CONTROLS AND INSTRU-
MENTS
Items 1 - 20, see figures 1 - 9.
1. IMPLEMENT LIFTER
(Senator - President - Royal - Pro16)
A pedal for raising front-mounted implement to
the transport position.
To lift up the implement, press the pedal down as
far as it will go. Then release the pedal, the imple-
ment lifter is now locked in the lift position.
To lower the implement, press the pedal down so
that the lock is released. Lower the implement lift-
er to the working position by slowly lifting your
foot from the pedal.
2. HYDRAULIC LIFTER (Pro20)
Hydraulic implement lifter for raising front-
mounted implement to the transport position.
To raise the implement, press the rear
part of the switch. Release the switch
in the required position.
To lower the accessory, press the
front part of the switch. The switch
staysinthepressedpositionandthe
implement lifter is lowered until it
reaches a floating position. This
means that the implement can follow
the contours of the ground.
The floating position, with the switch in the tilted
forward position, is recommended for normal use.
To secure the implement lifter, place the switch in
neutral.
3A. SERVICE BRAKE/CLUTCH
(Senator)
A pedal that combines both service brake and
clutch. There are 3 positions:
1. Pedal released – forward drive
engaged. The machine will
move if a gear is engaged. Serv-
ice brake not activated.
2. Pedal depressed halfway –
forward drive disengaged, gear
shifting can be performed. Serv-
ice brake not activated.
3. Pedal fully depressed – for-
ward drive disengaged. Service
brake fully activated.
Note! You must never regulate the operating speed
by slipping the clutch. Use a suitable gear instead,
so that the right speed is obtained.

3B. SERVICE BRAKE
(President - Royal - Pro16 - Pro20)
A pedal that acts upon the machine’s braking sys-
tem. There are 3 positions:
1. Pedal released – service brake
not activated.
2. Pedal depressed halfway –
forward drive disengaged. Serv-
ice brake not activated.
3. Pedal fully depressed – for-
ward drive disengaged. Service
brake fully activated.
4. PARKING BRAKE
An inhibitor that can lock the brake pedal in the de-
pressed position.
Depress the brake pedal fully. Move the
inhibitor to the right and then release the
brake pedal.
The parking brake is released by pressing the brake
pedal. The spring-loaded inhibitor slides to one
side.
Make sure that the parking brake is released when
operating the machine.
5. DRIVE PEDAL (President - Royal -
Pro16 - Pro20)
A pedal that activates the variable transmission.
1. Depress the pedal with the
ball of your foot – the machine
moves forwards.
2. No load on the pedal – the ma-
chine is stationary.
3. Depress the pedal with your
heel – the machine reverses.
The drive pedal regulates the speed. The more
pressure applied, the faster the machine will move.
6. ADJUSTABLE STEERING WHEEL
(President - Royal - Pro16 - Pro20)
The steering wheel can be adjusted vertically in 5
positions. Press in the inhibitor on the steering col-
umn and raise or lower the steering wheel to the
desired position.
Do not adjust the steering wheel during opera-
tion.
7. THROTTLE/CHOKE CONTROL
A control for setting the engine speed and to choke
the engine when starting from cold (the latter does
not apply to Pro16-Pro20 which have separate
choke control – see item 8).
1. Choke – for starting a cold engine. The
choke is located in top of groove (does not
apply to Pro16-Pro20). Avoid operating
the machine in this position, taking care to
move the control to full throttle (see be-
low) when the engine is warm.
2. Full throttle – when the machine is in
operation, full throttle should always be
used.
3. Idling.
8. CHOKE CONTROL (Pro16 - Pro20)
A pull-type control to choke the engine when start-
ing from cold.
1. Control fully pulled out – choke valve
in carburettor closed. For starting cold en-
gine.
2. Control pushed in – choke valve open.
For starting warm engine and when oper-
ating the machine.
Never operate the machine with the choke
pulled out when the engine is warm.
9. IGNITION LOCK/SPOTLIGHT
Ignition lock used for starting/stopping the engine.
Also includes switch for spotlight (Senator does
not have a spotlight). Four positions:
1. Stop position – the engine is short-
circuited. The key can be removed.
2. Operating position – spotlight activat-
ed.
3. Operating position – spotlight not acti-
vated. 
						

							9
ENGLISHGB
4. Start position – the electric start motor
is activated when the key is turned to the
spring-loaded start position. Once the en-
gine has started, let the key return to oper-
ating position 3.
To turn on the spotlight, turn the key to position 2.
Note! If the key is turned from the stop position
to operating position 2, the spotlight is activat-
ed. This uses up battery power. Do not leave the
machine with the key in position 2 (applies to
Pro16-Pro20).
10. GEAR LEVER (Senator)
A lever for selecting one of the five forward gears
in the gearbox (1-2-3-4-5), neutral (N) or reverse
(R).
The clutch pedal must be kept pressed in when
changing gear.
Note! You must make sure the machine is quite sta-
tionary before changing from reverse to forward
gear or vice versa. If a gear does not engage imme-
diately, release the clutch pedal and then press it in
once again, then engage the gear once again. Never
force a gear in.
11. POWER TAKE-OFF (Senator -
President - Royal - Pro16)
A lever for engaging and disengaging the power
take-off for operating front-mounted accessories.
There are two positions:
1. Lever in forward position – power take-
off disengaged.
2. Lever in backward position - power
take-off engaged.
12. POWER TAKE-OFF (Pro20)
Switch for engaging and disengaging the electro-
magnetic power take-off for operating front-
mounted accessories. There are two positions:
1. Press the front part of the switch – the
power take-off is engaged. The symbol
will light up.
2. Press the rear part of the switch – the
power take-off is disengaged.
13. DIFFERENTIAL INHIBITOR
(Pro16 - Pro20)
Lever for engaging the differential inhibitor. This
improves the towing capacity by locking the rear
wheels so that both wheels drive simultaneously.
There are two positions:
1. Forward position – the differential in-
hibitor is not engaged. For normal opera-
tion.
2. Lever in backward position - differen-
tial inhibitor engaged. Works for both for-
ward and reverse drive.
The differential lever is of greatest use when the
rear wheels are unevenly loaded. For example,
when driving across a slope, where the upper rear
wheel is not as loaded, as well as when turning
sharp corners where the inner rear wheel bears a
lesser load.
When driving during the winter on slippery surfac-
es, the drive capacity is improved if snow chains
are not used.
When the differential inhibitor is engaged, the
steering is heavy. Avoid turning the steering
wheel!
14. HOUR COUNTER (President -
Royal - Pro16 - Pro20)
Indicates the number of working hours. Only
works when the engine is running.
15. CRUISE CONTROL (Royal -
Pro16 - Pro20)
A switch for activating the cruise control. The
function of the cruise control allows the drive ped-
al (5) to be locked in the desired position. You do
not need to use your right foot.
1. Press down the drive pedal until the de-
sired speed is obtained. Then press the
front part of the switch to activate the
cruise control. The symbol will light up.
2. Disengage the cruise control by press-
ing the rear part of the switch.
16. CUTTING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
(Royal - Pro16 - Pro20)
The machine is equipped with a control for using
the cutting deck with electrical cutting height ad-
justment (available as an accessory).

ment of a sand spreader (available as an accessory).

sion engaged for normal opera-
tion.

mission disengaged. The ma-
chine can be moved by hand.

or at high speeds. The transmission can be dam-
aged.
20. FUEL GAUGE/FUEL CAP
Fuel cap with built-in fuel gauge that indi-
cates how much fuel there is in the fuel
