To start the engine, the following
conditions must always be fulfilled:
– the mowing deck must be disengaged,
– the brake pedal must be pressed or the
parking brake engaged.
The engine is switched off if the user
– leaves the driver's seat with the mowing
deck engaged,
– lifts the grass catcher box or removes
the deflector (special accessory) with
the mowing deck engaged,
– leaves the driver's seat without
engaging the parking brake.
Integrated blade run-down brake:
Following disengagement, the mowing
blades come to a standstill after
5 seconds at the latest.
To check the integrated blade run-down
brake, measure the duration of the wind
noise following disengagement using a
stopwatch.
If this duration exceeds 5 seconds: consult
a STIHL specialist dealer.
● Familiarise yourself with the controls on
the machine before using it. (Ö 8.)
● Before operating the machine, inspect
the maintenance schedule and carry
out all relevant maintenance
operations. (Ö 14.1)
● Check the safety devices before each
use. (Ö 11.)
The ride-on mower must not be
operated if safety devices are missing
or damaged or have been bypassed or
modified.
12.1 Filling the fuel tank
Maximum tank capacity:
6litres
Fuel recommendation:
Unleaded petrol; fresh, good quality fuel.
Please consult the engine instruction
manual for details on the fuel quality
(octane rating).
Unscrew and remove tank cap (1).
● Stop the engine and allow it to cool
down (warm to the touch). (Ö 12.3)
● Engage the parking brake. (Ö 8.10)
● Slowly and carefully fill the fuel into the
tank using a suitable funnel (not
included in standard equipment).
In order to prevent the fuel from
overflowing, filling should be performed
in several stages. Check the filling level
in the tank visually on the tank display
between the individual filling
operations.
The more fuel has already been filled
into the tank, the smaller the filling
quantities should be for each filling
operation.
Note
Following engagement of the
mowing deck, the mowing blades
turn and a wind noise is audible.
The run-on time corresponds to the
duration of the wind noise following
disengagement. This can be
measured using a stopwatch.
12. Operating the machine
Risk of injury!
Carefully read and observe the
entire section "For your safety"
before operating the machine.
(Ö 4.)
For safety reasons, the machine
must not be used on slopes with an
inclination of more than 10°
(17.6%).
A slope inclination of 17.6%
corresponds to a vertical height
increase of 17.6 cm for a 100 cm
horizontal distance.
