- PARKING/SERVICE: As explained in chapter 6a on control
elements, the machine is equipped with a mechanical lock
[lever #2] of the brake pedal [#4], which therefore makes it a
parking/service brake.
Before parking and leaving the vehicle:
– Disengage the rotor.
- Progressively raise the right foot from the travel direction
pedal until it automatically returns to the NEUTRAL position.
- Bring the throttle to the minimum.
- Activate (again using the right foot) the pedal brake by
pressing it forward.
- Activate lever #2 by hand until it is locked in position (as
shown in the figure on the side) with the brake pedal still pressed.
- Raise the foot from the brake pedal.
- Turn the machine off urning the key to OFF.
Only at this point it is possible to get off and leave the vehicle.
To RESTART from parking:
Repeat the above steps in the reverse order: gently press the brake pedal forward => lever #2 comes out
its locking position and needs to return to its rest position => release the brake and, with the same foot
(i.e. right foot), choose the travel direction.
Remember that before acting on the travel direction pedal it is always ESSENTIAL to unlock the parking
brake!
NEVER ACTIVATE THE TRAVEL DIRECTION PEDAL WHILE THE PARKING BRAKE
IS ENGAGED: this can cause irreversible damage to the hydrostatic
It is useful to remember, as it has been done several times in this manual, that an incorrect
maintenance or performed by unauthorised workshops can expose the user to serious injury
risks or technical faults not covered by the warranty.
Safety warnings:
All maintenance operations must be carried out with engine off, ignition key disengaged, parking brake
engaged and machine parked on a solid and flat surface.
- Moreover, check if there are people nearby.
- Make sure that the machine cannot drift for any reason.
- Keep always in mind the risks connected to the use of fuel (fire and vapour inhalation), and pay
attention to the presence of sharp tools.
