Driving
Before starting
• Read the safety instructions and information concerning
the placement of controls and functions before starting.
• Perform daily maintenance before starting as set out in
the Maintenance schedule.
• Localise and mark stones and other fixed objects to avoid
collision.
• Avoid mowing a wet lawn. The mowing results will then be
poorer.
• 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 Mower 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.
• When the BioClip function is used, it is very important that
the mowing interval is not too long.
• Hose down the cutting unit with water underneath each
time it is used, avoid using a high pressure washer. The
cutting unit should then be put in the service position.
Start the engine
1 Make sure that the clutch control is depressed. Rider 320
AWD has one control for the front axle and one control for
the rear axle.
2 Lift up the cutting unit by pulling the lever backwards to
locked position (transport position) and apply the parking
brake.
3 The engine can not be started if the parking brake is not
pressed down.
Starting a cold engine
4 Move the throttle to position 3 (choke position). In this
position the engine is fed with a richer mixture, which
means the engine is easier to start.
Starting a warm engine
Move the throttle in between positions 1 and 2.
5 Turn the ignition key to the start position.
6 When the engine starts release the ignition key
immediately back to neutral position.
7 Push the throttle control to full throttle position. Let the
engine run at moderate speed or half throttle for 3-5
minutes before subjecting it to heavy load.
8 Set the required engine speed with the throttle control.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The air intake grille in the engine cover behind the driver’s
seat must not be blocked by, for example, clothing, leaves,
grass or dirt. Impaired cooling of the engine.
Risk of major engine damage.
!
WARNING! Do not modify the machine’s
safety devices and check regularly that they
are working properly.
