engine has been switched on, disengage the choke device and gradually speed up. Let the engine
warm up for a couple of minutes before starting work.
STARTING THE DIESEL ENGINE
Push the throttle lever halfway (fig. 1A, n. 1) and make sure that the lever to switch off the engine
(fig. 1A, n. 13) is turned fully upwards. To switch on the engine equipped with recoil starter pull
hard in the recoil starter handle (fig. 1A, n. 3)
STARTING THE MACHINE
Make sure the reverse gear lever (fig. 1A, n. 6) is positioned on the forward gear (see reverse
gear label – fig. 1). Select the desired gear using the lever (fig. 1A, n. 7). If the gear does not
engage immediately, do not force the lever but press and release it repeatedly until the gear
engages. Both the machine and the blades engage by pressing the grey safety device (fig. 1A, n.
12) and subsequently pressing the red clutch lever (fig. 1A, n. 2A).
CAUTION: THE BLADES WILL IMMEDIATELY ENGAGE IF THE RIGHT PTO LEVER IS
RELEASED (fig. 1B, n. 9).
Both the machine and the blades top when the red clutch lever (fig. 1A, n. 2A) is released, the
engine keeps on running and the clutch lever comes back into "STOP" position (fig. 1A, n. 2).
STARTING WORK
To engage the cutting bar unlock the PTO lever on the right side of the handlebar (fig. 1B, n. 9) by
pressing the grey button on the lever.
IMPORTANT: when the right lever (fig. 1B, n. 9) is PRESSED the PTO is NOT engaged and
the attachment is off, when the lever is RELEASED the PTO is ON and the attachment starts
rotating (see PTO label – fig. 1)
CAUTION: When the cutting bar is on hold your hands and feet away.
Important: Do not use the machine whilst only partially depressing the red lever or damage to the
clutch may result.
To disengage the cutting bar press the lever on the right side of the handlebar (fig. 1B, n. 9) until
you hear the grey safety device locking.
IN CASE OF DANGER IMMEDIATELY RELEASE THE RED LEVER ON THE LEFT SIDE OF
THE HANDLEBAR (fig. 1A, n. 2).
BOTH THE MACHINE AND THE CUTTING BAR WILL IMMEDIATELY STOP.

REVERSE GEAR

To engage the gear lever press the appropriate lever (fig. 1a, n. 6). If the reverse gear does not
engage immediately, do not force the lever but press and release it repeatedly until the gear
engages.
IMPORTANT: Before pressing down the red clutch lever to start the machine, always check which
gear is engaged (see reverse gear label – fig. 1).

HANDLEBAR ADJUSTMENT

To adjust the height of the handlebar unlock the appropriate lever (fig. 1A, n. 8), raise or lower the
handlebar and then release the lever to lock its position. To turn the handlebar use the lever (fig.
1A, n. 10), turn the handlebar to right or to the left and then release the lever to lock its position.
SWITCHING OFF THE PETROL ENGINE
Set the throttle lever into "0" position (fig. 1A, n. 1).
SWITCHING OFF THE DIESEL ENGINE
Fully press the off lever located on the left side of the handlebar (fig. 1A, n. 13).
END OF WORK
Once work is ended, switch the engine off, set the gear lever into neutral and disengage the PTO.
When the gear is in idle position (letter F on the label) it is possible to move the machine manually.
CAUTION: never leave the machine on slopes with the gear lever in neutral position. If the
machine is to be parked on a slope always engage the 1 st gear. Never leave the machine
unguarded or in a place where children or inexperienced people could have easy access to it.
