– Blades fault
– Blades unbalanced
– Fastenings are loose
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The electrical system is protected by a fuse which cuts out the entire electrical system if blown. After
finding and repairing the fault, replace the fuse with another of the same rating. Never replace the
fuse with one of a different rating. The electrical system fuses are on the left-hand side of the
steering wheel (fig. 23). If the problems persist after all the procedures described above have been
carried out, contact the Authorised After-Sales Service Centre. Never attempt to make difficult repairs
unless you have the necessary equipment and technical expertise.
IMPORTANT!
– Take care not to reverse the battery polarity.
– Never operate the mower without the battery, since it is equipped with a charge regulator.
– Take care not to cause short-circuits.
THE MACHINE DOES NOT REMAIN IN NEUTRAL
Loosen the counter-nuts (fig. 24, B) and tighten the nut (fig. 24, C) to move the machine forward.
Loosen the same nut (fig. 24, C) to move the machine backwards.
FORWARD LEVER
To adjust the forward and reverse travel speeds, use the screws (A, fig. 25) if the forward lever
automatically returns to zero adjust the self-locking nut (B, fig. 25).
ENDING WORK
After mowing, disengage the blades and drive back to base with the cutting deck in the highest
position.
To stop, move the travel lever to the STOP position (2, fig. 3), set the throttle lever on the minimum
rpm, switch off the engine by turning the key (1, Fig. 1) and lower the deck to the lowest position.
CLEANING
Clean the outside of the mower after each use.
STORAGE AND PROLONGED PERIODS OF DISUSE
Store the mower in a dry place, away from atmospheric agents, and preferably cover with a sheet. If
the mower is not going to be used for a long period (over 1 month), disconnect the red battery cable
(fig. 23) and follow the instructions given in the engine manual. Also lubricate all of the articulated
joints. Regularly check that the battery voltage does not drop below 12 volts. If it does, recharge the
battery. Use the preservative additive for unleaded petrol. If the machine is to be out of use for more
than 30 days, drain the fuel from the engine to prevent sticky deposits from forming in the fuel intake
system or in vital parts of carburettor. To protect the engine we advise you to use the Briggs &
Stratton fuel additive, available from all Briggs & Stratton authorised services centres. Add the
additive to the fuel in the tank or in the fuel container. Run the engine a little to circulate the additive
through the carburettor. The engine and carburettor can be stored for up to 24 months. NB.: If no
additive are used or the engine is running on petrol which contains alcohol, drain the fuel tank and run
the engine until there is no fuel left.
