THE MACHINE
PUSHING OR TOWING THE MACHINE
If the machine becomes disabled, it can be
pushed or towed from the front or rear.
The parking brake must be disabled before towing
or pushing the machine. To disable the brake,
insert the tip of a small screw driver between the
electronic brake lever and the hub. The machine
can move freely when the parking brake is
disabled.
Only push or tow the machine for a
very short
distance
and do not exceed 3.2 kp/h (2 mph). It is
NOT intended to be pushed or towed for a long
distance or at a high speed.
ATTENTION! Do not push or tow machine for
a long distance or damage may occur to the
propelling system.
Immediately after pushing the machine, remove
the screw driver from between the electronic
brake lever and the hub. NEVER operate the
machine with the parking brake disabled.
FOR SAFETY: Do not operate machine with
brake disabled.
