Chapter 4: Control commands and instruments
Section 2 Regulation levers for the handle bar
Before using the flail mower at work, we
advise you regulate the working height
of the handle bar as most convenient
for you and the nature of the terrain
(flat or hilly). To move the handle bar
up or down, use the lever (Fig. 4.7)
positioned at the base of the handle.
Furthermore you can regulate the
handle bar sideways for when you
work close to ditches or banks.
The handle bar has
five positions
:
- at the centre
- to the left
- to the right
Pull the knob upward (Fig. 4.8) to move
the handle bar sideways, then move the
handle bar either completely to the right
or completely to the left. Release the
knob in order to re-lock the handle bar,
making sure it is well fixed.

CAUTION :
When working several hours at a
time, regulate the handle bar in such
a way that your back remains in an
upright position and never under
stress.
CAUTION :
Pay careful attention to avoid
slipping and sliding when working
near canals, embankments and
river banks.
