- Pushing the pedal forward, - the ma-
chine moves forward.
- When there is no load on the pedal - 
the machine is stationary.
- Pushing the pedal back - the ma-
chine moves in reverse.
- By reducing the pressure on the pedal - the 
machine brakes.
There is a plate on the top section of the pedal 
which can be adjusted to suit the driver's foot.
If the machine does not brake as ex-
pected when the pedal is released, use
the left pedal (10: B) as an emergency
brake.
