must be reduced to ensure safe conditions ( ☛ 1.2 - 5.5).
In any case, the speed should always be lowered if you note a reduction in engi-

being cut will never mow the grass well.
Disengage the blades and put the cutting deck in the highest position whenever
you need to get past an obstacle.

Do not let the grass-catcher become too full as
this may block the collector channel.
When the grass-catcher is full there is an intermit-
tent audible warning. At this point:
– lower the engine speed;
– go into neutral (N) (☛ 4.22 or 4.32) and stop
forward movement;
– engage the parking brake on slopes;
– disengage the blades (☛ 4.9) and the audible
signal will stop;
– pull out the lever (1) and tip up the grass-cat-
cher to empty it;
– close up the grass-catcher so that it hooks
onto the pawl stop (2).
NOTE
engaging the blade even when the grass-catcher has been emptied. This is due
to grass-cuttings left on the sensor of the micro-switch. To stop the signal,
disengage the blade and then immediately engage it again
