MOVEMENT, in order not to block the collector
channel, and disengage the blades, which will stop
the audible signal.
To empty the grass-catcher,
– press the button (1) which releases the emptying
system, and bring the button back so that it is
held down;
– pull out the lever (2) and lift the grass-catcher;
– close up the grass-catcher so that it hooks onto
the pawl (3).
At times the audible warning
may be heard when the blades are engaged
even when the grass-catcher has been emptied.
This is due to grass cuttings left on the sensor of
the micro-switch. To stop the signal, disengage
the blades and then immediately engage them
again.
Always keep the sensor (4) free of grass-cuttings.
Summary of the conditions whereby the safety devices permit or stop work
The safety devices work in two ways:
– by preventing the engine from starting if all the safety requirements have not
been met;
– stopping the engine if even just one of the safety requirements is lacking.
To start the engine it will be necessary that:
– the transmission is in “neutral”;
– the blades are not engaged;
– the operator is seated or the parking brake is engaged.
The engine stops when:
– the operator leaves his seat when the blades are engaged;
– the operator leaves his seat when the transmission is not in “neutral”;
– the operator leaves his seat with the transmission in “neutral” but without enga-
ging the parking brake;
– the grass-catcher is lifted or the stone-guard is removed when the blades are
engaged
The table below shows various operating conditions,
highlighting
why the safety
device shuts down the engine.
