mowing mechanism higher from the ground, move its
lever upward.

If you want to set the mowing mechanism closer to the ground, move its lever
downward.
- Position “1” is used for duplicating uneven terrain. Do not use this height setting permanently,
because it will wear out the mowing mechanism’s parts faster.
If you wish to lower or increase the control force for lifting the mowing deck, it is necessary to adjust
the draw bars, which determine the height of the mowing deck. Proceed as follows:

Take off the mowing deck cover ( 6.3.7 and 6.3.7b) on both sides of the machine.

The draw bars of the mowing deck elevation lever are pushed through the sheaths in the
frame and secured in place using two nuts.

Turn the nuts to set the desired control force. Set the same value on both sides of the
machine.

5.4.4 BALANCING THE MOWING MECHANISM
For best mowing results, the mowing mechanism must be set to the correct height. The adjustment
process is explained in chapter “6.3.7 MOWING MECHANISM - INSPECTION AND ALIGNMENT” of this
manual.
5.5 DRIVING THE MACHINE
General warning before driving:

Make sure the parking brake is disengaged. The parking brake lever must not remain in position “2”
( 4.2). The parking brake automatically releases when the service brake pedal is pressed.

The bypass lever must be set to position “1”, i.e., the bypass must be turned off.

When driving toward the mowing area, the mowing mechanism must be turned off and set to
the highest position, i.e., the mowing mechanism’s height adjustment lever must be in position “7”.

When driving over an obstacle more than 8 cm high (curbs, etc.), ramps must be used to prevent
damage to the mowing mechanism and transmission.

Avoid colliding the front wheels hard with solid obstacles. This can damage the front axles,
especially at high speeds.
5.5.1 DRIVING FORWARD/BACKWARD

Slowly move the accelerator lever to “MIN” position. This reduces engine RPM.

Slowly depress the accelerator pedal according to the desired driving direction (forward or reverse).
Caution! Pressing the pedal quickly can cause an accident!
- A forward/backward change in direction is possible only after the machine has
stopped. Not stopping the machine can damage the transmission.
- Never use the accelerator pedal and the brake pedal at the same time. This can
damage the transmission.
