9) MOWING TIPS
Best results are achieved when no more than 1/3 of the height of the grass is cut off. The cutting deck
shoulde be level under all conditions; if long grass must be cut, use highest cutting height for first
mowing. If you want the grass shorter, then recut to the lower height. If cut too short, the grass will
expend more energy for development of new leaves and less for root strengthening and will be more
subjected to burning. On the other hand, if allowed to grow too long, the lower part will be shaded and
will discolor. Dispersed clippings mat to form thatch which prevents proper growth; to prevent grass
disease from thatch, bagging is always recommended,
except in the case of mulching. All ACTIVE
mower are designed to allow immediate change of function: cutting and bagging at the same time or
cutting only (this is recommended only when grass is high) or mulching.
10) MAINTENANCE
1) Check the blade and the engine mounting bolts at frequent
intervals for proper tighness, as showned in the picture. Stop
the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire before reparing.
Tip mower on its left side or opposite side from spark plug, so
plug will not be fouled (which causes starting problems).
Inspecting : carefully examine blade for sharpness and wear,
especially where flat and curved parts meet. Since sand and
abrasive material can wear away the metal that connects the
flat surface to the upturned lift, check blade before using the
mower. If a slot or wear is noticed replace blade. Replace blade
if badly chipped, bent or out of balance.
Disassembly: Firmly grip an edge of the blade, to avoid the
risk of cuts it advisable to wear gloves; unscrew the bolt, remove
the washer and then the blade.
Sharpening : Sharpen blade when the cutting edges become dull if the blade is in
otherwise good condition. For best results, remove the blade and sharpen it on grinding
wheel. Check blade after sharpening to determine that it is still balanced. It will cause
excessive vibration if unbalanced. Be careful to avoid cutting yuorself on sharp blade!
Assemble the blade centering it on the support and tighten the bolt at 55 Nm.
2) Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the equipment is in safe working
conditions.
3) When the grasscatcher is used on your mower, check the catcher often for damage.
Used only recommended catcher. Replace with new bag if loose seams or tears are
evident. To extend the life of the basket it is necessary to empty it each time the cut
is terminated and before the winter storage.
4) Never store the equipment with gasoline in the tank inside a building where fumes
may reach an open flame or spark. Allow the engine to cool before storing in any
enclosure.
5) Frequently check the condition of the belt. If it’s damaged, replace it immediately.
6) After an accidental collision with foreign objects such as
rocks or roots, carefully examine the blade and the hub blade
holder. If you notice cracks or faults, immediately replace
the component.
7) Have your mower inspected and serviced each year by an
authorized ACTIVE dealer. Determine if any additional devices
are available which might upgrade the safety of your mower.
8) Factory specified ACTIVE replacement parts must be used
to assure adequate protection against injury.
9) For the maintenance of the engine, check the
manufacturer’s manual.
ATTENTION!
Srop the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire
before reparing.
ATTENTION! If blade is allowed to wear, a slot may
form near the sail. Eventually a piece of blade may
break off resulting in serious injury to yourself or a
bystander.
ATTENTION!
The collision with a foreign body causes the
breakage of the blade-bearing hub to safeguard
the integrity of the motor shaft.
