WORK/TRANSPORT MODES

WARNING : PREVENT ACCIDENTS - Ensure that the mode selected is appropriate to the mode of
operation of the machine.
Select 'Work' mode when operating the mower in conditions of poor traction when maximum tractive per-
formance is required. Selecting 'Work' mode will enable the use of the differential lock.
Select 'Transport' mode when operating the mower in conditions of good traction. For example when trav-
elling on the public highway or mowing large, level, open areas. Selecting 'Transport' mode in these condi-
tions will reduce transmission system wear and tear.
Differential lock is not available for use when 'Transport' mode is selected.

cutterdecks to the transport position and secure with the transport
latches and safety locks when travelling between work areas.
