Adjust the brake, using the register, which is located on the lever (fig. 2 n° 12).
USEFUL RULES FOR EFFICIENT USE
1) Never strain the engine: when fumes are emitted from the exhaust it means that it is being strained. Slow down.
2) Do not leave the machine out in the rain.
3) Frequently sharpen the mower blades: the cut will be better and the engine will not be strained as much.
4) Keep the engine at peak rpm during mowing, adjust the speed according to the height of the grass.
5) Keep the grilles above the engine and the cooling fins of the hydraulic motor clean (fig. 7 – 8).
