13.3. Checking the brake
1 - Remove the cover and uncouple the conveyor.
2 - Check that the thickness of the friction pad (8)
is not less than 2 mm at its thinnest point.
3 - Make sure that the control lever (3) moves freely
and remove any remains of grass and mud.
4 - Reassemble the conveyor and the cover.
5 - Start the motor and bring it to operating tem-
perature; release the lawnmower lever and check
that the engine stops within 3 seconds.
6 - If it stops after 3 seconds, replace the entire
assembly [
13.4], because the spring or the
friction pad (8) are not capable of ensuring com-
pliance with braking times.
WARNING! Never return the lawnmower
to your client without checking brake ef-
ciency.
