Driving the Rider
1Release the parking brake by first pressing down the parking brake pedal and then releasing it.
2Carefully press down one of the pedals until the required speed is obtained. Pedal (1) is used to drive forwards, and pedal (2) to drive backwards.
4Select the required cutting height
It is important that the air pressure in both front wheels is equal, 60 kPa / 8.5 PSI, to produce an even cutting height.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The life span of the drive belts is increased significantly if the engine runs at a low speed when the blades are engaged. Therefore apply full throttle first when the cutting unit has been moved to the mowing position.

Braking
Release the drive pedals. The machine slows and is stopped by the drive system. Do not use the parking brake as the drive brake.
3Press in the lock button on the mechanical lifting lever and lower the cutting unit.
If the cutting unit does not lower completely, or if the blades do not rotate, lower the cutting unit completely using the hydraulic lifting lever. In order to ensure that the hydraulic cylinder is in the outer position, hold the lever in the forward position for a half to one second.
Quicker braking is possible if you press down the drive pedal for the opposite direction.
