To understand this product, and for safety and optimum performance, read this manual before starting the engine. Pay special attention to SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS highlighted by this symbol. It means CAUTION, WARNING or DANGER—personal safety instruction. Failure to comply with the instruction may result in personal injury. FOREWORD This operator’s manual has instructions on safety, proper set-up and operation, adjustments and maintenance.
Safety Training 1. Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the controls and the proper use of the equipment. 2. Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these instructions to use the lawn mower. Local regulations may restrict the age of the operator. 3. 4. 2. Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be used and remove all objects which may be thrown by the machine. 3. WARNING—Petrol is highly flammable. Never mow while people, especially children, or pets are nearby.
Safety • do not stop or start suddenly when going up or downhill; • change into neutral and set the parking brake; • engage the clutch slowly, and always keep the machine in gear, especially when travailing downhill; • stop the engine and remove the key. • machine speeds should be kept low on slopes and during tight turns; • stay alert for bumps and hollows and other hidden hazards; • never mow across the face of the slope, unless the lawn mower is designed for this purpose. 13.
Safety 7. If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be done outdoors. 8. Be careful during adjustment of the machine to prevent entrapment of the fingers between moving blades and fixed parts of the machine. 9. On multi-bladed machines, take care as rotating one blade can cause other blades to rotate. 10. When the machine is to be parked, stored or left unattended, lower the cutting means unless a positive mechanical lock is used.

Before Operating CHECK THE ENGINE OIL CAUTION Before servicing or making adjustments to the machine, stop the engine and remove the key from the switch. ➀ Crankcase capacity is 5.0 l (5.3 qt) with the filter. 1. Park the machine on a level surface. Release the hood latch and open the hood. Figure 2 1. Dipstick/Tub Cap CHECK THE COOLING SYSTEM Capacity of the system is 13.2 l (3.5 gal). Figure 1 1. 2. 3. 1. Park the machine on a level surface. Release the hood latch and open the hood. 2.
Before Operating IMPORTANT: Do not remove the black plastic cap on the tank. 4. Install the tank cap. 5. Close the hood and secure the latch. FILL THE FUEL TANK 1. Park the machine on a level surface. Release the hood latch and open the hood. 2. Remove the fuel tank cap. Because diesel fuel is highly flammable, use caution when storing or handling it. Do not smoke while filling the fuel tank. Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine is running, hot, or when the machine is in an enclosed area.
Before Operating IMPORTANT: To prevent system contamination, clean the top of hydraulic oil containers before puncturing them. Make sure the pour spout and funnel are clean. 3. ➀ Install the reservoir cap, close the hood and secure the latch. ➁ Figure 6 1. Access Panel 1. Dipstick cap ➀ Figure 5 1. 2. Sight gauge Hydraulic reservoir cap CHECK FRONT AXLE OIL LEVEL The front axle is shipped from the factory filled with SAE 80-90 grade gear lubricant.
Before Operating and make sure lubricant is up to the bottom of the hole. If the level is low, remove the fill plug and add enough lubricant to bring the level up to the bottom of the check plug holes. CHECK TORQUE OF WHEEL NUTS OR BOLTS CHECK THE REEL-TO-BEDKNIFE CONTACT ➁ ➀ Each day before operating, check the reel-to-bedknife contact, regardless of whether or not quality of cut had previously been acceptable. There must be light contact across the full length of the reel and bedknife.
Controls Cutting Unit Engagement Switch (Fig 9)—Used to start and stop cutting unit operation. Lift the switch and move it forward to actuate the cutting units. Throttle Control (Fig 9)—Move the control forward to increase engine speed, backward to decrease it. Glow Plug Indicator (Fig. 9)—Automatically actuates the proper glow period when the ignition key is turned to the ON position. Illuminates when glow plugs are actuated.
Controls To stop, reduce foot pressure on the traction pedal and allow it to return to the center position. On extreme downhill slopes, apply pressure to the REVERSE side of the pedal, or operate with your heel on REVERSE and your toe on the FORWARD portion of the pedal. Axle Shift Lever (Fig. 11)—Located on the right side of the console, the lever selects the front drive mode. Pull out the lockout knob and move the lever rearward for mowing operation.
Controls 3) the cutting units in the upright position for transport. Horn—In the center of the steering wheel. Operates only when the key switch is ON. Figure 13 1. Transport latch ( Operating Instructions STARTING AND STOPPING 1. 2. Sit on the seat, and keep your foot off the traction pedal. Make sure the parking brake is engaged, the traction pedal is in NEUTRAL and the cutting unit engagement switch is in the DISENGAGED position. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Operation 4. Pump the priming plunger until you feel resistance. Try to start the engine. If the engine does not start repeat step 3. TRAL and the cutting unit engagement switch is DISENGAGED. In addition, the engine will stop when the cutting unit engagement switch is engaged or the traction pedal is depressed when the operator is off the seat. CAUTION ➀ ➁ Figure 14 1. 2. Primer plunger Bleed screw The interlock switches are for the operator’s protection, so do not disconnect them.
Operating OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS Familiarization—Before mowing grass, practice operating the machine in an open area. Start and stop the engine. Operate in forward and reverse. Lower and raise the cutting units simultaneously and individually. Engage and disengage the reels. Operate with all cutting units down, then with only an individual cutting unit. When you feel familiar with the machine, practice operating around trees and obstacles. Also drive up and down slopes at different speeds.

Maintenance LUBRICATION GREASING BEARINGS AND BUSHINGS (Fig. 28-38) The traction unit has grease fittings that must be lubricated regularly with No. 2 General Purpose Lithium Base Grease. If you operate the machine under normal conditions, lubricate all bearings and bushings after every 25 hours of operation. 1. The traction unit bearings and bushings that must be lubricated are: Two- and Four-wheel drive the machines— #1 Lift arm pivot (1), #1 lift cylinder (1), brake arm pivots (2) (Fig.
