USING THE MACHINE
Operating
Be careful when driving on slopes.
The vehicle’s braking characteristics and stability
can be affected by installed accessories or optional
extras. Be particularly careful when driving on
slopes.
Hopper bag height
Set the hopper bag so that its bottom is horizontal
and is 8-10 cm above the ground when driving. See
point 3 under “ASSEMBLY”.
Brush height setting
Set the brushes to the correct height by undoing the
locking wheel and then moving the arm up or
down, see fig. 19. If the arm is moved down, the
brushes are raised. The best results are obtained if
the brushes sweep the top of the grass without
touching the soil below. The brushes must not be
lowered so much that the collector’s wheels slide
or slip.
Speed
Test which speed produces the best results.
The speed should be selected so that the grass is
thrown to the rear part of the hopper bag.
Recommended speed: 4.8 - 6.4 km/h.
