Braking System
Parking Brake: The hydrostatic axle unit incorpo-
rates an integral parking brake. This is operated by
the forward right hand lever. To operate the parking
brake, depress the lever until the spring loaded
locking catch automatically engages. To release the
parking brake, depress the lever until the locking
catch becomes free and then move it out of engage-
ment, release the brake lever.
Service Brakes: Service braking is achieved by
the hydrostatic transmission system. When the
forward and reverse travel controls are released or
the engine speed is reduced, service braking occurs
to reduce the travel speed.
WARNING: PREVENT ACCIDENTS - The
service braking system will not hold the mower
at a standstill. ALWAYS ensure that the park-
ing brake is engaged to park the mower at a
standstill.
Throttle Control
Operate the throttle control forwards to in-
crease the engine speed.
Operate the throttle control backwards to re-
duce engine speed.
Note: The engine speed dictates the speed of the
other functions, i.e. travel and cutterhead.
Travel
The forward and reverse travel rocker levers are
duplicated on each handlebar. These are mechani-
cally linked and activation of either will achieve
the desired function. The control levers are spring
centred and will automatically take up the ‘neutral’
position when deactivated.
