6.2.1 BEFORE STARTING WORK
 CHECK TYRE PRESSURE
Maintain the prescribed tyre pressure and check it regularly. Maintaining the prescribed tyre pressure
is important for even mowing. Different pressure values may cause difficulty in driving, or even loss of
control over the machine.
Pressure in the front tyres:
150 kPa
Pressure in the rear tyres: 80 kPa
The difference between the individual tyres may be ± 10 kPa .
 CHECK THE OIL LEVEL IN THE ENGINE
Park the riding mower on a horizontal surface. Open the hood and unscrew the cap of the filling opening.
Screw out the oil dipstick, wipe it dry, reinsert it and screw in. Then again screw it out and take the oil
level reading.
The oil level must be between the two marks on the dipstick. If it is not, fill up with motor oil so that it
reaches the “ FULL ” mark.
Further details about checking and filling of oil are included in a separate user‘s manual
supplied by the engine‘s manufacturer.
 CHECK CABLES AND BOLT CONNECTIONS
Visually inspect the condition of cables and manually check the tightness of bolt connections.

CHECK WORKING ORDER OF BRAKES
Check that the brakes work properly. Proceed as follows:
 Park the machine on an even surface and turn off the engine.

Step on the brake pedal and engage the parking brake.

Using the by-pass lever disengage the rear wheel drive.

Try to push the machine forward. If the rear wheels rotate, then the brakes need to be serviced.
Contact an authorised service centre to have them adjusted.
6.2.2 AFTER FINISHING WORK

SETTING UP THE MACHINE
After finishing mowing elevate the mowing deck to the highest position and disable the drive for the
mowing blades.
Turn off the ignition, step on the brake pedal and secure the machine in position with the parking brake.
 CLEANING THE MACHINE
 Remove all dirt and grass remains from the surface of the tractor.

Also remove grass, dust and other flammable materials from the edge of the exhaust.
 CLEANING THE MOWING DECK
The mowing deck must be carefully cleaned after every use, namely the inside walls of the deck. Use
a scraper, spatula or a current of water for cleaning. Proper maintenance and treatment of the mowing
deck improves work quality and the machine’s lifespan. Proceed as follows:

Secure the machine against movement.

Elevate the mowing deck to the transport position.

Lift (tilt out) the protective metal cover on the right side of the chamber. Clean out the entire area of
the mowing deck.

While cleaning also check the condition of the blades ( 6.3.6 ).
