- Before starting any maintenance or repair works, thoroughly reacquaint yourself with all
instructions, restrictions and recommendations in this user's manual.
- Always remove the key from the ignition and disconnect the spark plug cables before
performing any cleaning, maintenance or repairs.
- When working use suitable work clothing and work footwear. Use suitable gloves when
handling a mowing blade or for activities where there is a risk of cuts.

Dispose of used oil, fuel or other hazardous substances and materials in accordance
environmental protection regulations in force.

6.2.1 BEFORE STARTING WORK

INSPECTION OF TYRE PRESSURE
Maintain the prescribed tyre pressure and check it regularly. Maintaining the prescribed tyre pressure
is important for even mowing. Different pressure values may cause difficulty in driving, or even loss of
control over the machine.
The air pressure in the front and rear tyres must be in the range 80 - 140 KPa, whilst the differences
between individual tyres may be ± 10 KPa.
INSPECTION OF THE OIL LEVEL IN THE ENGINE
Park the riding mower on a horizontal surface. Open the hood and unscrew the cap of the filling opening.
Screw out the oil dipstick, wipe it dry, reinsert it and screw in. Then again screw it out and take the oil
level reading.
The oil level must be between the two marks on the dipstick. If it is not, fill up with motor oil so that it
reaches the "FULL" mark.
Further details about checking and filling of oil are included in a separate user's manual
supplied by the engine's manufacturer.
INSPECTION OF CABLES AND BOLT CONNECTIONS
Visually inspect the condition of cables and manually check the tightness of bolt connections.
INSPECTION OF WORKING ORDER OF BRAKES
Check that the brakes work properly. Proceed as follows:
Park the machine on an even surface and turn off the engine.
Step on the brake pedal and engage the parking brake.
Using the by-pass lever disengage the rear wheel drive.
Try to push the machine forward. If the rear wheels rotate, then the brakes need to be serviced.
Contact an authorised service centre to have them adjusted.

6.2.2 AFTER FINISHING WORK

CONFIGURING THE MACHINE
After finishing mowing, elevate the mowing deck to the highest position and disable the drive for the
mowing blades.
Turn off the ignition, step on the brake pedal and secure the machine in position with the parking brake.
On machines, where present, close the fuel supply.
CLEANING THE MACHINE
Remove all dirt and grass remains from the surface of the tractor, the ejection chute and the mowing
deck.
Thoroughly clean the textile sack of the grass catcher. When it is clogged with grass, the ability of the
machine to fill the grass catcher is reduced.
