Driving
Driving the Rider
1
Release the parking brake by first pressing down the 
parking brake pedal and then releasing it.
2
Carefully press down one of the pedals until the required 
speed is obtained. Pedal (1) is used to drive forwards, and 
pedal (2) to drive backwards.
3
Press in the lock button on the mechanical lifting lever and 
lower the cutting unit.
If the cutting unit does not lower completely, or if the 
blades do not rotate, lower the cutting unit completely 
using the hydraulic lifting lever. In order to ensure that the 
hydraulic cylinder is in the outer position, hold the lever in 
the forward position for a half to one second.
4
Select the required cutting height (1-10) with the cutting 
height lever.
It is important that the air pressure in both front wheels is 
equal, 60 kPa / 0,6 bar / 8.7 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.
Stop the engine
Always park the machine on a level surface with the engine 
OFF. Avoid idling the engine for long periods, as there is a risk 
of carbon build-up on the spark plugs.
1
Lift the cutting unit with the hydraulic lifting lever.
The unit can then be secured in the raised position if 
necessary by moving the mechanical lifting lever 
backwards to the lock position.
If the cutting unit is left in the lower position, the start lock 
circuit will prevent engine starts.
2
Move the throttle control to the MIN. position. Turn the 
ignition key to the ”STOP”.
3
When the Rider is at a standstill, press down the parking 
brake and push in the locking button.
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.
