5.6 DRIVING THE MOWER
DRIVING FORWARD / REVERSING
RULES FOR DRIVING THE MOWER
- The parking brake must be disengaged, i.e. the control draw bar must be in the lower position. Release the
parking brake by pushing on the brake pedal. If you push down on the travel pedal while the brake is engaged,
a sound signal is made and a warning triangle and brake symbol will appear on the display. This also applies
conversely while driving – when the travel pedal is pushed while the brake pedal is also pushed down at the
same time, an acoustic signal will be made. The acoustic signal serves as protection for the hydraulic drive
and brakes against damage.
- The bypass bolt must be pulled tight (
- When travelling to the mowing location, the mowing deck must be turned off. The turned off mowing deck is
located in the transport (highest) position and thus enables the mower to travel without risking impact of the
mowing deck with obstacles.
ATTENTION: When travelling over obstacles higher than 8 cm (kerbs, etc.) you must use ramps to
avoid damaging the mowing deck and other parts of the mower.
- Avoid hard impacts of the front wheels against rigid obstacles, this may result in damage to the front axle,
particularly when the mower is travelling at a high speed.
ACCELERATING
Set the throttle lever to the required engine speed.
ƒ
Slowly push down on the travel pedal forward or backwards depending on the required travel speed.
ƒ
ATTENTION: Risk of injury if the pedal is pushed down quickly!
CHANGING TRAVEL DIRECTION FORWARD/REVERSE
Before changing the travel direction, first stop the mower by releasing the respective pedal.
ƒ
Push down the required pedal (forward or reverse).
ƒ
If you do not stop the mower before changing the travel direction, there is a risk of damaging the
travelling gear.
Never use the travel pedal and the brake pedal at the same time – this may result in a malfunction of
the travelling gear.
TURNING
The mower is equipped with power steering (servodrive), which significantly reduces the force needed to
ƒ
control the steering wheel. Power steering is only active when the engine is running.
ATTENTION: Easier control and the steering wheel ball enable rapid changes in the travel direction.
Before turning, always adjust your travel speed.
LEAVING THE MOWER WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING
If you want or need to leave the mower for a while, e.g. in order to remove obstacles, etc. and you intend to
then continue mowing, it is possible to get off and leave the engine running. This saves the mower's battery.
Conditions for getting off the mower with the engine running:
- the mowing deck is disengaged;
- the throttle control lever is the MIN position;
- the parking brake is engaged
