5.5.3 TRAVELLING SPEED AND MOWING GRASS
It generally applies that the wetter, higher and more dense the grass is, the lower the travelling
speed that should be used. When the machine is travelling at high speed or when under large load,
the rotation speed of the blades is reduced, the quality of the cut is worse and the ejection chute may
become clogged. Under such conditions always set the engine to maximum power.
If the grass is very high, it is necessary to mow it several times. First mow at maximum elevation
and with narrower mowing coverage width if necessary. The second run can then proceed at the
required mowing height.
We recommend mowing in the parallel or cross direction. Covering the previous coverage of the
machine increases the effectiveness of the blades and will improve the appearance of the mowed area.
When travelling over uneven terrain the travelling speed may fluctuate.
Recommended travelling speeds of the machine based on conditions:
Condition of vegetation
High, dense and wet
Average conditions
Low, dry vegetation
Travelling without the mowing deck engaged
5.5.4 TRAVELLING ON A SLOPE
The OM / EF 92 ride-on mower may work on slopes with an
incline of up to 10° (17%).
When working on a slope it is necessary to adhere to the
following fundamentals:
Pay increased attention when travelling on a slope.
Always use a slower travelling speed.
Only travel perpendicular to the contour, i.e. up and down.
Travelling in the direction of the contour is possible with
extra attention only when turning the machine. If at all
possible, avoid travelling along the contour.
When turning ensure that a wheel does not drive over an
elevated obstacle (rock, tree root, etc.)
Travel slower when travelling down a slope or over obstacles.
Pay special attention when turning and turning around on
slopes.
If you stop on a slope, always use the parking brake.
When overloading the machine by travelling on slopes over 10° (15°) there is a risk of serious
damage to the transmission. The manufacturer is not responsible for damage caused in this
way.
