HOW TO USE THE MACHINE DANGER!REMEMBER THAT THE USER IS ALWAYS RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGE AND INJURIES TO OTHERS. Before using the machine, read the safety requirements shown in chapter 2, paying particular attention to driving and cutting on slopes. It is the user's responsibility to assess the potential risk of the area where work is to be carried out, as well as to take all the necessary steps to ensure safe working, particularly on slopes or rough, slippery and unstable ground. This machine must not be used on slopes greater than 10° (17%). If the machine is likely to be used mostly on sloping ground (max. 10°), fit counterweights (supplied on request) to the front part of the frame to improve stability at the front and reduce the chance of tipping up. IMPORTANT in chapter 4. ! All references regarding the positions of controls are shown 5. 1 DIRECTIONS BEFORE STARTING SEAT ADJUSTMENT The seat is held by four screws (1) which have to be loosened for changing the position of the seat which is done by sliding it along the slots in the base. When you have got in a comfortable position, fully tighten the four screws. 1 1 REFUELLING NOTE The oil and fuel to use are indicated in the engine booklet. To reach the oil level dipstick, lift up the seat and open the hatchway beneath. EN 18 HOW TO USE THE MACHINE MAX MIN With engine stopped, check its oil level which must be between the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick. Refuel using a funnel, but do not completely fill the tank. The tank's capacity is about 4 litres. DANGER!Refuelling should be carried out in an open or well ventilated area with engine stopped. Always remember that petrol fumes are inflammable. DO NOT TAKE FLAMES TO THE TANK MOUTH TO VERIFY ITS CONTENTS AND DO NOT SMOKE WHEN REFUELLING. IMPORTANT Do not drip petrol onto the plastic parts to avoid ruining them. In the event of accidental leaks, rinse immediately with water. ! TYRE PRESSURE Having the correct tyre pressure is essential for keeping the cutting deck horizontal and thus achieving uniform mowing. Unscrew the valve protection cap and connect the valves to a compressed air line with a gauge.
