● 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 15.1)
● Check the safety devices before each
use. (Ö 12.)
The ride-on mower must not be
operated if safety devices are missing
or damaged or have been bypassed or
modified.
13.1 Filling the fuel tank
Maximum tank capacity:
9litres
Recommendation:
Fresh good quality fuel, please
refer to the engine instruction manual for
information on fuel grade (octane rating).
– Unleaded petrol.
Filling procedure:
● Stop the engine and allow it to cool
down (warm to the touch). (Ö 13.3)
● Engage the parking brake. (Ö 8.14)
Pour in the fuel slowly and carefully. In
order to prevent the fuel from overflowing,
filling should be performed in several
stages.
Remove the funnel between the individual
filling operations in order to visually check
the filling level in the tank.
The more fuel has already been filled into
the tank, the smaller the filling quantities
should be for each filling operation. To give
the fuel room to expand, never fill the fuel
tank past the lower edge of the filler neck.
Tank cap:
Unscrew the tank cap (1) (note direction of
arrow) and remove.
● Fill the fuel into the tank using a suitable
funnel (not included in standard
equipment) (see Filling procedure).
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.
13. 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.
To prevent fuel spillage, use a
suitable funnel (not included in
standard equipment) when filling
up.
