Driving the Rider
1 Release the parking brake by first pressing down the
parking brake pedal and then releasing it.
2 For Rider 13 C, Rider 16 AWD and Rider 16 C
Carefully press down one of the pedals until the required
speed is obtained. Pedal (1) is used to drive forwards, and
pedal (2) to drive backwards.
3 For Rider 11 R and Rider 11 C
Disengage the engine and select the required gear.
The lock button on the gear shift lever must be held in to
engage reverse gear.
- Gears 1-4 are used for mowing
- Gears 4-5 are used for transporting
Starting can take place independent of which gear is
engaged.
4 Select the required cutting height (1-7) with the cutting
height lever.
It is important that the air pressure in both front wheels is
equal, 60 kPa / 0,6 bar / 8.5 PSI, to produce an even
cutting height.
5 Press in the lock button on the lifting lever and lower the
cutting unit.
IMPORTANT! Gear changes between forward gears must
not be made while the machine is moving.
The engine must be disengaged during each gear change.
Stop the machine before changing between forward and
reverse gears, otherwise this may result in damage to the
gearbox.
Never use force to engage a gear. If a gear does not engage
immediately, release the clutch pedal and press it down
again. Now try to engage the gear again.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The life span of the drive belts is increased significantly if
the engine runs at a low speed when the blades are
engaged. Therefore apply full throttle first when the cutting
unit has been moved to the mowing position.
