MAIN COMPONENTS

The machine is composed of a series of main
components that have the following functions (Fig.1.0):
A. Chassis: this is the casing that houses
the rotating cutting means.
B. Engine: the driving force for the cutting
means and wheel drive (if provided).
C. Cutting means: the element
designed to cut the grass.
D. Rear discharge guard: it is a safety device
which prevents objects drawn up by the blade
from being hurled away from the machine.
E. Rear discharge chute (if provided): as well as
discharging the grass cuttings onto the ground
at the back, this is also a safety element that
stops any objects drawn up by the cutting means
from being hurled away from the machine.
F. Side discharge guard (if provided): it is a safety
device which prevents objects drawn up by the
blade from being hurled away from the machine.

discharging the grass cuttings onto the ground
at the side, this is also a safety element that
stops any objects drawn up by the cutting means
from being hurled away from the machine.
H. Grass catcher: as well as collecting the grass
cuttings, this is also a safety element that stops
any objects drawn up by the cutting means
from being hurled away from the machine.
I. Handle: this is the operator's work station.
It is long enough to ensure the operator
remains at a safe distance from the
rotary cutting means whilst working.
J. Engine brake lever / cutting means: the
lever that allows you to switch the engine on
and off whilst simultaneously engaging and
disengaging the cutting means (fig. 8.A).
