THREE-POSITION WHEEL
CLUTCHING DEVICE: The multi-functio-
nal unit is equipped with a special devi-
ce called a "THREE-POSITIONS FORK".
- In position 1 (free), the wheel turns free-
ly on the shaft so that the machine can
move when the engine is stopped.
DANGER!
Use this position only when the motor
is switched off. Some accessories can
cause injury to imprudent users.
- In position 2 (locked), the wheel is in-
tegral with the shaft, setting into drive,
meaning ready to start working. This is the
most commonly used position.
- In position 3 (semi-differential), the wheel
can perform about a half-turn turning on the
shaft, in order to allow turns.
CAUTION!
All operations on the three-position fork
must be performed when the engine is at
a standstill.
7.2 TANK FILLING
DANGER!
Use caution when handling flammable
fluids. Fuel is highly flammable and ex-
plosive.
DANGER!
Do not fill the tank in closed or poorly
ventilated environments.
DANGER!
Before refilling the tank, switch off the
machine and wait until the motor has
cooled down (15-20 min).
DANGER!
Do not smoke or use electronic devices
near combustible fluids.
DANGER!
Use suitable, undamaged filling devices
such as fuel cans, funnels, etc.
DANGER!
In case of fuel leakage, move the ma-
chine before starting it up.
