Always drive at a reasonable speed.
Use the machine with great care when
working near slopes, terraces, ditches and
embankments. In particular, ensure that
you maintain sufficient distance to such
danger areas.
Particular care must be taken at points of
poor visibility, bushes, trees and other
obstacles, behind which persons,
especially children, or animals may be
hidden.
Bring the ride-on mower to a standstill
immediately and stop the mowing blade if
someone moves into the area to be mown.
Always monitor the area in front of the
vehicle. Beware of obstacles, in order to
be able to evade them in time.
Before reversing, always check the area
behind the ride-on mower and, if present,
disengage the attachment. Never mow in
reverse, if it is not absolutely necessary.
When mowing in reverse, take particular
care and before beginning to mow,
thoroughly check the entire area behind
the ride-on mower.
When working together in a group, always
inform the others in advance of what you
intend to do. Maintain a safety distance!
The vehicle speed must be reduced before
each change of direction, so that the user
retains control of the machine at all times
and also that the ride-on mower cannot tip
over.
When operating near to roads and when
crossing roads, other road users must be
taken into account.
Take particular care when mowing near
roads, cycle paths and footpaths. Objects
which are thrown up by the mower can
cause severe injury and damage.
Only empty the grass catcher box from the
driver's seat.
Before emptying the grass catcher box,
always disengage the mowing blades and
wait until they have come to a standstill.
When operating the ride-on mower with
attachments, always follow the
instructions and safety regulations
supplied with the attachments.
Switch off the drive, stop the engine and
wait until the mowing blades have come to
a complete standstill, engage the parking
brake and remove the ignition key:
– when abandoning or when transporting
the machine.
– before remedying blockages, including
those in the discharge chute.
– before checking, cleaning or working on
the ride-on mower.
– if the mowing blades have hit an
obstacle.
Inspect the machine and the cutting tool
for damage and have any necessary
repairs performed before re-starting.
Additionally check the installation
position of the mowing blades on the
models RT 5112 Z, RT 6112 C,
RT 6112 ZL, RT 6127 ZL – the mowing
deck must not be engaged if the angle
of the blades relative to each other is
not as specified in the section "Mowing
blade maintenance". (Ö 15.13)
– if the machine begins to vibrate
excessively. It must be checked
immediately.
Stop the engine and wait until the mowing
blades have come to a complete standstill:
– Before filling with fuel.
– Before removing the grass catcher box.
– Before opening the engine hood.
Driving with cruise control:
Activating cruise control in the wet or
under adverse ground conditions as well
as when pulling loads increases the
accident risk.
When cruise control is switched off, the
ride-on mower brakes abruptly.
Cruise control is an aid that provides
assistance when driving. The
responsibility for the driving speed and for
timely braking always lies with the user.
Cruise control does not react to obstacles
or to altered ground conditions. If an
obstacle cannot be avoided at the set
driving speed, cruise control must be
switched off.
Due to the increased risk of accident,
cruise control must not be used:
– In situations which do not permit driving
at constant speed (e.g. adverse ground
conditions due to wet conditions or on
slopes).
– On slippery surfaces. The wheels may
lose their grip and the vehicle can skid.
– If visibility is poor (e.g. due to fog, heavy
rain or at night).
Working on slopes:
Slopes are one of the major causes of
accidents in which control over the ride-on
mower is lost causing it to tip over, which
can result in severe or even fatal injuries.
There is no "safe" slope! Driving on grassy
slopes requires special concentration.
For safety reasons, the machine must not
be used on slopes with an inclination of
more than 10° (17.6 %). Risk of injury!
