Operation
– bring the cutting-means assembly to the highest position (position «7»);
– put the accelerator control between the «SLOW» and «FAST» positions.
Mechanical transmission
Push the pedal down as far as possible (
page 22, n. 11) and move the gear change
lever into 1st gear (
page 22, n. 12).
Keep the pedal pressed down and disengage the parking brake (
page 20, n. 2).
Slowly release the pedal which will turn from «brake» to «clutch», thus operating the
rear wheels.
WARNING!
The pedal has to be released gradually, as a sudden engage-
ment may cause the vehicle to tip over and the driver to lose control.
Gradually reach the desired speed using the throttle and gear lever. To change gear,
press the clutch halfway down (
page 22, n. 11).
Hydrostatic transmission:
Disengage the parking brake and release the brake pedal (
page 22, n. 21).
Press the drive pedal (
page 22, n. 22) in direction «F» and reach the required
speed by progressively increasing pressure on the pedal and moving the accelerator.
WARNING!
Drive must be engaged as described below (
page 22, n. 22)
to prevent sudden engagement from causing tipping up and loss of control of the
vehicle, particularly on slopes.
Braking
Mechanical transmission
To use the brake, press the brake pedal to the floor (
page 22, n. 11), after reducing
speed using the accelerator so as not to overload the braking system.
Hydrostatic transmission:
First reduce the machine’s speed by reducing the engine’s r.p.m., and then press the
brake pedal (
page 22, n. 21) to slow down the machine until it stops.
The machine already slows down considerably by just releasing the drive pedal.
Reverse
IMPORTANT
Reverse must only be engaged when the machine has stopped.
IMPORTANT
To proceed in reverse gear with the cutting means engaged, it is necessary
to press and hold the consent pedal down (see 4.7) so as not to cause the engine to stop.
