Presentation

Congratulations on your choice of an excellent quality product that will give you great pleasure for many years. This operator’s manual describes Rider 175 and Rider 175 AWD.

The machines are equipped with a 17,5 horse power engine from Briggs & Stratton.

Rider 175 AWD is equipped with all wheel drive.

The power transmission from the engine is handled by a hydrostatic gearbox, which allows variable variation of the speed by using the pedals.

One pedal for driving forward and one for reverse.

Throttle control/choke control

The throttle control regulates the engine speed, and thereby also the rotation speed of the blades.

The control is also used to activate the choke. When the choke is engaged a richer fuel and air mixture is fed to the engine, which facilitates starting in the cold.

Speed limiter

The speed of the machine is steplessly regulated with two pedals. Pedal (1) is used to drive forwards, and pedal (2) to drive backwards.

WARNING! Make sure that branches do not

!obstruct the pedals when mowing under bushes. Otherwise there is a risk you may lose control.

Parking brake

The parking brake is applied as follows:

1Press down the parking brake pedal (1).

2Press in the lock button (2) on the steering column.

3Release the parking brake pedal while keeping the button pressed in.

The parking brake lock disengages automatically when the brake pedal is pressed.

Cutting unit

Rider 175 and 175 AWD can be equipped with two different cutting units.

•Combi 1030mm/41”

•Combi 1120 mm/44”

The Combi-unit, equipped with a BioClip-plug, ﬁnely chops the cuttings to fertiliser. Without the BioClip-plug the unit works in the same way as a rear ejection unit.
