Resumen del manual
Set the desired engine speed with the throttle. Allow the engine to run at a moderate speed, “half throttle” for 3-5 minutes before loading it to heavily. USE FULL THROTTLE WHEN MOWING (no choke). Use full throttle when mowing 8050-031-a WARNING! Lead-acid batteries generate explosive gases. Keep sparks, flame and smoking materials away from batteries. Always wear eye protection when around batteries. If your battery is too weak to start the engine, it should be recharged. (See Battery in the Maintenance section.) If jumper cables are used for emergency starting, follow this procedure: Jumper cables 1. Connect each end of the RED cable to the POSITIVE (+) terminal on each battery, taking care not to short against chassis. 2. Connect one end of the BLACK cable to the NEGATIVE (-) terminal of the fully charged battery. 3. Connect the other end of the BLACK cable to a good CHASSIS GROUND on the mower with the discharged battery, away from the fuel tank and battery. To remove cables, reverse order 1. Remove BLACK cable first from chassis and then from the fully charged battery. 2. Remove RED cable last from both batteries. 8011-642 IMPORTANT INFORMATION Your mower is equipped with a 12-volt negative grounded system. The other vehicle must also be a 12-volt negative grounded system. Do not use your mower to start other vehicles. Jumper cable connection opera tion 28 Running 1. Release the parking brake by moving the lever downward. NOTE: The mower is equipped with an operator presence system. When the engine is running, any attempt by the operator to leave the seat without first setting the parking brake will shut off the engine. 2. Move the steering controls to the neutral position (N). WARNING! Ensure that no one is near mower when engaging blade control lever. 3. Select the cutting height by placing the lever into the desired notch. 4. Engage the mower blade by sliding the lever upwards and into the lock notch. 5. Move throttle control to full throttle. 6. The machine’s speed and direction are continuously variable using the two steering controls. When both controls are in the neutral position, the machine stands still. By moving both controls an equal amount forward or backward, the machine moves in a straight line forward or backward respectively. In order, for example, to turn right while moving forward, move the right control towards the neutral position. The rotation of the right wheel is reduced and the machine turns to the right. Turning on the spot (zero turn) can be achieved by moving one control backward (behind the neutral position) and carefully moving the other steering control forward from its neutral position. 8050-005 Parking brake not activated 8058-085 Mower deck’s lifting lever 8058-075 Mower blade control lever locked into blade engagement opera tion 29 WARNING! Do not drive up or down hills with slopes greater than 10 degrees. Do not drive across slopes. Operating on Hills Read the Safety Instructions Driving on Slopes in the Safety Instructions. • The slowest speed possible should be used before starting up or down hills. • Avoid stopping or changing speed on hills. • If stopping is absolutely necessary, pull drive levers into the neutral position and push to the outside of the unit and engage the parking brake. • To restart movement, release the parking brake. • Pull the control levers back to the center of the mower and press forward to regain forward motion. • Make all turns slowly. IMPORTANT INFORMATION When in reverse, control levers return to neutral when released. This may cause the mower to suddenly stop. 8050-020 Start conditions oPeRAtIon Mowing Tips • Observe and flag rocks and other fixed objects to avoid collisions. • Begin with a high cutting height and reduce it until the desired mowing result is attained. The average lawn should be cut to 2." (64 mm) during the cool season and over 3" (76 mm) during the hot months. For healthier and better looking lawns, mow often after moderate growth. For best cutting performance, grass over 6" (15 cm) in height should be mowed twice. Make the first cut relatively high, the second to the desired height. • The mowing result will be best with a high engine speed (the blades rotate rapidly) and low speed (the rider moves slowly). If the grass is not too long and dense, the driving speed can be increased without negatively affecting the mowing result. • The finest lawns are obtained by mowing often. The lawn becomes more even and the grass clippings more evenly distributed over the mown area. The total time taken is not increased as a higher operating speed can be used without poor mowing results. • Avoid mowing wet lawns. The mowing result is poorer because the wheels sink into the soft lawn, clumps build, and the grass clippings fasten under the cowling. • Hose the mower deck underside with water after each use. When cleaning, the mower deck shall be raised into the transport position. Make sure the mower is cooled and the engine is off. ...
