7 STARTING AND DRIVING
7.1
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Always check that the oil level in the en-
gine is correct. This is especially impor-
tant when working on slopes (see 9.5).
Be very careful when mowing on
slopes: do not make sudden starts or
brake, do not use the machine cross-
wise, always move from top to bottom
or from bottom to top.
Engage the parking brake when park-
ing the machine.
The machine must not be used on
slopes of over 10°, regardless of the
mowing direction.
Reduce speed on slopes and sharp
turns to avoid overturning or losing
control of the machine.
When driving at full speed, do not fully
turn the steering wheel. The machine
could tip over.
Keep hands and feet away from the
articulated steering joint and seat sup-
port. There is a risk of crushing inju-
ries.
7.2
COMBINED ATTACHMENT USE
For the combined use of attachments,
see the "TABLE FOR THE CORRECT
COMBINATION OF ATTACHMENTS" in
the "0 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION TA-
BLE" section
7.3
REFUELLING (19)
Always use unleaded petrol. Do not
mix petrol with oil.
For tank capacity, see ""0 TECHNICAL SPECIFI-
CATION TABLE"
To refuel:
1.
Unscrew the tank closure cap and remove it
(fig. 19.A).
2.
Refuel being careful not to completely fill the
tank. Leave some space (corresponding at
least to the entire filler neck + 1 - 2 cm at the
16

top of the tank) so that, when the petrol heats
up, it can expand without overflowing.
3.
Close the fuel cap securely after refuelling
and clean away any spills.
Do not drip petrol onto the plastic
parts to avoid ruining them. In the
event of accidental leaks, rinse imme-
diately with water. The warranty does
not cover for damage to plastic parts
of the bodywork or the engine caused
by petrol.
NOTE! Fuel is perishable and should
not remain in the tank for more than 30
days.
Environmentally friendly fuels such as alkylate
petrol can be used. The composition of these
petrols has a minor impact on people and the
environment.
There are no reported negative effects related
to their use. However, there are types of alkylate
gasoline on the market for which it is not possible
to give precise indications regarding their use.
For further information, please consult the
instructions and data provided by the alkylate
petrol manufacturer.
In use prior to storage for a long pe-
riod, (e.g. winter season), fill the tank
with a quantity of fuel sufficient to
complete that last use.
In fact, before storing the machine, the
fuel tank must be completely emptied
(see 11).
7.4
CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL
(21)
The machine is delivered with a full tank of oil in
the engine.
Before starting the machine, check the
oil level in the engine.
To check/top up the engine oil see 9.5.
7.5

LEVEL
