Released . Traction is engaged.
The parking brake is not
activated.
Pressed right down . Forward
drive disengaged. The parking
brake is fully activated but not
locked. This poasition is also
used as an emergency brake.
6 .4 PARKING BRAKE LOCKING LEVER
(13:B)
The lever locks the “clutch-brake” pedal in
the pressed right down position. This fun-
ction is used to lock the machine on slopes,
during transport, etc., when the engine is
not running.
Locking:
1. Press the pedal (13:A) right down.
2. Pull the lever (13:B) up.
3. Release the pedal (13:A).
4. Release the lever (13:B).
Unlocking:
Press and release the pedal (13:A).
6 .5 TRACTION PEDAL (13:C)
The pedal determines the gearing ratio between
the engine and the drive wheels (= the speed).
When the pedal is released, the service brake is
activated.
- Press the pedal forward – the
machine moves forward.
- No load on the pedal – the ma-
chine is stationary.
- Press the pedal backward – the
machine reverses.
Reduce the pressure on the pedal – the machi-
ne brakes.
If the machine does not brake as ex-
pected when the pedal is released, use
the left pedal (13:A) as an emergency
brake .
6 .6 STEERING WHEEL (13:E)
The height of the steering wheel is fully adjustable.
Unscrew the adjustment knob (12:E) on the stee-
ring column and raise or lower the steering wheel
accordingly. Tighten.
Do not adjust the steering wheel when
the machine is running .
Never turn the steering wheel when the
machine is stationary with a lowered ac-
cessory . There is a risk of abnormal loads
on the servo and steering mechanisms .
6 .7 THROTTLE CONTROL (ACCELERATOR)
(14:A)
Control for regulating engine running speed.
1 . Full throttle – should always be used
when the machine is in use.
2 . Idling .
6 .8 CHOKE CONTROL (14:B)
Used to turn on the engine when cold. The choke
control has two positions:
1 . Control completely pulled out - choke
engaged . (for machine start in cold condi-
tions) .
2 . Control pushed in - choke disenga-
ged . (normal operation and warm start) .
Do not use the choke when the engine
is warm .
6 .9 KEY SWITCH (14:C)
Key for enabling/inhibiting machine
start-up .
Insert the key (14:C) and turn it to the “I”
(START) position to enable machine start-
up. All the indicators on the display and the
acoustic signalling device are momentarily
activated. Only the “hour meter” will remain
active on the display together with the oil le-
vel warning light (which automatically turns
itself off once the engine starts) and the
parking brake indicator (if the parking brake
is on) and the seat warning light if the driver
is not seated.
Turn the key to the “O” position to inhibit ma-
chine start-up.
The key can only be removed when it is
in the “O” position.
If the operator moves away from the
machine and the key is in the “I” po -
sition, after 30 seconds a continuous
acoustic warning sound is emitted . The
acoustic warning signal persists until
the operator returns to the machine or
the machine is switched off.
