DANGER!
REDUCE SPEED BEFORE ANY
CHANGE OF DIRECTION ON SLOPES, and always apply
the parking brake before leaving the machine at a stand-
still and unattended.
WARNING!
Start moving forwards very carefully
on sloping ground to prevent the risk of tipping over.
Reduce the forward speed before going on a slope, par-
ticularly downhill.
DANGER!
Never use reverse to reduce speed
going downhill: this could cause you to lose control of
the vehicle, especially on slippery ground.
Mechanical transmission
DANGER!
Never ride the machine on slopes
in neutral or with the clutch out! Always shift into a
low gear before leaving the machine at a standstill
and unattended.
Hydrostatic transmission
Go down slopes with your foot off the drive pedal
( 4.32), to use the braking effect of the hydrostatic drive
when the transmission is not engaged.
5.6 TRANSPORTING
WARNING!
If the machine is transported on a
truck or trailer, use ramps with suitable resistance,
width and length. Load the machine with the engine
switched off, without a driver and pushed by an ade-
quate number of people. During transport, close the fuel
stopcock (if fitted), lower the cutting deck, engage the
parking brake and fasten the machine securely with
ropes or chains to the hauling device.

5.7 LAWN MAINTENANCE

1. To keep a lawn green, soft and attractive, it should be cut
regularly without damaging the grass. A lawn can be
composed of different types of grass. If the lawn is cut
frequently, grass and roots grow more vigorously, forming a
solid grassy bed. If the lawn is cut is less frequently, higher
grass and weeds start growing (plus daisies and clovers,
etc.).
t is always better to cut the grass when dry.

3. The blades must be in good condition and well sharpened
so that the grass is cut straight without a ragged edge that
leads to yellowing at the ends.
The engine must run at full speed, both to ensure a sharp

cut of the grass and to get the necessary thrust to push the
cuttings through the collector channel.
