Husqvarna Pro 18 AWD manual Driving the Rider, Braking

DRIVING

Driving the Rider

1.Release the parking brake by first pressing down the parking brake pedal and then releasing the brake pedal.

2.Carefully press down one of the pedals until the required speed is attained.

Pedal (1) is pressed down to travel forwards and pedal (2) to reverse.

WARNING!

Make sure that no branches can interfere with the pedals when mowing under bushes.

Risk for unintentional manoeuvring.

3.Press in the lock button on the lifting lever and lower the cutting deck.

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.

4.Select the required cutting height (1-7) using the cutting height lever.

It is important that the air pressure in both front wheels is equal, 060 kPa / 0.6 bar / 9 PSI, to produce an even cutting height.

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.

Quicker braking is possible if you press down the drive pedal for the opposite direction.
