Hayter Mowers 433D Lawn Mower User Manual


 
To make a wide turn steer the mower with the handlebar in the direc-
tion required.
To make a tight turn (release the ground drive clutch lever, Autodrive
model), apply downward pressure on the handlebar to raise the front
wheels just above ground level and steer in the required direction.
To prevent accidents do not raise the front of the mower exces-
sively when making a turn. Never raise the rear of the mower
when the engine is running.
Release the engine stop lever and ground drive clutch lever on auto drive
models and push the throttle control lever to the ‘slow’ position.
Emergency stop - If the engine fails to stop, disconnect the spark
plug lead.
To prevent engine damage do not use the mower on slopes greater
than 20 degrees.
Move the height of cut lever sideways to disengage it from the locking
notch, then push forwards to raise or pull backwards to lower the height
of cut. Release the lever in the required position and ensure that it locks
firmly into one of the eight notch settings.
Always select a height of cut to suit operating conditions. Prevent
engine overloading and blockages by avoiding low cuts in long grass
conditions. Be prepared to make two cuts when the grass is long.
