5.7.2 Travel speed choice
The adjustment of machine travel speed is ruled by similar factors as the adjustment of
cutting height. The main principle dictates that the greater is the sward density or height, the
lower is the machine travel speed. Gears are chosen by gear-shifting lever situated on the left
(as viewed from the operator’s site) on the handlebars crossbar. The shifted gear is indicated
by an arrow on the lever against the adjustment line at the gear number on the scale.

Gears should be shifted only with the machine travel lever released.

Never change the gear when the machine is moving!
