The draw bars of the mowing deck elevation lever are pushed through the sheaths in the
frame and secured in place using two nuts.
Turn the nuts to set the desired control force. Set the same value on both sides of the
machine.
5.4.4 BALANCING THE MOWING DECK
To achieve the best mowing results, the cutting deck must be correctly vertically set. The adjustment
procedure is described in chapter "6.3.7 MOWING DECK - CHECKING AND BALANCING" of this manual.

5.5 DRIVING THE MACHINE

General warnings before driving:
Make sure that the parking brake is disengaged. The parking brake must not remain in position "2"
( 4.2). Stepping down on the operating brake automatically disengages the parking brake.
The by-pass lever must be set to position "1", i.e. by-pass of the drive must be activated.
When travelling to the mowing location, the mowing deck must be disengaged and elevated to the
highest position, i.e. the mowing deck elevation adjustment lever is in position "7".
When travelling over obstacles higher than 8 cm (kerbs, etc.) it is necessary to use ramps to
avoid damaging the mowing deck and the transmission.
Avoid hard impacts of the front wheels against rigid obstacles, this may result in damage to the
front axle, particularly when the machine is travelling at a high speed.
5.5.1 TRAVELLING FORWARD / REVERSING
Slowly move the throttle lever to position "MIN" This will lower the engine speed.
Slowly step on the drive pedal depending on the desired direction of travel (forward or reverse).
Attention! Risk of injury if the pedal is pushed down quickly!
- Changing the direction of travel forward-reverse is possible only after stopping the
machine. If the machine is not still, there is a danger of damaging the transmission.
- Never use the travel pedal and the brake pedal at the same time – this may result
in a malfunction of the transmission.
The system is equipped with an automatic mowing deck disengagement for reversing function at
a speed higher than 0.3 m/s (approx. 1 km/hour).
In the event of intentional and controlled reversing with the mowing deck engaged, it is possible to
disengage this safety function by pressing the R button located next to the steering wheel (
Then with every subsequent change in the travel direction from reverse to forward, the disengagement
of the mowing deck is reactivated.
When using the disengagement of this function with the R button, pay exceptional
attention to the area behind the machine when reversing.
5.5.2 STOPPING TRAVEL
The forward/reverse travel of the machine is stopped by gradually taking your foot off the travel
pedal and subsequently stepping on the brake pedal.
In the event that cruise control is engaged and the brake pedal is stepped on, it automatically
moves to the neutral position. The braking distance is shorter than 2 m.
