Release the key after the engine has started.
6. Manual start: Grasp the starter handle and gently pull the starter handle until it starts to tighten,
then pull up quickly and hard. Return the starter handle slowly to the cable guide bolt after starting
the engine.
Do not allow the starter handle to drop back onto the engine. Replace it carefully to prevent dam-
age to the starter motor.
CAUTION! A quick pull on the starter cord (recoil) will pull your hand toward the engine faster than
you can let go. This can lead to broken bones, fractures, bruises and sprains.
7. After the machine has run for a few seconds, move the throttle to «FAST».
IMPORTANT! The throttle should be closed as soon as possible. Using it when the engine is already
warm can damage the spark plugs and cause the engine to run rough.
Note: If there are problems starting the engine, do not overdo it, as you risk dropping the battery
and overloading the engine. Turn the key to «STOP», wait a few seconds and then repeat the oper-
ation. If the malfunction persists, contact an authorized service center.
IMPORTANT! Always keep in mind that the safety devices prevent the engine from starting if the
safety requirements are not met. In these cases, once the situation has been corrected, the key
must rst be turned back to “STOP” before the engine can be restarted again.
STARTING AND DRIVING WITHOUT MOWING
This machine is not approved for use on public roads. Must be used (as specied by the Highway
Code) in private areas closed to trac.
CC When moving the machine, the blades must be switched o and the cutting deck raised as
high as possible
1. Set the throttle between «SLOW» and «FAST».
2. Release the parking brake.
3. Press down on the pedal. Place the gearshift lever in 1st gear.
4. Release the pedal gradually to start the movement.
CAUTION! The pedal must be released gradually, as sudden application may cause the vehicle to
roll over and cause loss of control.
5. To change gear, the clutch must always be used by depressing the pedal.
CAUTION! Do not release the pedal suddenly or start moving in a higher gear. This can cause over-
loading and loss of vehicle control.
STOPPING
1. First slow down the machine by reducing the engine speed.
2. Push the pedal down to reduce the speed further until the machine stops.
3. Move the gear shift speed to neutral «N» to allow smooth movement.
REVERSE
IMPORTANT! Reverse gear should only be engaged when the machine has stopped moving.
1. Press the brake pedal down.
2. When the machine has stopped, put it in reverse by moving the lever sideways to the «R» posi-
tion.
3. Gradually release the pedal to engage the clutch and then begin to reverse.
CUTTING GRASS
The machine is not designed for heavy work or for mowing large amounts of grass.
The blade is clamped using a clutch. To avoid damage or premature wear of the friction elements,
strictly observe the following instructions.
WARNING! DANGER: Do not touch the rotating blades. Knives are sharp, there is danger
from serious injury. Wait for the blade and all moving parts to stop before touching them. The blade
will continue to rotate for some time after the engine is turned o or the blade control is turned o.
• The grass area is clear of debris. Make sure the grass is clear of stones, sticks, wire or other foreign
objects that may be accidentally thrown from the mower or wrapped around the rotating parts.
This can cause serious injury to the operator and others, as well as damage to property and sur-
rounding objects.
