7.5.3
Driving and mowing on slopes
WARNING!
Danger due to mistakes when driving
on slopes!
Be particularly careful when driving on
slopes! There is no such thing as a
"safe" slope.
In particular, comply with the following
safety instructions here!
Disengage the mower mechanism and
add-on devices if the wheels spin or the
vehicle stalls when driving on a slope.
Then drive away down the slope slowly,
straight along the fall line!
The weight of a full grass catcher in-
creases the risk of the lawn tractor tip-
ping over!
■
Do not drive on gradients of more than 10°
(18%). Example: This corresponds to a
change of 18 cm in height over a distance of
1 metre.
■
Drive smoothly.
■
Do not brake suddenly.
■
Keep the driving speed low.
■
Do not drive across the slope.
■
Do not accelerate suddenly.
■
Steer smoothly.

Mowing with the lawn tractor
Adapt the driving speed to the conditions of the
lawn in order to achieve a tidy mowing result. Se-
lect at most two thirds of the possible driving
speed at the pedal when mowing. The maximum
speed of the tractor is exclusively intended for
driving without the mower mechanism switched
on.
Normally, the cutting height is 4 - 5 cm. This cor-
responds to the 2nd or 3rd detent of the height
adjustment (04/1). Mow with a higher cutting
height if the grass is moist or wet.
If the grass is very long, it is a good idea to mow
in two passes. Set the mower mechanism to the
maximum cutting height on the first pass. You
can reduce it to the required height for the sec-
ond pass.

7.5.4.1
Switching on the mower mechanism
NOTE
Do not switch on the mower mechanism
until the engine has been running for
about one minute to warm up!
The lawnmower should not be standing
in tall grass when the mower mechanism
is engaged.
1. Start the engine.
2. Move the engine speed controller (01/2) to
the operating position.
3. Use the hand lever (04/1) to set the mower
mechanism to the highest cutting height.
4. Engage the mower mechanism using the tog-
gle switch (04/2) (position "I").
5. Use the hand lever (04/1) to set the mower
mechanism to the desired cutting height.
6. Set the lawn tractor in motion.
7.5.4.2
Mowing in reverse
NOTE
The mower mechanism is switched off if
just the reverse transmission pedal is
pressed.
1. Press the "Reverse mowing" button (01/4)
and, within 5 seconds, press the pedal for re-
verse driving (02/2).
WARNING!
There is an accident risk when re-
verse mowing!
Pay attention to the area behind you
when mowing in reverse!
Only mow in reverse when it is neces-
sary to do so!
7.5.4.3
Switching off the mower mechanism
WARNING!
Danger due to spinning blades!
When the cutting blades are still spin-
ning, they can cause laceration injuries
to hands and feet! As a result, keep your
hands and feet away from the cutters!
1. Engage the mower mechanism using the tog-
gle switch (position "0") as of (04/2).
The mower mechanism can be switched off when
the tractor is at a standstill and when it is being
driven.
