Figure 7.1
7 Operation of the self-propelled implement
7.1 Start the engine
• To start the engine, the drive lever (Fig.7.1, item 5) must be in the recess of the shift gate and
the lever for the PTO (Fig.7.1, item 3) in the "off" position.
If the levers are not in the position described above, the ignition of the engine is
interrupted, and the engine does not start
• During the starting process, it is forbidden to operate the Deadman switch (Fig.7.1;
• To start the engine, refer to the respective Honda engine owner's manual.
7.2 Driving off
• Press the throttle lever (Fig.7.1, item 6) approx.
• Press the Deadman switch (Fig.7.1, item 1) down and keep it pressed. Likewise, the lower lever
(Fig.7.1; Pos.2), which works as a conventional "clutch" in the car pull and pulled.
• Make sure that nobody is in front of and behind the machine!
• For the forward movement push the driving lever (Fig.7.1, Pos.5) upwards and for the reverse
drive the driving lever downwards.
Make sure that the drive lever is always in its end position!
• After selecting the direction of travel, slowly release the lower lever (Fig.7.1, item 2). The faster
the lever is released, the faster the machine starts to move. To spare the components, a jerky
start should be avoided.
• If the machine is moving too fast or too slow, it can be changed by pressing the rotary knob
(Fig.7.1;)

15
Operation of the self-propelled implement
The presetting of the speed and the preselection of the direction of travel may only be
carried out when the single-axle system is at a standstill, by operating the lower lever
(Fig.7.1) Respectively!
• The throttle lever (Fig.7.1, item 6) influences the engine speed and thus also the driving
speed. Always try to drive with the lowest speed required, this protects material and the
environment.
• The PTO is switched to "on" or "off" with the lever (fig.7.1; pos.3). This lever engages
automatically.
7.3 Parking the internal combustion engine
• Before switching off the combustion engine, make sure that the drive lever (Fig.7.1, item 5) in
the recess of the shift gate and the lever for the PTO (Fig.7.1, item 3) in the "off" position are
located.
• Move the throttle lever (Fig.7.1, item 6) to neutral and allow the engine to idle for approximately
one-half minute.
• Set the engine off switch located on the internal combustion engine to "0".
• Close the fuel tap
• Secure the tow tractor against unauthorized use and, if necessary, remove the ignition key.
• When leaving, secure the device against rolling away, by using wheel chocks or, if necessary,
by applying the parking brake
Tip:
In case of prolonged downtime, do not stop the engine with the engine off switch, but close the
fuel cock and let the engine run until it comes to a standstill by itself. Thus, the carburetor is
empty, and no gumming can occur.
This procedure must not be used in confined spaces, otherwise it exists
Choking hazard. Basically, pay attention to adequate ventilation!
7.4 Height and inclination angle adjustment of the hand rail
• In order to ensure the operator an ergonomically optimal working height, the height of the
handrails (Fig.7.2, item 1) can be adjusted at two different points.

Illustration 7.3
Illustration 7.2

16
Operation of the self-propelled implement
• By loosening the upper screws and removing the lower screws (Fig.7.2, Pos.2) left and
right on the handrail, it can be fixed in two other positions. The factory setting is the
middle position.
• If the height adjustment via the handrail is not sufficient, it is still possible to adjust the
guide bar (Fig.7.3, item 1). This is done by loosening and removing four screws (Fig.7.3;
Pos.2). The guide rail is factory mounted in the two lower holes.
7.5 Securing the machine during transport
• Pay attention to the trailer load of the towing vehicle and the permissible total weight of the trailer!
• Suitable loading ramps with sufficient load-bearing capacity must be used for loading the machine.
• The ramps must be secured against slipping.
• The machine must be secured against rolling during transport. Push the machine all the way forward
until it is on the front side wall with the attachment. The fastening straps wrap around the holder of the
guide rail.
• If present, engage the parking brake of the drive wheels.
• Switch off the engine and close the fuel tap.
• Before unloading the machine make sure that there is no obstacle immediately before the ramps on
the ground, otherwise there is a risk of collision. When unloading several machines, these are far
enough to drive out of the loading zone.
