This operator's manual has instructions on safety, operation, and maintenance. This manual emphasizes safety, mechanical and general product information. DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION identify safety messages. Whenever the triangular safety alert symbol appears, understand the safety message that follows. “IMPORTANT” highlights special mechanical information and “NOTE” emphasizes general product information worthy of special attention.
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. 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.
• engage the clutch slowly, and always keep the machine in gear, especially when travailing downhill; • 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. 14. Stop the engine and disengage the drive to the attachment 6. Use care when pulling loads or using heavy equipment. • Use only approved drawbar hitch points.
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. Sound & Vibration Levels Sound Levels This unit has an equivalent continuous A-weighted sound pressure at the operator ear of: 86 dB(A), based on measurements of identical machines per 84/538/EEC.

Before Operating CHECK THE ENGINE OIL The engine is shipped with 1.7 liter (with filter) of oil in the crankcase; however, the level of oil must be checked before and after you first start the engine. 1. Position the machine on a level surface. 2. Unscrew the dipstick and wipe it with a clean cloth. Screw the dipstick into the filler neck and make sure it is seated fully. Unscrew the dipstick and check the oil level. If it is low, add enough oil to raise the level to the FULL mark on the dipstick. 3.
premium gasoline, or white gas because the engine fuel system damage could result. 1. 1 Fill the gasoline tank to the bottom of the filler neck. DO NOT OVERFILL. Install the cap and tighten it securely in place. DANGER Because gasoline is flammable, use caution when storing or handling lt. Do not fill the fuel tank while the engine is running, or hot, or when the machine is in an enclosed area. Vapors may build up and be ignited by a spark or flame source many feet away.

Controls 3 MOW PEDAL (Fig. 4)—Depressing the mow pedal FULLY during operation lowers the cutting units and starts the reels. BRAKE PEDAL (Fig. 4)—The brake pedal actuates an automotive drum-type mechanical brake. 2 LIFT PEDAL (Fig. 4)—Depressing the lift pedal during operation stops the reels from turning and lifts the cutting units. The lift pedal must be FULLY depressed until the cutting units are fully raised and have stopped rotating. PARKING BRAKE BUTTON (Fig.
FUSE (Fig. 6)—The 20-amp fuse is part of the electrical circuit. LEAK DETECTOR TEST/LIGHT SWITCH (Fig. 6) From the middle operating position, move the switch rearward to check the operation of the leak detector alarm and time delay. Move the switch forward to operate optional headlights. HOUR METER (Fig. 6)—Shows the total hours of machine operation. The hour meter starts whenever the key switch is turned to ON.

First-Time Operation BREAK-IN PERIOD 1. B. Refer to the Engine Manual supplied with the Greensmaster 3100 for oil change and maintenance procedures recommended during break-in. 2. Only 8 hours of mowing operation is required for the Greensmaster 3100 break-in period. 3. The first hours of operation are critical to future dependability. Monitor performance closely so that minor difficulties that could lead to major problems can be corrected.
CAUTION The interlock switches are for the operator’s protection, so do not disconnect them. Check switch operation daily to assure the interlock system is operating. If a switch is defective, replace it before operating. Regardless of whether the switches are operating properly, replace them every two years to assure maximum safety. Do not rely entirely on safety switches—use common sense! 1.
machine and out of the area of operation. Move the shift selector to Neutral, make sure the mow pedal is disengaged, set the throttle control at half speed and engage the parking brake. Hold the steering wheel, brace your feet on the foot deck and brake pedal, and move the shift selector to the #1 position. Carefully rise off the seat; the engine should stop. If the engine stops, the interlock system is operating correctly. Repeat this check with the shift selector in the #2 position.
PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR MOWING To help align the machine for successive cutting passes, do the following to the No. 2 and No. 3 cutting-unit baskets: 1. Measure in approximately 12 cm from the outer edge of each basket. 2. Either place a strip of white tape or paint a line onto each basket paralleling the outer edge of each basket (Fig. 13).
Operating BEFORE MOWING 4. As the front of the baskets cross the edge of the green, depress the lift pedal. This will stop the reels and lift the cutting units. Timing of this procedure is important, so the mowers do not cut into the fringe area. However, as much of the green as possible should be cut to minimize the amount of grass left to mow around the outer periphery. 5.
cutting. Replace the flag. 8. 4 Empty the grass baskets of all clippings before transporting to the next green. Heavy wet clippings place an undue strain on the baskets and will add unnecessary weight to the machine, thereby increasing the load on the engine, hydraulic system, brakes, etc. 2 3 1 LEAK DETECTOR OPERATION The leak detector alarm may sound for one of the following reasons: Figure 14 1.
