4 ENGLISHGB SYMBOLS The following symbols can be found on the ma- chine to remind you of the care and attention that are required during use. The symbols mean: Warning! Read the instruction manual and the safety manual before using the machine. Warning! Do not insert your hands or feet under the cover when the machine is in operation. Warning! Watch out for discarded objects. Keep on- lookers away. Warning! Before starting repair work, remove the spark plug cable from the spark plug. INSTALLATION DECK ARMS 1. Remove the locking pin and the outermost flat washer from the machine’s steering knuckle. 2. Thread the left and right deck arms onto the ma- chine’s steering knuckle. Place the flat washer on the steering knuckle and secure with the locking pin (fig. 1). CUTTING DECK 1. Raise the deck arms and place the cutting deck in front of the machine. Set to cutting height 5. 2. Fold down the deck arms over the cutting deck so that the pins in the deck go through the holes in the deck arms (fig. 2). 3. Install the left and right deck arms in the cutting deck’s front two corners. Use the existing screw and locking nut (fig. 3). Tighten the locking nut, but not so hard that the arm is totally secured. 4. Force the V-belt onto the machine’s pulley A (fig. 4). 5. Tension the belt with belt idler B. The belt idler should be on the inside of the belt and pull out to the left (viewed from the driver’s position). 6. Raise rear edge of the deck so that the deck can be secured with the locking pin on both sides (fig. 5). 7. Hook the elevating chain’s upper S-hook into the machine’s lifting arm (fig. 6). The ratio between the chain and spring is pre-set for optimum ground pressure. If necessary, the po- sition of the spring can be changed. SETTING In order for the deck to cut evenly and attractively, it has to be correctly adjusted: 1. Make sure the air pressure in the tyres is correct: Front: 0.4 bar (6 psi). Rear: 1.2 bar (17 psi). 2. Place the machine on a level floor. Undo the screws (fig. 7). 3. Adjust so that the front and rear edge of the cov- er are the same height above the floor. 4a. Cutting normal length grass: Adjust the deck so that the front and rear edge of the cover are the same height above the floor. This position gives the best Mulch effect, i.e. the grass is cut up best. 4 After setting, tighten the screws properly. USE CUTTING HEIGHT The cutting height can be varied between a number of fixed positions, from 30 to 80 mm. Note: Stated cutting heights apply when the ma- chine is on a firm surface. CUTTING TIPS For optimum Mulch effect, follow these tips: - cut frequently. - run the engine at full revs. - keep the underside of the cutting deck clean. - use sharp blades. - do not cut wet grass. - cut twice (with different cutting heights) if the grass is long.
5 ENGLISHGB SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE PREPARATIONS Unless otherwise stated, all service and mainte- nance must be carried out on a stationary machine when the engine is not running. Prevent the machine from rolling by al- ways applying the parking brake. Prevent unintentional starting of the engine by always stopping the engine, disconnecting the spark plug cable from the spark plug and earthing it. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery. LUBRICATION The deck arms are equipped with grease nipples (fig.8). Lubricate these after every 25 hours of operation (or at least once per season) with universal grease. MAINTENANCE TIPS To make cleaning and maintenance easier, the cut- ting deck can be folded up: 1. Set the cutting height setting to cutting height 5. 2. Remove the locking pins and release the rear edge of the deck (fig. 5). 3. Secure the tensioning arm on the hook. 3. Force the belt off the machine’s pulley. 7. Fold up the deck to the vertical position (fig. 9). CLEANING After each use, the underside of the cutting deck should be rinsed off. If the grass has dried solid, scrape clean the underside. If necessary, touch up the underside with paint to prevent corrosion. REPLACING BLADES Wear protective gloves when changing blade(s) to avoid cutting yourself. Ensure that the blades are always sharp. This pro- duces the best cutting results. Always check the blade(s) after a collision. If the blade system has been damaged, defective parts should be replaced.Always use genuine spare parts. Non- genuine spare parts can entail a risk of injury, even if they fit the machine. The cutting system comprises two blade bars with two replaceable blades Y (fig. 11). When replacing blades, both should be replaced to avoid imbal- ance. Install the new blades. Tighten screws V and W properly. Tightening torque: V - 9.8 Nm, W - 24 Nm. In the event of a powerful collision, the blades may be bent out. Undo the locking nut X and fold back the blade. Install a new genuine break bolt V. Tighten the locking nuts X and Z. POSITIVE DRIVE BELT Both blades are powered inside the deck by a pos- itive drive belt. If one of the blades has struck a solid object (e.g. a stone), the belt tension may be altered. This can lead to the positive drive belt ‘over-meshing’ which, in the long term, can damage the blades. Following a powerful collision, always check that both blades are at right-an- gles to each other (fig. 10). The working areas of the blades overlap each oth- er. If the blades’ position in relation to each other has been altered, there is a considerable risk of the blades striking each other. This can entail serious damage to the cutting deck. If this is the case, take the machine and cutting deck to a service workshop for repair and inspection.
