RUNNING IN - CAUTION!!
Change the engine oil and filter after the first 5 working hours.
Check that there are no oil leaks or slack screws, especially those which fix the blade and the steering.
BEFORE STARTING UP THE ENGINE
Before starting up the engine, always check that:
– the travel lever is in the idle position (fig. 3);
– the engine oil level is correct (fig. 4);
– the engine cooling intake grilles are clean (fig. 4);
– air filter is clean (fig. 8).
– the mowing deck is clean;
– the hydraulic motor fins are clean (fig. 5);
– the blades are sharp and firmly fastened in place;
– the screw in the centre of the blade hub is safety tightened (3, fig. 9)
– the oil in the hydraulic axle is at the correct level (fig. 5); the correct level is 12 mm underneath the
bottom of the tank (fig. 6);
Fill the fuel tank using a funnel with very fine filter (4, fig. 10).
Adjust the seat by using the lever fig. 11.
STARTING UP THE ENGINE
–
Push the throttle half way in (5, fig. 3)
– If the engine is cold, use the choke (6, fig. 3). Turn the ignition key (1, fig. 1).
– Once the engine has started, turn off the choke and wait for a few minutes to allow the engine to warm
up.
N.B. When travelling with the mower from one place to another, you are advised to keep the cutting deck
at the maximum height setting.
SWITCHING ON THE HEADLAMP
To switch on the headlamp, put the ignition key in the second position (fig. 18, position A).
IMPORTANT
It is necessary to switch on the headlamp once the engine has started up to avoid battery discharge.
STARTING WORK
– Choose the desired cutting height by means of the lever 8 fig. 2. Suitably accelerate the
engine and engage the PTO lever using the switch on the dashboard (Fig.1, n°6). Gently
operate the forward travel lever (2, fig. 3) and start work. To stop, return the forward travel
lever to the stop position.
– The lever (2, fig. 3) is also used to reverse. When it is moved back, the machine moves
backwards; always operate it gently.
FRONT BRAKE
The front brake (4, fig. 1) must be used only as emergency brake, sloping down in order to avoid the
machine sliding. If you use it together with the differential lock, the machine is steadier, above all in slope
conditions. In normal conditions, to slow down and brake you need only to use the feed lever.
In order to adjust the cables you have to operate on the adjusters fig. 26.
PARKING BRAKE
To engage the parking brake lift the loop up 10, fig. 3 and hook the lever.
To adjust the parking brake use the register (fig. 5).
DIFFERENTIAL LOCKING
The differential locking pedal is the one indicated in fig. 1 no. 5.
