2.4.7 Ignition lock (1:E)
Do not leave the machine with the key
in position 2 or 3. There is a fire risk,
fuel can run into the engine through the
carburettor, and there is a risk of the
battery being discharged and damaged.
Ignition lock used for starting/stopping the engine.
Four positions:
1. Stop position – the engine is short-
circuited. The key can be removed.
2/3. Operating position.
4. Start position – the electric start motor
is activated when the key is turned to the
spring-loaded start position. Once the eng-
ine has started, let the key return to opera-
ting position 2/3.
2.4.8 Gear lever (2:H) (Man))
A lever for selecting one of the five forward gears
in the gearbox (1-2-3-4-5), neutral (N) or reverse
(R).
The clutch pedal must be kept pressed in when
changing gear.
NOTE! You must make sure the machine is quite
stationary before changing from reverse to forward
gear or vice versa. If a gear does not engage
immediately, release the clutch pedal and then
press it in once again. Engage the gear once again.
Never force a gear in.
2.4.9 Power take-off (2:G)
A lever for engaging and disengaging the power
take-off for operating front-mounted accessories.
Two positions:
1. Lever in forward position – power take-
off disengaged.
2. Lever in backward position - power
take-off engaged.
2.4.10Clutch release lever (HST, 4WD)
A lever for disengaging the variable transmission.
HST is equipped with a lever, connected to the rear
axle. See (5:N).
4WD is equipped with two levers, connected to the
rear axle (6:O) and the front axle (6:P).
The disengagement lever must never be
between the outer and inner positions.
This overheats and damages the trans-
mission.
The levers enable the machine to be moved by
hand without the help of the engine. Two positions:
1. Lever in the inner position –
transmission engaged for normal
operation.
2. Lever in the outer position –
transmission disengaged. The
machine can be moved by hand.
The machine may not be towed over long distances
or at high speeds. The transmission could be dam-
aged.
The machine must not be operated with
the forward most lever in the outer po-
sition. Risk of damage and oil leakage in
the front axle.
2.4.11 Seat (3:I)
The seat can be folded and is adjustable
front-rear. The seat is locked in the folded
up position using the catch (3:K) and ad-
justed front-rear using the knobs (3:J).
The seat is equipped with a safety switch that is
connected to the machine’s safety system. This
means that certain dangerous activities are not pos-
sible when there is nobody in the seat.
2.4.12 Engine casing (4:L)
To access the fuel cock, battery and engine
the engine is equipped with engine casing
that can be opened. The engine casing is
locked by a rubber strap.
The engine casing is opened as follows:
1. Detach the rubber strap (4:M) at the front edge
of the engine casing.
2. Carefully lift the engine casing back.
Close in reverse order.
The machine may not be operated un-
less the engine casing is folded down
and locked. Risk of burns and crushing
injuries.
