FOREWORD TABLE OF CONTENTS The GREENSMASTER 1600 was developed to provide an efficient, trouble-free method of mowing high quality-turf on the finest greens. The latest concepts of engineering, design and safety have been incorporated into this machine, along with the highest quality parts and workmanship. Excellent service will be derived if proper operation and maintenance practices are followed. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Safety, mechanical and some general information in this manual are emphasized.
Safety Training 1. 3. 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. Never mow while people, especially children, or pets are nearby. 4. Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their property. 5. Do not carry passengers. 6.
Safety • 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. 6. Use care when pulling loads or using heavy equipment. • Use only approved drawbar hitch points. • Limit loads to those you can safely control. • Do not turn sharply. Use care when reversing. • Use counterweight(s) or wheel weights when suggested in the instruction handbook.
Safety Sound & Vibration Levels Sound Levels This unit has an equivalent continuous A-weighted sound pressure at the operator ear of: 83 dB(A), based on measurements of identical machines per 84/538/EEC.

Preparation Before Operating ADD ENGINE OIL FILL THE FUEL TANK Initially, the crankcase must be filled with 47 cl of proper viscosity oil (See chart below). Use any highquality detergent oil having the American Petroleum Institute (API) “service classification”–MS, or SC. NOTE: NEVER USE METHANOL, GASOLINE CONTAINING METHANOL, GASOLINE CONTAINING MORE THAN 10% ETHANOL, GASOLINE ADDITIVES, PREMIUM GASOLINE OR WHITE GAS BECAUSE FUEL SYSTEM DAMAGE COULD RESULT.
Before Operating 1 3 1 2 Fig. 3 Fig. 2 1. 2. 1. 2. Fuel tank cap Install the fuel tank cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline. 7. Position the machine on a flat, level surface, preferably a precision steel plate. Place a 1/4” x 1” (.625 x 2.5 cm) flat steel strip, 74 cm long, under the reel blades and against the front edge of the bed knife to prevent the bedbar from resting on the work surface. 2. Raise the front roller so that only the rear drum and the reel are on the surface. 3.
Before Operating 3. On one end of the front side of the reel, insert a long strip of newspaper between the reel and the bedknife (Fig. 5). While slowly rotating the reel forward, tighten the bedknife adjusting screw (on same end of the reel), one flat at a time, until the paper is pinched lightly when inserted from the front, parallel to the bedknife, which results in a slight drag when the paper is pulled (Fig. 4). 4 2 1 3 Fig. 5 Fig. 6 1. 2. 3. 4. 3. Loosen the nut on the gauge bar (Fig.
Before Operating 1. Measure the distance from the top of the front support rod to the front lip of the shield at each end of the cutting unit (Fig. 10). 2 Fig. 8 1 6. Tighten the nuts at the sides of the height-of-cut brackets to lock adjustment. Figure 10 IMPORTANT: To avoid scalping on undulating turf, make sure the roller supports are positioned rearward (roller closer to the reel). 1. 2. 2. Note: The front roller can be put in three different positions (Fig.
Before Operating 1 Figure 11 1. Cut-off bar INSTALL THE GRASS BASKET 1. Grasp the basket by the top rear lip and slide it onto the basket mounting rods (Fig. 12). 2. When cutting in higher heights of cut, the basket may be lowered by removing each basket mounting rod and re-installing on the opposite side of the machine. 2 1 Fig. 12 1. 2.

Controls Traction Engagement Lever (Fig. 13)—Located on the front right side of the control panel. The lever has two positions: NEUTRAL and FORWARD. Pushing the lever forward engages the traction drive. 1 Operator Presence Control (Optional) (Fig. 13)— Located on the rear of the handle. Push the control lever forward to engage. The lever must be engaged before engaging the traction engagement lever or the engine will stop. Service/Park Brake (Fig. 13)—Located on the left front side of control panel.

Operating Instructions STARTING AND STOPPING TRANSPORT OPERATION Note: Make sure the spark plug wire is installed on the spark plug. 1. Push the kick stand down with your foot and pull up on the handle to raise the rear of the mower and install the transport wheels. 2. To release the kickstand, push the mower forward and then downward on handle. Note: The engine will not start if the traction lever is in the engaged position. 3.
Operating Instructions carefully adjusted and is set evenly on both sides of the reel. Improper mower adjustment is magnified many times in the appearance of the clipped turf. A three-to-five foot wide “collar” should be mowed around the area at a slightly higher cut than the putting green area. This will provide sufficient space for turning the mower without turning on the green area. METHOD OF MOWING The Greens should be mowed in a straight back-andforth direction across the green.
Maintenance Minimum Recommended Maintenance Intervals Maintenance Procedure Service air filter pre-cleaner Lubricate all grease fittings. Check for loose fasteners Maintenance Interval & Service Every 25 hours Every 50 hours Every 100 hours Every 200 hours Clean the fuel filter and sediment bowl.
Maintenance Lubrication The (12) grease fittings on the mower should be greased at least every 25 hours. Lubricate using No. 2 multi-purpose lithium base grease. A hand operated grease gun is recommended for best results. 1. Wipe each grease fitting with a clean rag. 2. The grease fitting locations are: (2) on The front Roller (Fig. 17 ), (2) on the reel bearings (Fig. 17), (2) on Drum Axles (Fig. 18), (3) on Differential (Fig. 18), (2) on The reel Countershaft Bearings (Fig.
Maintenance A. Remove the belt cover mounting screws to expose the belt. B. 1 Loosen the idler pulley mounting nut and pivot the idler pulley clockwise against the backside of the belt until the desired tension is attained. DO NOT OVERTENSION THE BELT! 2 C. Tighten the nut to lock adjustment D. Reinstall the belt cover by placing the cover in position. While maintaining a slight gap between the cover seal and the side plate, install each mounting bolt until the threads engage in the insert.
