5.2.1 EMERGENCY TRAVEL SYSTEM
The mower is equipped with a special emergency travel system that makes it possible to start the engine in an emergency and drive
the mower back in the event of some kind of malfunction of the mower's electrical system that prevents the mower from being started
after meeting all the starting conditions, see above.
Procedure for activating the emergency travel system:
sit on the seat
push down the brake pedal
set the key in the switch box to position "ignition on" (electrical circuits connected)
Press the R button 5 times
Subsequently, it is possible to start the mower and to drive to a location for transport to a service centre. It is not possible to engage
the mowing deck when in the emergency travel mode!

TURNING OFF THE ENGINE

a) Move the throttle lever to position "MIN".
b) If the mowing deck is activated, deactivate it by pushing down the switch.
c) Turn off the engine by moving the key to position "STOP" and take the key out of the ignition.
If the engine is overheated, allow it to run for a while at minimum speed.
Never stop the engine by merely getting off the seat, while leaving the key in the ignition in the position "ON" as this
may result in an electrical defect.
Always turn the key to the "OFF" position and remove it from the ignition. This will prevent an undesirable start
up of the mower by an unauthorised person or children.
Before turning off the ignition, lower the engine speed to slow for the event of self-ignition. Not following this
instruction may result in damage to the engine and exhaust.
Never disconnect the battery cables while the engine is running! This could damage the engine regulator.
5.3.1 LEAVING THE MACHINE 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 in position "MIN"
the gear is in neutral and the hand brake is activated (the brake indicator light is on)

ENGAGING AND DISENGAGING THE MOWING DECK
5.4.1 ENGAGING THE MOWING DECK
