Safe Operation Practices

For Ride-On (Riding) Rotary Mower Machines

Training

Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the 1.

controls and the proper use of the equipment.

Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these 2.

instructions to use the mower. Local regulations may

restrict the age of the operator.

Never mow while people, especially children, or pets 3.

are nearby.

Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible 4.

for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or

their property.

Do not carry passengers. 5.

All drivers should seek and obtain professional 6.

and practical instruction. Such instruction should

emphasize:

the need for care and concentration when working a.

with ride-on machines;

control of a ride-on machine sliding on a slope will b.

not be regained by the application of the brake. The

main reasons for loss of control are:

insufficient wheel grip; t

being driven too fast; t

inadequate braking;t

the type of machine is unsuitable for its task; t

lack of awareness of the effect of ground t

conditions, especially slopes;

incorrect hitching and load distribution. t

Preparation

While mowing, always wear substantial footwear and 1.

long trousers. Do not operate the equipment when

barefoot or wearing open sandals.

Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to 2.

be used and remove all objects which may be thrown

by the machine.

WARNING – Petrol is highly flammable. 3.

Store fuel in containers specifically designed for a.

this purpose.

Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while b.

refuelling.

Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove c.

the cap of the fuel tank or add petrol while the

engine is running or when the engine is hot.

If petrol is spilled, do not attempt to start the d.

engine but move the machine away from the area

of spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition

until petrol vapours have dissipated.

Replace all fuel tanks and container caps securely. e.

Replace faulty silencers. 4.

Before using, always visually inspect to see that the 5.

blades, blade bolts and cutter assembly are not worn or

damaged. Replace worn or damaged blades and bolts

in sets to preserve balance.

On multi-blade machines, take care as rotating one 6.

blade can cause other blades to rotate.

Operation

Do not operate the engine in a confined space where 1.

dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.

Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light. 2.

Before attempting to start the engine, disengage all 3.

blade attachment clutches and shift into neutral.

Do not use on slopes of more than 10 degrees. 4.

Remember there is no such thing as a “safe” slope. 5.

Travel on grass slopes requires particular care. To

guard against overturning:

do not stop or start suddenly when going up or a.

downhill;

engage clutch slowly, always keep machine in gear, b.

especially when travelling downhill;

machine speeds should be kept low on slopes and c.

during tight turns;

stay alert for humps and hollows and other hidden d.

hazards;

never mow across the face of the slope, unless the e.

mower is designed for this purpose.

Before you add petrol, stop the engine and let the

engine cool for several minutes.

(Figure 9) Fill the fuel tank (A) to the FULL (B) position

with regular unleaded petrol. Do not use premium unleaded

petrol. Make sure the petrol is fresh and clean. Leaded petrol

will increase deposits and shorten the life of the valves.

Mowing and Bagging Tips

For a lawn to look better, check the cutting level of the 1.

mower housing. See authorized dealer.

For the mower housing to cut level, make sure the tires 2.

have the correct amount of air pressure.

Every time you use the unit, check the blade. If the 3.

blade is bent or damaged, immediately replace the

blade. Also, make sure the nut for the blade is tight.

Keep the blade(s) sharpened. Worn blades will cause 4.

the ends of the grass to turn brown.

Do not cut or bag grass that is wet. Wet grass will not 5.

discharge correctly. Let the grass dry before cutting.

Use the left side of the mower housing to trim near an 6.

object.

Discharge the cut grass onto the mowed area. The 7.

result is a more even discharge of cut grass.

When you mow large areas, start by turning to the right 8.

so that the cut grass will discharge away from shrubs,

fences, driveways, etc. After one or two rounds, mow in

the opposite direction making left turns until finished.

If the grass is very high, cut two times to decrease the 9.

load on the engine. First cut with the mower housing in

the highest position and then lower the mower housing

for the second cut.

For better engine performance and an even discharge 10.

of the cut grass, always operate the engine with the

throttle in FAST position.

When you use a bagger, operate the engine with the 11.

throttle in FAST position and the shift lever in first or

second gear.

For better cutting performance and a quality cut, mow 12.

with the shift lever in one of the slower speeds.

After each use, clean the bottom and top of the mower 13.

housing for better performance. Also, a clean mower

housing will help prevent a fire.

Check Tire Pressure

Check the air pressure in the tires. Tires with too much air

pressure will cause the unit to ride rough. Also, the wrong

air pressure will keep the mower housing from cutting level.

The correct air pressure is: Front Tires 0,97 BAR (14 PSI),

Rear Tires 0,69 BAR (10 PSI).

Maintenance Free Battery

Remove The Battery (Figure 7)

To charge or clean the battery (A), remove the battery (A)

Charge The Battery (Figure 7)

WARNING: When you charge the battery, do not

smoke. Keep the battery away from any sparks. The

fumes from the battery acid can cause an

explosion.

Before you charge the 1. battery (A), remove the

battery (A).

To charge the 2. battery (A), use a 12 volt battery charger.

Charge at a rate of 6 amperes for 1 hour.

Install the 3. battery (A).

WARNING: To prevent sparks, fasten the red cable

to the positive (+) terminal before you connect the

black cable.

Fasten the 4. red cable (E) to the positive (+) terminal

(D) with the fasteners as shown.

Fasten the 5. black cable (H) to the negative (-) terminal

with the fasteners as shown.

Storage

WARNING: Never store the unit (with fuel) in an

enclosed, ventilated structure. Fuel vapors can

travel to an ignition source (such as a furnace,

water heater, etc.) and cause an explosion. Fuel

vapor is also toxic to humans and animals.

When Storing Fuel Or Equipment With Fuel In Tank

t 4UPSFBXBZGSPNGVSOBDFTTUPWFTXBUFSIFBUFSTPS

appliances that have pilot lights or other ignition sources

because they can ignite fuel vapors.

Equipment

Battery life will be increased if it is removed. Put in a cool,

dry place and fully charged about once a month. If the

battery is left in the unit, disconnect the negative cable.

Fuel System

Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel

causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system or

on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh, use Briggs

& Stratton FUEL FIT® fuel stabilizer, available as a liquid

additive or a drip concentrate cartridge.

There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel

stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the engine

for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the fuel

system. The engine and fuel can then be stored up to 24

months.

If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel

stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container.

Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a

fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to

maintain freshness.

Engine Oil

While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil. See the

Engine Manual.
