FIRST OPERATION
The lawn tractor may only be put into operation when
the assembly has been completed.
Safety systems
The lawn tractor is fitted with 4 safety contacts which are operated
by
a)
the driver's seat
b)
the grass box and
c)
two foot pedals.
The engine can only be started if
the driver is sitting on the driver's seat, the brake has been
operated and the mowing appliance has been switched off.
The engine is automatically switched off if
a)
the driver gets off without operating the brake
b)
the driver gets off with the mowing appliance still running

Filling with engine oil and fuel.
Opening the bonnet:
1.
Put your hands into the ventilation slots of the bonnet.
2.
Gently pull the bonnet in the direction of the steering
wheel and lift it up until it makes contact with the
bumper.
Pour engine oil in before the first operation
–
see operating instructions of the engine manufacturer.
Regularly check the oil level.
Fuel:
standard petrol - lead-free.
TAKE CARE WHEN POURING FUEL IN
Only fill the petrol tank in the open. Do not smoke. Do not
pour in petrol when the engine is running or hot.
Use a suitable funnel attachment or feeder funnel to pour
in petrol so that no fuel can be spilt on to engine, the
housing or on the lawn. If petrol is spilt, do not start the
engine. Remove the mower from the area contaminated
with petrol. The spilt petrol must be sucked or wiped off the
engine and the housing with a cloth.
No attempts at ignition may be made until the vapours
have disappeared.
Tyre pressure
Check the tyre pressure at regular intervals.
Examine the precise air pressure on the tyre.
1 PSI = 0.07 bar
The tyre pressure can be checked without any difficulties by using a
standard foot-pump.
Starter battery
As a matter of principle, the starter battery is charged ex works. Should
starting problems nevertheless occur, the battery must be charged
before the first operation of the lawn tractor.
During the operation, the starter battery is charged by the engine. Under
normal conditions, re-charging will only be necessary after longer
periods without use (longer than 3 months).
Charging the starter battery: see "Maintenance and Service".
We recommend charging this maintenance-free and gas-tight
battery with a charging device specifically suited for this (can be
purchased from specialist dealers).
If a different charging device is used, the charging current may not
exceed 5 A and the charging voltage 14.4 V. If there is a higher
charging voltage, there is a danger of the starter battery exploding.
The starter battery is recyclable.
Used and defective starter batteries must not be disposed of via
domestic refuse. Your dealer, the manufacturer of the device or the local
battery collection points (pay attention to the local directives) will assure
proper disposal of these batteries.
