ENGINE START-UP (Fig. 9C)
When starting the engine, follow the
instructions contained in the engine's
"Use and Maintenance" booklet, and
after having made sure that the gear
control and P.T.O. control levers are in
idle position, lock the Motorstop lever
1 and clutch lever 2 by using hook C.
This prevents the power transmission of
engine with a gear engaged.

ENGAGING GEARS
Motorcultivator type 1+1 has a 2 -speed
gearbox (1 forward + 1 reverse) selected
by lever 5 (Fig. 10A - 13A).
- With handlebars in tilling position (white
symbols on the plate): the travel direction
is selected with lever 5.
- With handlebars in front implements
position (black symbols on the plate): the
travel direction is selected with lever 5.
All models are equipped with a safety device that prevents the accidental
engagement of the reverse gear when the P.T.O. is already engaged and vice versa
(handlebars in tilling position)
ATTENTION: To avoid unnecessary strain on the controls, make sure that the
P.T.O. is in idle position before engaging the reverse gear (and vice versa).
N.B. The engagement of the gears should always be preceded by the disengagement
of the clutch. In order to make the engagement of the direction selector easier, set
the engine at minimum running and operate the lever without using the clutch. Avoid
a protracted clutch disengagement in order to limit the wear of the thrust bearing.
