6.2 | DAILY CHECKS AND MAINTENANCE
Before starting any maintenance or repair works, thoroughly reacquaint yourself with all instructions, restrictions and
recommendations in this user’s manual.
Always remove the key from the ignition and disconnect the spark plug cables before performing any cleaning, maintenance or
repairs.
When working use suitable work clothing and work footwear. Use suitable gloves when handling a mowing blade or for activities
where there is a risk of cuts.
Avoid spilling fuel, oils or other harmful substances.
Do not perform any major repairs if you do not have the necessary tools and a good knowledge about repairs of
combustion engines!
Dispose of used oil, fuel or other hazardous substances and materials in accordance environmental protection regulations in force.
6.2.1 BEFORE STARTING WORK
► INSPECTION OF 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.
The air pressure in the front and rear tyres must be in the range
80 - 140 KPa , whilst the differences between individual tyres may
be ± 10 KPa .
► INSPECTION OF 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  lling of oil are included in a separate user’s manual supplied by the engine’s manufacturer.
► INSPECTION OF CABLES AND BOLT CONNECTIONS
Visually inspect the condition of cables and manually check the tightness of bolt connections.
► INSPECTION OF 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.
► INSPECTION OF THE WORKING ORDER OF SAFETY ELEMENTS
Before every use of the riding mower, check the working order of safety elements:

switch under the seat

switch on an attached grass catcher or deflector

full grass catcher switch

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. On machines with a single
cylinder engine (BS15, 15.5 HP) close the fuel supply.
► CLEANING THE MACHINE
Remove all dirt and grass remains from the surface of the tractor, the ejection chute and the mowing deck.
Thoroughly clean the textile sack of the grass catcher. When it is clogged with grass, the ability of the machine to fill the grass
catcher is reduced.
► WASHING THE MACHINE
Before washing, park the machine on a suitable even surface.

Grass catcher:
- remove the grass catcher from the machine, wash it and allow it to dry naturally.

Plastic parts on the machine:
- clean using a sponge and soapy water

Mowing deck:
- wash the inside including the part of the ejection chute
- slide a hose of a suitable diameter on to the fittings on the mowing deck cover. Start the engine, engage the
mowing deck and flush out the mowing deck with a current of water for 10 minutes.
This flushing procedure needs to be performed at the end of every mowing session.
6.2.2
Avoid washing with water in the vicinity of electrical accessories on the control panel, battery, etc.
Do not spray pressurised water on to bearings or pulleys!
We do not recommend cleaning the machine and particularly the mowing deck using pressurised water. This can reduce the
lifetime of bearings and other moving parts!
