Brush mower agria 8000 11
Startup
Do not start the engine in closed rooms,
the exhaust fumes contain carbon mon-
oxide, which is very toxic if inhaled!
Before starting the engine, set all operat-
ing elements to neutral or idle position.
Do not step in front of the machine or
the add-on device to start the engine.
Operation
Never leave the operator's position at
the steering bar while working!
Never adjust operator bars while work is
in progress – risk of accident!
For all work with the device, especially
when turning, the machine opera-
tor must maintain the distance from the
device shown by the bars!
Riding on the implement during opera-
tion or in transport is not permitted.
If any blockages occur on the cutting
unit, stop the engine, take off the ignition
plug or ignition key, and clean the cut-
ting unit with a suitable tool. There may
be tension in the drive train as a result of
the blockage, which is why you should
resolve the blockage carefully.
In the event of any damage to
the machine or the add-on device, shut
down the engine immediately and have
the damage repaired!
In the event of any malfunctions to the
steering, stop and park the machine
immediately. Have the fault resolved
without delay.
If there is a risk of slipping on a slope,
have a second person who holds the
machine with a bar or a rope. The at-
tendant must be located above
the machine at a safe distance from the
work equipment.
Work across the slope along contour
lines if possible. If possible, turn the
machine in uphill direction.
Finishing work
Never leave the machine unsupervised
while the engine is running.
Switch the engine off before leaving the
machine. Then close the fuel tap(s) (if
present).
Take care not to park the hot machine in
the blazing sun.
Protect the machine against unauthor-
ized use. In ignition key models, remove
the ignition key; otherwise, remove the
spark plug connector.
Mowing equipment
When handled improperly, the sharp
edges of the mower knives can cause
significant injuries. Always wear protec-
tive gloves when you work on the
knives.
When unscrewing the fastening screws
for changing the blades, ensure that the
screwing movements are away from the
cutting edges.
Wear protective goggles and protective
gloves when you grind the knives.
Maintenance and cleaning
Only trained specialist personnel, who
can carry out professional maintenance
and repair, may carry out this work.
Do not carry out maintenance and clean-
ing with the engine running.
When working on the engine always
remove the ignition key (if present) and
also the spark plug connector in the
case of petrol engines.
Protective devices and tools that are
subject to wear and tear must be regu-
larly inspected and replaced if neces-
sary!
Damaged cutting tools must be re-
placed!
When replacing cutting tools use suita-
ble tools and protective gloves.
