5.7 Driving
5.7.1 Brake pedal
The machine is equipped with a separate brake pedal (2) that is usually only necessary for keeping the machine in place
on a sloping surface, for example.
5.7.2 Double action drive pedal
Figure 57 Figure 58
The rotation speed of the engine is adjusted with the hand throttle (3), while the driving direction and speed are set using
the drive pedal (1). With the double action drive pedal (1) you can change the driving direction with the pedal as follows:
► By pressing the upper part of the pedal with the ball of the foot, the machine moves FORWARD.
► By pressing the lower part of the pedal with the heel, the machine moves BACKWARD.
► In the middle position of the pedal, the machine remains stationary. When pressure on the drive pedal is released, an
automatic braking action resulting from the hydrostatic power train takes place when driving forwards or backwards.
5.7.3 Economic driving
► Be proactive in your driving and with your speed.
► Avoid unnecessary and quick changes in speed, i.e. always adjust your driving and working speed to the prevailing
situation while observing external factors and conditions.
► Avoid unnecessary idling.
