– The brake is applied by pressing the pedal
right down (4.21 or 4.31) and moving the lever
to position «B». When you take your foot off
the pedal it will be blocked by the lever in the
lowered position.
– To disengage the parking brake, press the
pedal (4.21 or 4.31). The lever will return to
position «A».
4.5 BLADE ENGAGEMENT AND BRAKE
CONTROL
The mushroom switch allows you to engage the
blades using the electromagnetic clutch:

disengaged
«B» Pulled = Blades
engaged
– If you engage the blades without taking the
necessary safety precautions, the engine
shuts down and cannot be restarted (
5.2).
– Blade disengagement (Pos. «A»), simultane-
ously activates a brake which stops their rota-
tion in a few seconds.

one of the stop
notches.

4.21 CLUTCH / BRAKE PEDAL
This pedal has two functions: during the first
part of its travel it acts as a clutch, engaging
and disengaging drive to the wheels, and in
the second part it acts as a brake on the rear
wheels.
IMPORTANT
Do not keep the
pedal halfway between clutch engagement
or disengagement, as this can cause over-
heating and damage the transmission belt.
NOTE
When the machine
is moving, keep your foot off the pedal.
4.22 SPEED CHANGE LEVER
This lever has
seven positions
for the 5 forward
speeds, the neu-
tral position «N»,

To go from one
speed to another,

(4.21) halfway
and shift the lever
as shown on the
label.
WARNING!
Only shift into re-
verse when the machine has stopped
moving.
