recharged.
When jump leads are used for emergency starting, follow the
procedure below:
Connecting the jump leads
•
Connect each end of the red cable to the POSITIVE pole
(+) on each battery, exercise care not to short circuit any
of the ends against the chassis.
•
Connect one end of the black cable to the NEGATIVE pole
(-) on the fully charged battery.
•
Connect the other end of the black cable to a good
CHASSIS EARTH, away from the fuel tank and the
battery.
Remove the cables in the reverse order
•
The BLACK cable is removed from the chassis and then
the fully charged battery.
•
Finally the RED cable from both batteries.
Driving the Rider
1
Release the parking brake by first pressing down the
parking brake pedal and then releasing it.
2
Carefully press down one of the pedals until the required
speed is obtained. Pedal (1) is used to drive forwards, and
pedal (2) to drive backwards.
3
Select the required cutting height (1-10) with the cutting
height lever.
It is important that the air pressure in both front wheels is
equal, 60 kPa / 0,6 bar / 8.5 PSI, to produce an even
cutting height.
4
Press in the lock button on the lifting lever and lower the
cutting unit.
!
WARNING! Lead-acid batteries produce
explosive gases. Avoid sparks, open flames
and smoking close to batteries. Always wear
protective glasses in the vicinity of batteries.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Your Rider is equipped with a
12-volt system with negative earth. The other vehicle must
also have a 12-volt system with negative earth. Do not use
your Rider battery to start other vehicles.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The life span of the drive belts is increased significantly if
the engine runs at a low speed when the blades are
engaged. Therefore apply full throttle first when the cutting
unit has been moved to the mowing position.
