Use the actuation via foot pedal only in
exceptional circumstances because the
mower stops abruptly.
Driving

2. Release the parking brake.
3. Slowly move the drive lever to the
desired driving direction. The further the
lever is moved away from the neutral
position, the faster the mower moves.
4. To stop, move the drive lever slowly to
neutral position or step on the foot brake.
When you actuate the foot brake and switch
on the drive, you can hear an alarm tone.
Differential lock
The differential lock connects the two rear
wheels rigidly to each other. This improves
traction. Actuate the differential lock when a
wheel slips.
Always actuate the differential lock when
moving downhill. This improves the driving
stability of the device. The risk of sliding or
swerving of the rear is reduced and safe
braking is possible.
Driving in curves while the differential lock is
actuated is only possible with limitations.
To avoid excessive wear:
actuate the differential lock only when the
device is stopped, if possible.
always step on the pedal all the way.
release the differential lock when it is no
longer absolutely needed.
Switching off and parking
1. Move the drive lever slowly to neutral
position.
2. Turn the accelerator lever to idle speed.
3. Switch off the blade clutch.
4. Move the lever for the cutting height
adjustment to transport position.
5. Actuate the parking brake.
6. Turn the ignition key to “ignition off”.
7. Wait until the blade comes to a standstill
before you step away from the device.
Warning!
Risk of injury in case of
unauthorised use.
Always remove the ignition key
when you do not use the device.
8. Remove the ignition key.
9. Close both fuel valves.
