Operation of the self-propelled implement
The presetting of the speed and the preselection of the direction of travel may only be
carried out when the single-axle system is at a standstill, by operating the lower lever
(Fig.7.1) Respectively!
•
The throttle lever (Fig.7.1, item 6) influences the engine speed and thus also the driving
speed. Always try to drive with the lowest speed required, this protects material and the
environment.
•
The PTO is switched to "on" or "off" with the lever (fig.7.1; pos.3). This lever engages
automatically.
7.3 Parking the internal combustion engine
•
Before switching off the combustion engine, make sure that the drive lever (Fig.7.1, item 5) in
the recess of the shift gate and the lever for the PTO (Fig.7.1, item 3) in the "off" position are
located.
•
Move the throttle lever (Fig.7.1, item 6) to neutral and allow the engine to idle for approximately
one-half minute.
•
Set the engine off switch located on the internal combustion engine to "0".
•
Close the fuel tap
•
Secure the tow tractor against unauthorized use and, if necessary, remove the ignition key.
•
When leaving, secure the device against rolling away, by using wheel chocks or, if necessary,
by applying the parking brake
Tip
:
In case of prolonged downtime, do not stop the engine with the engine off switch, but close the
fuel cock and let the engine run until it comes to a standstill by itself. Thus, the carburetor is
empty, and no gumming can occur.
This procedure must not be used in confined spaces, otherwise it exists
Choking hazard. Basically, pay attention to adequate ventilation!
7.4 Height and inclination angle adjustment of the hand rail
•
In order to ensure the operator an ergonomically optimal working height, the height of the
handrails (Fig.7.2, item 1) can be adjusted at two different points.
