Lower the cutting unit.
Cutting tips
•
Localise and mark stones and other fixed objects to avoid
collision.
•
Start with a high cutting height and reduce down until the
required mowing results are obtained.
•
The mowing result will be best with the highest permitted
engine speed, see technical data, (the blades rotate
rapidly) and low speed (the Rider moves slowly). If the
grass is not too high and thick, the driving speed can be
increased without noticeably depreciating the mowing
result.
•
The best lawns are achieved if the grass is cut often.
Mowing becomes more uniform and the grass cuttings
become more evenly distributed over the surface. The
total time consumption is not greater since it is possible to
select a higher driving speed without inferior mowing
results.
•
Avoid mowing a wet lawn. The mowing results are inferior
since the wheels sink down into the soft lawn.
•
Hose down the cutting unit with water underneath each
time it is used. The cutting unit should then be put in the
service position.
•
When the Mulching function is used, it is very important
that the mowing interval is not too long.

Disengage the engine and select 1st gear.
4
Gradually release the clutch pedal.
5
When the engine starts to pull, release the parking brake.
Stop the engine
Preferably allow the engine to idle for a minute to obtain
normal working temperature before stopping it if it has been
working hard. Avoid idling the engine for long periods, as
there is a risk of carbon build-up on the spark plugs.
1
Lift up the cutting unit by pulling the lever backwards to its
locked position.
2
For FR 2311 M

When the Rider is at a standstill, press down the parking
brake and push in the locking button.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The life span of the drive belts is increased significantly if
the engine runs at a low speed when the blades are
engaged. Therefore apply full throttle first when the cutting
unit has been moved to the mowing position.
!
WARNING! Clear the lawn from stones and
other objects which can be thrown out by
the blades.
