Connect the black jump lead first
to the negative terminal (–) of the
donor battery. Connect the other
clip to the frame of the engine
block of the tractor with the flat
battery (as far away from the
battery as possible).
Note
If the donor battery is installed in a
vehicle, this vehicle must not be
started during the jump starting
process.
Start the tractor with the flat
battery and actuate the parking
brake.
Disconnect the jump leads in
reverse sequence.
Tyre pressure
Warning
Never exceed the maximum
permitted tyre pressure (see tyre
wall). When pumping up the tyres,
do not stand in front of or over the
tyre.
Excessive tyre pressure reduces
the service life of the tyres. Always
check the tyre pressure before
driving.
After 5 operating hours
First engine oil change. See
engine manual for subsequent
intervals.
Use the oil channel or (optional)
quick oil drain (Fig. 16).
After 10 operating hours
Lubricate all rotating and bearing
points of the accelerator pedal
and brake pedal with several
drops of light oil.
Clean battery poles and
terminals.
Every 25 operating hours
Lubricate all blade shafts,
tensioning pulleys and
tensioning pulley holders via the
grease nipples using grease type
251H EP. Have this work carried
out by a service centre.
Lubricate the wheel bearings and
front wheel axes with 251H EP
type grease applied to their
respective grease nipples.
Remove grass and dirt around
the blade shafts beneath the
covers. Have this work carried
out by a service centre.
Lubricate the steering with
grease Type 251H EP via the
grease nipples on the steering
support. Have this work carried
out by a service centre.
Every 50 operating hours
Have dirt and grass remnants
removed from the drive gear by
a repair shop.
If required
Charge the battery
If you are not using the unit for
a prolonged period, it is recommen-
ded to take the battery out of the
unit and charge it before storage,
as well as every 2 months during
storage, and before starting up the
unit again.
Check the battery’s charged state
with a voltmeter. When the charged
state is less than 12.6 V (DC)
recharge the battery (max 12 V
at 6 A) with a battery charger in
accordance with the table.
Note
Follow the instructions in the
operating manual for your battery
charger.
Replacing fuses
Replace defective fuses only with
fuses of the same amperage.
Hydraulic expansion vessel
Fig. 17
Is used as an expansion vessel for
the hydraulic fluid during operation.
Maintenance and inspection only
by a specialist company during
annual maintenance.
Notes
– Do not check until the hydraulic
oil has completely cooled down.
– The oil level should be at least
between the base of the tank and
the mark (1).
Once per season
Lubricate all rotating and bearing
points (operating lever, height
adjustment of the cutter deck ...)
with several drops of light oil.
Clean the spark plug and check
the gap between the electrodes
or replace the plug. See engine
handbook.
The rear axles must be lubricated
with a special-purpose (water-
repellent) grease at a specialised
garage.
Have the cutting blade
sharpened or replaced in
a specialist workshop.
Note
Regularly check (when visiting your
workshop) the condition of the
mower deck V-belt.
