USING THE MACHINE
Operating
Be careful when driving on slopes.
The vehicle’s braking characteristics and stability can be affected by installed accessories or optional extras. Be particularly careful when driving on slopes.
Hopper bag height
Set the hopper bag so that its bottom is horizontal and is
Brush height setting
Set the brushes to the correct height by undoing the locking wheel and then moving the arm up or down, see fig. 19. If the arm is moved down, the brushes are raised. The best results are obtained if the brushes sweep the top of the grass without touching the soil below. The brushes must not be lowered so much that the collector’s wheels slide or slip.
Speed
•Test which speed produces the best results.
•The speed should be selected so that the grass is thrown to the rear part of the hopper bag.
•Recommended speed: 4.8 - 6.4 km/h.
