Operation
Moving without mowing
The machine has not been approved for use on public roads.
It has to be used (as indicated by the highway code) in private areas closed to
traffic.
NOTE
When moving the machine, the blade must be disengaged and the
cutting deck put at its highest position.
Mechanical transmission
Put the accelerator control between the «SLOW» and «FAST» positions and the gear
change lever in the 1st speed position.
Keep the pedal pressed down and disengage the parking brake. Slowly release the pedal
which will turn from «brake» to «clutch», thus operating the rear wheels.
The pedal has to be released gradually as a sudden engagement may cause tipping up
and loss of control of the vehicle.
Gradually reach the desired operating speed using the accelerator and gear lever. To
change the gear speed the clutch must be used pushing the pedal down half way.
Hydrostatic transmission
Put the accelerator control between the «SLOW» and «FAST» positions. Press the
brake pedal to disengage the parking brake and release the pedal.
Press the drive pedal (
22.) in direction «F» and reach the required speed by
progressively increasing pressure on the pedal and moving the accelerator.
