PUTTING THE MACHINE INTO SERVICE
1) Check that the machine is complete and has not been damaged in transit.
2) Check the engine oil level, use (SAE30).
3) Check the tyre pressure:
Front wheels 20×10.0 – 8 (1 BAR)
Rear wheels 15×6.0 – 6 (1,2 BAR)
4) Check the battery voltage; it must be at least 12 Volts. Charge the battery if necessary.
IMPORTANT!!! When fitting the battery, ensure that the poles are correctly connected. Never
start the engine if the battery is not connected.
5) Important: the hydraulic oil level indicator is placed on the right side side of the tank (fig.14, ref.
A). Exclusively use ISO VG 46 (OSO 46) oil.
BATTERY – WARNING!
The gases released by the battery are explosive, keep it away from sparks or naked lights. Check
the terminals periodically and keep them greased with Vaseline.
RUNNING-IN – WARNING!!
Change the engine oil after the first 20 working hours. Use SAE30 API SJ oil, 1,9 litres. Change
the oil in the hydrostatic axle after the first 50 working hours. Check that there are no oil leaks or
loose screws, especially the blade fixing screws.
IMPORTANT: the central screw of the right
blade has a left-hand thread.
