Carefully inspect the complete area on
which the machine is to be used and
remove any stones, sticks, wires, bones
and other foreign objects which could be
thrown up by the machine. Obstacles (e.g.
tree stumps, roots) can be easily
overlooked in long grass.
For this reason, mark all foreign objects
(obstacles) which are hidden in the lawn
and cannot be removed before
commencing work with the machine.
Defective and all other worn or damaged
parts must be removed before using the
machine. Replace any illegible or
damaged danger signs and warnings on
the machine. Your VIKING specialist has a
supply of replacement stickers and all the
other spare parts.
Never use the machine with damaged
safety devices or with safety devices
removed.
The screwed-on discharge port (discharge
chute on mowing deck) must always be
securely fastened to the mowing deck. It
must not be damaged and, if necessary, it
must be replaced by a technician.
The braking function must be checked
before each use. (
Before each use, check whether:
– the cutting tool and the entire cutting
unit (mowing blade, blade clutch, blade
brake, retaining pin, mowing deck
housing) are in good condition.
Particularly check for secure fastening,
damage and wear.
– the tank cap is securely attached.
– the tank and fuel-carrying parts, as well
as the tank cap are in good condition.
– the safety devices are in good condition
and function correctly.
– the tyres (inflation pressure, damage,
wear) and frame are in good condition.
Check that all screw connections are
securely fastened. In particular, all
maintenance operations listed in the
maintenance schedule under the
heading “Before each use” must be
carried out. (
If necessary, consult a specialist dealer.
VIKING recommends VIKING specialist
dealers.
4.7 Working with your machine
Never work in the vicinity of
other persons, particularly
children, or animals. Ensure
that the grass is never
discharged in the direction of other
persons.
Do not operate the machine in the rain or
during thunder storms, particularly when
there is a risk of lightning strike.
Exhaust gases:
The machine generates
poisonous exhaust gases when
the engine is running. The
gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, a colourless and
odourless gas, as well as other pollutants.
The engine must never be operated in
closed or poorly ventilated spaces.
The engine exhaust is released into the air
in a forward direction, between the two
front wheels. When working with the
machine, ensure that this area is always
kept clean and is never covered in order to
prevent the accumulation of exhaust
gasses.
Starting:
The machine must only be started from the
driver's seat.
Start the machine on level ground, not on
a slope.
The engine may only be started in a well
ventilated working area, sufficient
ventilation must be ensured, particularly in
garages.
Before starting the engine, disengage the
cutting tool, attachments and drive and
press down the brake pedal fully.
When starting, it must be ensured that
there is sufficient clearance between the
feet and the cutting tool.
Never start the engine by short-circuiting
the starter terminal. If the normal starter
circuit is bypassed, the ride-on mower may
suddenly be set in motion.
Never start the engine if the smell of petrol
can be detected –
Explosive hazard!
Danger to life through poisoning!
In the case of nausea, headache,
impaired vision (e.g. decreasing
field of view) hearing disorder,
dizziness, decreasing power of
concentration, stop working
immediately. These symptoms may
be caused by excessively high
exhaust gas concentrations.
