6.2 OPERATION AND USE
1.4 Machine safety features
Your mowing machine is equipped with safety contacts that are connected with the switch located underneath the
driver seat. The engine will stop automatically if the driver leaves the seat. The engine may be started only if the
mowing mechanism is off and the height setting lever is in the transport position.
6.2.1 STARTING THE ENGINE
• Check the gasoline level in the tank.
• Check the oil level in the transmission equalizing tank.
• Check if the by-pass lever is in the "1" position; tHAT IS ON.
• Sit comfortably on the driver seat and lift the mowing mechanism lever 6.1.8 to the transport position.
• Move the mowing mechanism switch 6.1.1 to the OFF position.
• Move the travel control lever 6.1.5 to the N position. If the lever is not in this position, the engine cannot be
started.
• Step on the break pedal 6.1.10.
• Move the gas control lever 6.1.3 to the maximum engine speed (rpm).
• Pull out the choke lever 6.1.4.
