Foot Room With Pedals; Parking Brake - Kärcher MIC 70 Mode D'emploi

If this display appears, turn the potentiometer for
engine speed anticlockwise to the end position (0).
Working mode
In WORKING MODE, it is possible to choose between 3
options. These options influence the engine speed and hy-
draulic power.
● 30/60 l/min
The engine speed is limited to a max. 1600 rpm, and the
hydraulic power to 30 l/min, if the hydraulic PTO selector
switch is at 50 l/min.
The engine speed is limited to a max. 1600 rpm, and the
hydraulic power to 60 l/min, if the hydraulic PTO selector
switch is at 100 l/min.
● 40/80 l/min
The engine speed is limited to a max. 2200 rpm, and the
hydraulic power to 40 l/min, if the hydraulic PTO selector
switch is at 50 l/min.
The engine speed is limited to a max. 2200 rpm, and the
hydraulic power to 80 l/min, if the hydraulic PTO selector
switch is at 100 l/min.
● 50/100 l/min
Maximum hydraulic power and maximum engine speed.
Note
The selected setting is also kept when switching over be-
tween WORKING MODE AND CREEPING MODE.
When switching over to TRANSPORT MODE, the setting
is reset and the engine goes to idle speed.
After an option has been selected, the relevant display will
appear on the display (bottom right).
Changing to the option selection increases or reduces the
current speed, unless the engine is in idle mode.
Press the function button to return to the option se-
lection.

low arrow. The idle speed is always 950 rpm (minimum
speed).

6.8.1 Accelerator
ATTENTION
Other than in a normal motorcar, releasing the accelerator
pedal abruptly reduces the speed.
The braking force applied when you release the accelera-
tor pedal is weaker in higher gears and stronger in lower
gears.
The braking force applied when you release the accelera-
tor pedal in transport mode is significantly weaker than in
working mode.
Pressing the accelerator pedal increases the engine
speed.
The accelerator pedal is sprung. Releasing the accelerator
pedal reduces the engine speed.
The hydrostatic drive brakes or stops the vehicle when the
accelerator pedal is released.

Note
If the "Parking brake active" warning light in the display
lights up then the parking brake is engaged.
