BEFORE STARTING, ALWAYS CHECK IF THE MACHINE IS IDLING AND IF THE CLUTCH HAND-LEVER
IS LIFTED AND LOCKED WITH THE PUSH-BUTTON (Pict. 8 Ref. "A" and "B").
BEFORE STARTING, THE BAR MUST BE DISABLED BY USING ITS COMMAND (Pict. 8 Ref. "D").
The main function of the lever Ref. "A" Pict. 9 is to turn off the motor when releasing your hands from the steering handles. Do
not ever tie the "MOTOR STOP" lever "A" to the handlebar knob. Before you start to mow, check that the motor shuts off with
the "STOP" lever raised. MOTOR STOP: lever "A" is squeezed; MOTOR START : lever "A" is lowered.
In case of danger the machine will immediately stop after releasing with the left
hand the "stop engine safety device".
Before you start mowing, oil the cutting blade, then start the motor as follows:
•
The release of the wheels and bar clutches should be done with the engine running at low speed.
•
Engaging the transmission to the wheels and the cutting bar by means of the clutch lever must be carried out with the motor
at a middle r.p.m. and by slowly releasing the lever.
•
When starting to mow, position the accelerator lever at 3/4 or at "MAX" to ensure
adequate power.
•
When mowing along a wall or the edge of a sidewalk, be careful to keep a safety distance
so that the blade does not suffer impact. If not, the cutting bar may undergo damage.
•
When moving forward or back with the mower running, first squeeze the clutch lever
which will block the bar, then squeeze the wheel release lever and move as needed.
•
The handles can be adjusted in height and sideways (Pict. 10 Ref. "a") by a multi-toothed
device.
•
You can adjust the cutting height of the grass by the skids on the cutter bar (see
instructions on the bars)
•
To regulate the motor, read the manual on the motor under "REGULATIONS".
•
ATTENTION: DO NOT LEAVE THE MACHINE RUNNING WHEN NOT IN OPERATION
For changing the oil and other maintenance operations on the motor (spark plugs, air filter, regulations), refer to the motor
manual provided.
Make a regular check of the oil level in the gearbox with the cap (Pict. 12 Ref. "b") and topping up if necessary.
Change the oil completely every 200 hours. Empty the gearbox of oil by unscrewing the oil drain plug (Pict. 5 Ref. "C")
Allow oil to flow out completely. Then, screw down the plug completely, and fill with new oil of the recommended type,
unscrewing breather plug (Ref. "A" Fig 12), up to the correct level - see the screw Ref. "B" Fig 12.
If the grass is not cut in a satisfactory manner despite the adjustments (see Pict. 11), the blade must be sharpened or
replaced. Follow the instructions on the E.S.M. maintenance sheet.
For any mechanical repair, especially during the warranty period, we
recommend to go to a specialised repair shop of the dealer.
For transporting convenience, the handles can be disassembled by means
of the two knobs (Pict. 10 Ref. "a"). The same is recommended for the cutting
bar, which is easily disassembled by after moving the locking knob (see Pict. 5).
Always use gloves and apply the protective strip to the blade.
Regularly check that screws are tight. Pay special attention to the screws
fastening the bar to its support.
Once a year, be sure to check oil level in the bar gearbox (see Pict. 13).
In the types with air filter in oil bath check the oil and clean the filter box
every 10 working hours (see Pict. 14).
