Caution: Only move the machine once the deflector has been lowered to the
maximum position to avoid the risk of any remaining shredded material being
ejected.The machine is equipped with a freewheel that allows it to be pushed by
hand when the engine has been shut off.
Caution: When moving the machine, ensure that any bystanders are at a
minimum distance of 10 m - 30 ft. If anyone begins to move towards you, stop
moving immediately.
TIP:
You should first try to become familiar with how a self-propelled machine moves by experimen-
ting with it in a quiet, open area without any bystanders and engine speed at idle.
A. If you have a self-propelled machine (ZR type)
• Start the engine.
(see Section 9.4, page 29)
• Reduce engine speed. (2,000 rpms)
Caution: Once the engine has been turned on, there is an imminent risk of
ejection. If there are any wood chips remaining inside the machine, they could
be blown out. This is why it is important for you to always wear safety goggles.
• Moving the machine:
•
Turning-twisting the control handle forwards will cause the ma-
chine to move forwards. The more you twist the control handle
forwards, the faster the machine will move. This also applies to
the opposite direction:
Turning the control handle in the oppo-
site direction will cause the machine to move backwards. The
more you turn-twist the handle the faster the machine will
move. Ensure that the area in which the machine will move is
free from anything that can be damaged by projectiles.
• To make a turn with the machine push the handle (left or
right) while simultaneously twisting the handle to move the
machine.
• The intensity with which you push the handle to the side will
determine the turning radius.
• In order to manoeuvre between obstacles, you will need to
reduce the speed of the machine (decrease RPM) to avoid losing control.
B. If you have the Cross Country version (version with tracks):
• Start the engine.
(see Section 9.4, page 29)
• Reduce engine speed. (2,000 rpms)
• To move the machine, perform the following steps: The control handle consists of two sepa-
rate handles: The left-side handle controls the left track, and the right-side handle controls
the right track.
