7. WHEN FILLING WITH FUEL
DANGER : Fuel is highly flammable and
explosive. Take the following precautions.
7.1. Do not add or drain fuel indoors, while smoking,
or near a source of flame.
7.2. Do not remove the fuel tank cap or add fuel to the
tank while the engine is running or hot. Wait until
the engine cools down sufficiently.
7.3. Do not completely fill the fuel tank. Add fuel to the
tank until the level inside the tank is just below
the bottom of the filler neck. The empty space
allows the fuel to expand.
7.4. If you spill fuel, clean it up and do not attempt to
start the engine until the vapour has dissipated.
7.5. When fuelling under certain circumstances, a
static charge may develop and ignite the fuel.
7.6. Use only an approved fuel container to store fuel.
7.7. Do not store the front mower or the fuel container
near a source of open flame, such as a water
heater.
7.8. Replace all fuel tank and container caps securely.
7.9. To prevent personal injury and property damage,
do the following:
- Always place fuel containers on the ground and
away from the vehicle before fuelling.
- Do not fill the fuel container(s) inside a vehicle or
on a truck or trailer bed.
- When practical, remove a fuel-powered the front
mower from the truck or trailer and refuel it with
its wheels on the ground.
- If it is not practical to do this, refuel the front
mower on a truck or trailer from a portable
container, not fuel dispenser nozzle.
- If you must use a fuel dispenser nozzle, keep the
nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or
fuel container opening until you have completed
fuelling.
8. MOUNTING AND DISMOUNTING OF THE
MOWER DRIVE SHAFT
The mower gear box is driven through a drive shaft with
universal joints from the front mower. When connecting
or disconnecting the shaft, follow the next instructions.
8.1. Lower the mower deck onto the ground, stop

parking brakes before mounting or dismounting
the drive shaft.
