Intended use
This machine was designed and built to cut
grass.
The use of special attachments provided for
by the Manufacturer as original equipment or
which may be purchased separately, allows this
work to be done in various operating modes,
illustrated in this manual or the instructions that
accompany the single attachments.
Likewise, the intended use can be extended to
include other functions by applying supplemen -
tary attachments (if provided for by the Manu -
facturer), abiding by the restrictions and condi -
tions indicated in the instructions accompanying
the attachment.
User types
This machine is intended for use by consumers,
i.e. non-professional operators. The machine is
intended for “DIY” use only.
Improper use
Any other usage not in keeping with the above-
mentioned ones may be hazardous and harm
persons and/or damage things. Examples of im -
proper use may include, but are not limited to:
– transporting people, children or animals on
the machine or on a trailer;
– towing or pushing loads without the use of the
specified attachment for towing;
– use of the machine for riding over unstable,
slippery, icy, stony, rough, marshy ground or
puddles that do not allow the consistency of
the ground to be assessed;
– using the cutting means on surfaces other
than grass.
– use of the machine for leaf or debris collec -
tion;
Improper use of the machine will invalidate the
warranty, relieve the Manufacturer from all li -
abilities, and the user will consequently be liable
for all and any damage or injury to himself or
others.

The machine is composed of a series of main
components that have the following functions:
11. Cutting-means assembly: this is the cas-
ing that houses the rotating cutting means.
12. Cutting means: these are what cut the
grass; the fins at the ends help convey the
cut grass towards the collector channel.
13. Collector channel: this is the part con-
necting the Cutting-means assembly to the
grass catcher.
14. Grass catcher: as well as collecting the
grass cuttings, this is also a safety element
that stops any objects drawn up by the cut -
ting devices from being hurled away from
the machine.
15. Side discharge chute (if provided)
prevents any objects collected by the cut -
ting means from being hurled away by the
machine.
16. Engine: this moves the cutting means and
drives the wheels. Its specifications and
regulations for use are described in a spe-
cific manual.
17. Battery: provides the energy for starting the
engine. Its specifications and regulations for
use are described in a specific manual.
18. Driving seat: this is where the machine
operator sits. It has a sensor connected to
safety devices for detecting the presence of
the operator.
19. Warning and safety labels: these give
reminders on the main regulations for work -
ing in safety.
