Driving

Before starting

Read the safety instructions and information concerning the placement of controls and functions before starting.

Perform daily maintenance before starting as set out in the Maintenance schedule.

WARNING! Do not use the machine on

!ground that slopes more than 10°. Mow slopes upwards and downwards, never across. Avoid sudden changes in direction.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION The air intake grille in the engine cover behind the driver’s seat must not be blocked by, for example, clothing, leaves, grass or dirt. Impaired cooling of the engine. Risk of major engine damage.

Clear the lawn from stones and other objects which can be thrown out by the blades.

Localise and mark stones and other fixed objects to avoid collision.

Start with a high cutting height and reduce down until the required mowing results are obtained.

The mowing result will be best with the highest permitted engine speed, see technical data, (the blades rotate rapidly) and low speed (the Mower moves slowly). If the grass is not too high and thick, the driving speed can be increased without noticeably depreciating the mowing result.

The best lawns are achieved if the grass is cut often. Mowing becomes more uniform and the grass cuttings become more evenly distributed over the surface. The total time consumption is not greater since it is possible to select a higher driving speed without inferior mowing results.

Avoid mowing a wet lawn. The mowing results are inferior since the wheels sink down into the soft lawn.

Hose down the cutting unit with water underneath each time it is used, avoid using a high pressure washer. The cutting unit should then be put in the service position.

When the BioClip function is used, it is very important that the mowing interval is not too long.

1Make sure that the clutch control is depressed. R 422 Ts AWD have one control for the front axle and one control for the rear axle.
