HOW TO USE THE MACHINE
damaging the lawn if the ground is uneven.
The higher position excludes this possibility.
To change the position, unscrew and remove the pin
(1) then reposition the wheel (2) in the upper and
lower hole of the wale shown on the figure.
This work is to be done to all
four wheels, WITH THE ENGINE OFF AND THE
BLADES DISENGAGED.
To start cutting:
– put the accelerator into the «FAST» position;
– bring the cutting deck to the highest position;
– engage the blades (
☛
4.9);
– start moving forwards onto the grass area very gradually and with particular caution,
as already described;
– adjust the forward speed and the cutting height (
☛
4.10) according to the lawn con-
dition (height, density and dampness of the grass).
When cutting on sloping ground, the forward speed must be
reduced to ensure safe conditions (
☛
1.2 - 5.5).
In any case, the speed should always be lowered if you note a reduction in engine
speed, since a forward speed that is too fast compared to the amount of grass being
cut will never mow the grass well.
Disengage the blades and put the cutting deck in the highest position whenever you
need to get past an obstacle.

MPTYING THE GRASS
-
CATCHER
Do not let the grass-catcher become too full as this may block the collector channel.
When the grass-catcher is full there is an intermittent audible warning.
At this point:
– lower the engine speed;
– go into neutral (N) (
☛
4.22 or 4.32/33) and stop forward movement;
– engage the parking brake on slopes;
– disengage the blades (
☛
4.7) and the audible signal will stop;
Emptying the grass-catcher can only be done with the blades
disengaged, otherwise the engine stops.
