STARTING THE ENGINE
Insert the ignition key (fig. 1, n°3) and turn it until the engine oil indicator light is on. Push
the throttle lever to the end in order to automatically start the STARTER (fig.1, n. 6). As soon
as the engine starts, release the key and bring the throttle lever back to reach again the
engine max. revs. To switch the engine off turn the key to the “STOP” position.
STARTING WORK
1) Adjust the cutting height using the switch on the dashboard (fig. 1, n°4).
2) Adjust the seat (fig. 1, n°14) and the levers positions (fig.1, n°7).
3) Accelerate the engine half-way (fig. 1, n°6). Do not engage the blades with the engine
at maximum speed. Move the steering levers from the rest to the work position; in this
way, the parking brake will disengage and the machine can move. Now it is possible to
engage the PTO by lifting the appropriate switch (fig. 1, n°2). Always engage the blades
some metres before getting into the grass to cut, so to make sure the cutting deck get
cleaned.
4) Bring the engine to its full speed.
5) Gently operate the steering levers (fig. 1, n°1) and start work.
6) If you want to get from “rear discharge” mode to “mulching” and vice versa, disengage
the PTO (fig. 1, n°2) and move the steering levers to the parking brake position (fig. 1,
n°1). Grip the appropriate lever (fig.8, ref.A) making sure you are lifting the corresponding
position lock (fig. 8, ref.B). Turn the lever in the working mode you need. Free the position
lock until it embeds in its grooved swaging (fig. 9, ref.A).
FINISHING WORK
Once mowing has been completed, disengage the blades. To stop:
1) Move the steering levers to the parking brake position (fig. 1, n°1).
2) Set the throttle lever to minimum speed (fig. 1, n°6).
3) Turn the engine off by turning the key in the “STOP” position (fig. 1, n°3).
GUIDELINES FOR EFFECTIVE USE
The machine can also be used under most demanding conditions. Certain measures must
be taken and all devices must be adjusted properly.
1) Before starting work check that the deck is perfectly clean without any dried grass or soil
crusting.
