Safety warnings:
- It is always necessary that the operator stays focused in any travel or work condition. Even during simple
transfers, there is always the risk of injuring people or animals, or damaging objects/property.
- Pay attention to obstacles while moving forward, and especially when moving in reverse or steering.
- It is forbidden to drive while standing, or to transport people, objects or animals.
- Pay attention to direction changes: in case of any problem, it is advisable to deactivate all control elements
and stop.
- Use on slopes: the most dangerous situations require even greater attention if the machine is on slopes. It
is advisable to remember that, when on slopes, the machine must ALWAYS move in the direction of the
gradient and never transversely. The most critical stage in terms of tip-over hazard is the direction change
and steering movement. Pay the utmost attention! Further information regarding use on slopes is provided

- DIRECTION OF TRAVEL: Pedal [#1 in

separate appendages depending on the direction in which you
want to proceed. Progressively press forward the right pedal to
go from stationary to maximum forward speed (as indicated by
the engraved arrow). Progressively press forward the left pedal to
reverse (as indicated by the engraved arrow). In both cases, it is
enough to lift your foot to decrease the speed and then stop the
machine when the pedal reaches its rest position (i.e. neutral
position). If the pedal does not automatically return to the neutral
position (when the foot is raised), see the recommendations in
CHAP. 7e – TROUBLESHOOTING.
Pay the utmost attention
operating in reverse, also due to the limited view
compared to the forward operations. Contain the
speed, check beforehand the presence of
possible obstacles behind the machine, act slowly both on pedal and steering wheel.

the machine in the required time and space, it is advisable to use the brake pedal. Press it until the end to
have a strong brake, but ONLY after having released, with the same foot (the right one), the travel direction
pedal.
The simultaneous use of brake [#4] and pedal [#1] is DETRIMENTAL to the internal components of the
hydrostatic transmission. Any warranty claim deriving from such an incorrect use will be rejected.
