High and low speed catches (P 525D)
1 Low speed catch
2 Full speed catch
3 Forward pedal
The forward pedal has a catch that can be foot operated.
Maximum speed is obtained with the catch in high-speed
position (2). Recommended for transport operation.

back, which will engage limited speed on the machine (1).
Low-speed mode is preferred for best ergonomics when
working at low speed, mowing for example.
