10.8 DRIVING THE MACHINE
The machine movement is controlled by joystick
(7) (forward and reverse) (see the symbol under
the controller on the remote radio controller) and
by joystick (8) (Left/ right). By combining these
two controls you will be able to control the
machine.
When these joysticks are moved, the machine
either accelerates or steers.
NOTICE:
Accelerate slowly so as to be able to
react to the direction in which the
mower starts to move. The V shaped
tread pattern on the tyres denotes the direction
the machine will move when forwards motion is
selected.
When driving, slowly move the joystick in the
desired forward or reverse
When changing the forward motion to reverse
motion, always leave the joystick for a short
moment in the neutral positron.
When driving the mower, always set the
maximum engine speed. Driving with any
lower engine speed is prohibited.

10.9 DRIVING SPEED OF THE MOWER
Always choose a suitable driving speed, which
enables an acceptable mowing quality. When
selecting speed, always start with slow and
proceed to fast, not the other way around. If the
growth is thin, you may mow at higher speed.
To control the driving speed you can also use the
driving speed controller (2), which let's you choose
between high (rabbit) and low (turtle) driving
speeds. When starting to operate, always use the
low (turtle) speed range. Also choose the low
speed range when mowing either slopes steeper
than 20 degrees or an uneven terrain.
Never reduce the driving speed by
reducing the engine speed!!! Always
use joystick (7) to reduce the speed.
Higher speed range:
Lower speed range:
IT IS PROHIBITED to drive on slopes
steeped than 20 degrees with the mowing
device engaged and the controller switched to
the high-speed (rabbit) position.
IT IS PROHIBITED to switch to the high-
speed position while mowing. Stop the
machine before selecting a different speed
range.
