IMPORTANT! Gear changes between forward gears must
not be made while the machine is moving.
The engine must be disengaged during each gear change.
Stop the machine before changing between forward and
reverse gears, otherwise this may result in damage to the
gearbox.
Never use force to engage a gear. If a gear does not engage
immediately, release the clutch pedal and press it down
again. Now try to engage the gear again.

4 Select the required cutting height (1-5) using the cutting
height lever.
In order to obtain an even cutting height, it is important
that the air pressure is the same in both front wheels. See
the "Technical data" section.
5 Lower the cutting unit.
6 Start the blades by first releasing the lever and then
moving it forward.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The life span of the drive belts is increased significantly if
the engine runs at a low speed when the blades are
engaged. Therefore apply full throttle first when the cutting
unit has been moved to the mowing position.
