28. Throttle control

The accelerator is used to control the speed of the engine and thereby also the rotation speed of the blades.

In order to increase or decrease the engine speed, the control is moved forwards or backwards respectively.

29. High speed

Activated switch. This switch is used to select either high or low speed.

The speed must drop to zero before the machine shifts to low speed if high speed is actuated.

If the differential lock is actuated, the machine will not shift to high speed until the pedal is released.

Front wheel drive is engaged in high speed mode.

All wheel drive is engaged in low speed mode.

The differential lock and cutting unit only work in low speed mode.
