4) Replace faulty silencers.
5) Before use, always visually inspect to see that the blade, blade bolts and cutter
assembly are not worn or damaged. Replace the worn or damaged blade and bolts in
sets
to preserve the balance.
C) OPERATION
1) Do not start the engine in a confined space where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes
can collect.
2) Mow only in daylight or good artificial light.
3) Before starting the engine, disengage the blades and shift into neutral.
4) Do not use on slopes of more than 10° (17%).
5) Remember there is no such thing as a ''safe'' slope.
Travelling on grass slopes requires particular care. To guard against overturning:
-- - do not stop or start suddenly when going up or downhill;
-- - engage the drive slowly and always keep the machine in gear, especially when
travelling downhill;
-- - machine speeds should be kept low on slopes and during tight turns;
-- - stay alert for humps and hollows and other hidden hazards;
-- - never mow across the face of the slope.
6) Stop the blade from rotating before crossing surfaces other than grass.
7) Never use the machine with damaged guards, or without the safety protective
devices in place.
8) Do not change the engine governor settings or over speed the engine. Operating
the engine at excessive speed can increase the risk of personal injury.
9) Before leaving the driving seat:
-- - disengage the blades and lower the attachments;
-- - go into neutral and apply the parking brake;
-- - stop the engine and remove the ignition key (in the electric start models).
10) Disengage the blade, stop the engine and remove the ignition key (in the
electric start models):
-- - before clearing blockages or unclogging chutes;
-- - before cleaning, checking or working on the machine;
-- - after striking a foreign object. Inspect the machine for any damage and make repairs
before restarting and operating the equipment;
-- - If the machine starts to vibrate abnormally (inspect it immediately).
11) Disengage the blade when transporting or whenever it is not in use.
12) Stop the engine and disengage the blade:
-- - before refueling;
-- - before removing the grass-catcher.
13) Reduce the throttle setting before stopping the engine.
