Starting of the cutting blade is accompanied with a partial V-belt slippage and with the
accompanying phenomena such as whistling, rattling, etc. The phenomenon usually
disappears after the belt has started properly moving.
4. After the cutting blade starts turning, press the lever completely to the handrail and hold it
firm.
If the blade drive is switched on during cutting again, engine stalling may occur due to
resistance of grass biomass in the space of blade cover. This space must be – if possible – always
properly emptied when starting the blade drive (
see Chapter 6.6.4
).
Note:
In a new or cold engine, a few of the blade drive starts may result in engine stalling.
The phenomenon will disappear after the engine warms up. If the blade drive cannot be started
even after the engine has got warm, follow the table presented in Chapter
7.6
for diagnostics.
5.4 Machine travel.
Machine travel is controlled by the lever on the left grip of the handlebars. Press the
lever completely down to the grip and the machine will start moving forward. Start walking
simultaneously with the lever pressing and machine start, adapting your walk pace to the
speed of the machine.
Be prepared when the machine starts moving with a little jerk.
Note:
All four main positions of the accelerator lever are arrested by means of a simple
system (dent/rib) in the lever body.
