12. SPEED CHANGE LEVER
This lever has seven positions for the 5 forward speeds, the
neutral position «N», and reverse «R». To go from one speed
to another, press the pedal (11) half way and move the lever
as per the indications on the label.
Reverse must only be engaged
when the machine is stopped.
21. BRAKE PEDAL
In hydrostatically driven models this pedal is solely for brak-
ing and works on the rear wheels.
22. SPEED CHANGE LEVER
This lever engages drive to the wheels and changes the
machine’s forward and reverse speed.
The machine’s forward speed gradually increases by mov-
ing the lever towards «F». Reverse is engaged by moving
the lever to «R». When the brake pedal (21) is pressed the
lever automatically returns to the «N» (neutral) position.
It can also be moved there manually even without pressing
the brake.
When the parking brake (3) is enga-
ged the speed change lever is locked in the «N» position
and cannot be moved until the parking brake and the pe-
dal have been released.

23. LEVER TO RELEASE THE HYDROSTATIC DRIVE
This lever has two positions shown on the plate:
Position «A» = Drive engaged: for all operating conditions,
when moving and during cutting;
Position «B» = Drive released: considerably reduces the
effort required for moving the machine
manually, when the engine is not running.
To avoid damaging the transmission
unit, this operation must be carried out only when the
engine has stopped with the lever (22) at position «N».
