5.4.3 SETTING THE HEIGHT OF THE MOWING MECHANISM
If you want to set the mowing mechanism higher from the ground, move its

lever upward.
If you want to set the mowing mechanism closer to the ground, move its lever

downward.
- Position "1" is used for duplicating uneven terrain. Do not use this height setting permanently,
because it will wear out the mowing mechanism's parts faster.
- The mowing mechanism is equipped with four travel wheels that lift the frame on uneven
terrain and thereby protect the blades from damage.
- If you want to reduce the control force that lifts the mowing mechanism on an AG122
machine, change the auxiliary spring attachment to the left side. The factory default
settings are:
5.4.4 BALANCING THE MOWING MECHANISM
For best mowing results, the mowing mechanism must be set to the correct height. The adjustment
process is explained in chapter "6.3.7 MOWING MECHANISM - INSPECTION AND ALIGNMENT" of this
manual.

5.5 DRIVING THE MACHINE

General warning before driving:
Make sure the parking brake is disengaged. The parking brake lever must not remain in position "2"

( 4.2). The parking brake automatically releases when the service brake pedal is pressed.
The bypass lever must be set to position "1", i.e., the bypass must be turned off.

When driving toward the mowing area, the mowing mechanism must be turned off and set to

the highest position, i.e., the mowing mechanism's height adjustment lever must be in position "7".
When driving over an obstacle more than 8 cm high (curbs, etc.), ramps must be used to prevent

damage to the mowing mechanism and transmission.
Avoid colliding the front wheels hard with solid obstacles. This can damage the front axles,

especially at high speeds.
5.5.1 DRIVING FORWARD/BACKWARD
Slowly move the accelerator lever to "MIN" position. This reduces engine RPM.

Slowly depress the accelerator pedal according to the desired driving direction (forward or reverse).

Caution! Pressing the pedal quickly can cause an accident!
