12.7 Mowing
Before mowing:
Read and observe the section "Notes
on working with the machine". (Ö 10.)
Always work at the maximum engine
speed. The mowing blade is optimised
for this speed – it produces the best
cutting pattern as well as the most
powerful suction effect for collection of
the clippings.
Engage the mowing deck in the
following sequence:
Start the engine. (Ö 12.2)
Set the throttle lever to the MAX
position. (Ö 8.2)
Drive the ride-on mower onto the lawn.
Do not engage the mowing deck in tall
grass or when set to the lowest cutting
level. Only engage the mowing deck
when the machine is already on the
area to be worked.
Forward mowing:
Select the forward driving direction
(Ö 8.5), then engage the mowing deck
by pressing the mowing deck switch.
(Ö 8.3)
Reverse mowing:
Select the reverse driving direction
(Ö 8.5) and briefly press the reverse
mowing safety switch (Ö 8.4) once,
then engage the mowing deck by
pressing the mowing deck switch within
6 seconds. (Ö 8.3)
During mowing:
Set the throttle lever to the MAX
position. (Ö 8.2)
Always adapt the driving speed to the
grass height/cutting level.
A low driving speed should be selected
when mowing tall grass/at a low cutting
level.
Changing the driving direction with the
mowing deck engaged:
For reverse mowing, briefly press the
reverse mowing safety switch once
within the designated time window
(5 seconds/1 second after switching).
(Ö 8.4)
Bring the machine to a standstill on the
lawn and set the required driving
direction using the driving direction
selector lever. (Ö 8.5)
Continue mowing.
Risk of injury!
Adjust the cutting height only when
the machine is at a standstill.
If the mowing deck is engaged
when driving, the engine speed is
briefly reduced due to the additional
load (mowing blade starting to
rotate).
A permanent continuous tone
signals that the grass catcher box is
full. (Ö 12.9)
