Mountfield 1228M H User Manual

For hydrostatic drive models:
21. B
RAKE PEDAL
In hydrostatically driven
models this pedal is
solely for braking and
works on the rear
wheels.
22. S
PEED CHANGE
LEVER
This lever engages drive
to the wheels and
changes the machine’s
forward and reverse
speed.
The machine’s forward
speed gradually
increases by moving
the lever towards «F».
Reverse is engaged by
moving the lever to «R».
When the brake pedal
(21) is pressed the lever automatically returns to the «N» (neutral) position. It
can also be moved there manually even without pressing the brake.
When the parking brake (3) is engaged the speed change
lever is locked in the «N» position and cannot be moved until the parking
brake and the pedal have been released.
23. L
EVER TO RELEASE THE HYDROSTATIC DRIVE
This lever has two positions shown on the plate:
Position «A» = Drive engaged: for all operating conditions, when moving and
during cutting;
Position «B» = Drive released: considerably reduces the effort required for
moving the machine manually, when the engine is not run-
ning.
To avoid damaging the transmission unit, this operation
must be carried out only when the engine has stopped with the lever (22) at
position “N”.
