Driving
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 Press in the lock button on the mechanical lifting lever and
lower the cutting unit.
If the cutting unit does not lower completely, or if the
blades do not rotate, lower the cutting unit completely
using the hydraulic lifting lever. In order to ensure that the
hydraulic cylinder is in the outer position, hold the lever in
the forward position for a half to one second.
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 / 8.5 PSI, to produce an even cutting height.
Braking
Release the drive pedals. The machine slows and is stopped
by the drive system. Do not use the parking brake as the drive
brake.
Quicker braking is possible if you press down the drive pedal
for the opposite direction.

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.
