12.7 Mowing
If the mowing deck is engaged

briefly reduced due to the additional
load (mowing blade starting to
rotate).
Before mowing:
● Read and observe the section "Notes
on working with the machine". (
● 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. ( 12.2)
● Set the throttle lever to the MAX
position. ( 8.2)
● Drive the ride-on mower onto the lawn.
