13. CUTTING TIPS
1. Before commencing cutting operations, read the safety instructions given in the previous
sections.
2. Before engaging flail movement using the relative lever ( Figure 1 Ref. D) the guard
(Fig. 1 Ref. H) must be fully lowered to prevent the outward projection of objects.
3. At first the setting of a relatively high cutting height is recommended (using the relative
lever in Figure 1 Ref. I), lowering it gradually according to working conditions.
4. Engage the flail clutch (Fig. 1 Ref. D) only after having carried out the machine switch-on
and gear engagement operations and selected the required speed (see
“ SWITCHING
ON
” section)
5. Before engaging the flail clutch (Fig. 1 Ref. D), gradually move the accelerator (Fig. 1
Ref. B) until the required speed is reached.
6. Engage the flail clutch (Fig. 1 Ref. D) gradually. Overly brusque flail clutch engagement
may stall the engine.
WARNING
Take great care because the flails rotate at very high speed.
7. Maintaining flail rotation while in reverse gear is not advisable. In fact, although the machine
is able to work in reverse gear, the risk of the outward projection of objects is increased
considerably. The risk of the operator falling also increases considerably.
