Pos: 19.4 /Inne@ @
The rear wheel drive is switched on and off by means of the drive control handle (1) on
the top guide bar (2) when the motor is running:
– Pull and hold the drive control handle = mower moves
– Release the drive control handle = mower stops (0-position).
The drive control handle must always be pulled firmly up against the top bar. Improper
activation will cause wear on the gearbox. The increased resist
starting position is deliberate to make accidental operation more difficult.

The lawnmower is equipped with a motor stop device.
Before every mowing job, make sure that the motor stop safety cont
perfectly. When the control bar is released, the motor and cutter bar must come to a
standstill within three seconds.
After release, the bar must always return to the position shown in the "component
description" diagram.

Risk of inju
If the blade run-on time is longer, stop using the equipment and take it to an authorised
workshop.
Measuring run-on time
After the engine has been started, the blade rotates and a wind-like noise can be heard.
The run-on time corresponds to the duration of the wind-like noise after the engine has
been stopped, it can be measured using a stopwatch.
Machine safety and protective devices must not be manipulated or disabled.
The perfect function of the motor drive control bar must be checked before every
mowing job too. When the motor drive control bar is released, the machine must come
