OPERATING THE MACHINE IN WORK
Follow the instructions to set the cutter depth and en-
gage the blade cutter drive. Ensure that the ground
wheel drive is also engaged. Start the engine and
grasping the throttle lever pull upward to engage the
main drive. Apply a gentle downward pressure to the
operators handles to enter the cutter blade in the
ground then relax the handles and allow the machine
to do the work. To exit the cut, tilt the machine for-
ward while the drive is still engaged until the cutter
blade clears the ground then balancing the machine on
it’s front wheels manoeuvre the machine for the next
cut.
TRANSPORTING AND MANOEUVRING
Pulling up on the throttle lever ’A’ will increase the
engine speed and engage the main drive clutch. If the
ground drive lever and blade drive toggle are set in the
disengaged (neutral) position, no drive will be trans-
mitted to the ground wheel or the cutter blade and the
machine can be wheeled freely by the operator. En-
gage the ground drive for forward transportation un-
der power. . Tilt the machine forward to balance on
the front wheel when manoeuvring or transporting the
machine, the cutter blade drive should remain disen-
gaged.
THE ENGINE
The TMC46 Mk2 Turf multi Cutter is fitted with a
Honda GX200 6.5 HP Engine. Unleaded or low leaded
fuel is preferred to minimize combustion chamber de-
posits.
Before starting for the first time check that the
engine has been filled to the correct level with en-
gine oil
(see running maintenance section of this
manual). To start the engine, turn the ignition switch
‘A’ on. Check that the fuel lever ‘C’ is turned on and if
the engine is cold, turn on the choke lever ‘B’. Pull the
starter cord handle ‘D’ and when the engine starts, ease
the choke lever off.
