Driving the Rider
1 Release the parking brake by first pressing down the
parking brake pedal and then releasing it.
2 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 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.
4 Press in the lock button on the lifting lever and lower the
cutting unit.
Cutting tips
Localise and mark stones and other fixed objects to avoid
collision.
Start with a high cutting height and reduce down until the
required mowing results are obtained.
The mowing result will be best with the highest permitted
engine speed, see technical data, (the blades rotate
rapidly) and low speed (the Rider moves slowly). If the
grass is not too high and thick, the driving speed can be
increased without noticeably depreciating the mowing
result.
The best lawns are achieved if the grass is cut often.
Mowing becomes more uniform and the grass cuttings
become more evenly distributed over the surface. The
total time consumption is not greater since it is possible to
select a higher driving speed without inferior mowing
results.
Avoid mowing a wet lawn. The mowing results are inferior
since the wheels sink down into the soft lawn.
Hose down the cutting unit with water underneath each
time it is used. The cutting unit should then be put in the
service position.
When the BioClip function is used, it is very important that
the mowing interval is not too long.
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.
