Workspace
• Does the ground have enough bearing capacity?
• How rough is the terrain? Are there sharp projections on the ground that could damage the mower and especially
its tires?
• Are there obstacles in the area, such as potholes, hidden debris, wood, tree stumps, stones, wires, glass and
other similar objects?
• Is there enough space to maneuver the mower safely?
• Is there a likelihood that other persons or mowers will enter the work area when the mower is operating?
• Does the climbing ability of the mower match the working environment?
Mower driving path
• What is the strength of the ground and will the ground provide the mower with enough strength-load capacity for
wheel engagement and braking?
• How steep are all the slopes when driving up / down / across? Driving across the slope is particularly dangerous,
are you as the operator endangering yourself or other people in the surroundings?
Weather
• What is the ground condition where the mower is driving?
• Is it raining or will it rain? The same terrain, which is dry and smooth when dry, can be uneven and slippery in rain
so it does not provide the same conditions for wheel engagement, braking and steering.
3.2 MOWER CHECK UP
The following checks must be carried out after each prolonged break
with the mower. They are also
recommended for longer continuous work with the mower, i.e. to stop the mower from time to time and carry out
the check.
Control operations concern the readiness of the mower to operate and ensure the safety while working with it. If
defects or malfunctions occur during the inspection, they must be repaired and corrected.
1. CLEANLINESS OF THE MOWER
•
Remove dirt and debris, especially near the joints, pins and near the exhaust.
•
Clean all safety labels with instructions. Replace any missing or unreadable labels.
•
Perform a thorough inspection to identify any defects or deficiencies.
2. OPERATING FLUIDS
•
Check the engine and hydraulic oil levels
•
Check the fuel level (if less than 20% of the tank is in the tank, refuel immediately)
•
Check for leaks underneath the mower
•
Ensure that all filler caps are properly installed and closed
3. TIRES
•
Check the tire pressures and their overall conditions
WARNING
