transmission engaged for normal
operation.
2. Lever in the outer position –
transmission disengaged. The
machine can be moved by hand.
The machine may not be towed over long distances
or at high speeds. The transmission could be dam-
aged.
The machine must not be operated with
the forward most lever in the outer po-

2. Set the seat to the desired position.
3. Release the control lever (8:S) to lock
the seat.
The seat is equipped with a safety switch that is
connected to the machine’s safety system. This
means that certain dangerous activities are not pos-
sible when there is nobody sitting on the seat. Also
see 13.4.2.
11.4.12Engine casing (2:U)

and engine, the machine has an engine
