MAIN COMPONENTS

The machine is composed of a series of main
components that have the following functions (Fig.1.0):
A. Chassis: this is the casing that houses
the rotating cutting means.
B. The engine: drives both the cutting means
and the wheel traction (if available).
C. Cutting means: the element
designed to cut the grass.
Rear discharge guard: it is a safety device which
D.
prevents objects collected by the cutting means
from being projected away from the machine.
E. Rear discharge chute (if available): apart from
discharging the grass on the ground, at the back,
it also constitutes a safety element, preventing
any objects collected by the cutting means
from being projected away from the machine.
Side discharge guard (if available): it
F.
is a safety device which prevents objects
collected by the cutting means from being
projected away from the machine.
Side discharge chute (if available): apart from
G.
discharging the grass on the ground laterally,
it also constitutes a safety element, preventing
any objects collected by the cutting means
from being projected away from the machine.
H. Grass catcher: apart from collecting
the mown grass, the grass catcher also
constitutes a safety element, preventing any
objects collected by the cutting means from
being projected away from the machine.
I. Handle: this is the operator's work station.
It is long enough to ensure the operator
remains at a safe distance from the
rotary cutting means whilst working.
J. Battery (if it is not supplied with the machine,
see chapter 15 "attachments on request"):
provides the energy for starting the motor;
its specifications and regulations for use
are described in a specific manual.
K. Operator presence lever: this lever enables
the cutting means and drive to be operated. The
motor stops when both levers are released.
L. Drive engagement lever: this lever
engages the drive to the wheels and
allows the machine to move forward.
M. Hatch for accessing the battery compartment
N. Safety key (Deactivation device): The key
enables / disables the machine electric circuit.
O. Battery charger (if it is not supplied with the
machine, see chapter 15 "attachments on
request"): device used to recharge the battery.
