INTRODUCTION
Congratulations
Thank you for purchasing a Husqvarna Rider. Husqvarna Riders have been designed according to a unique concept with a front mounted cutting unit and patented rear wheel steering. The Rider is built to give maximum efficiency even in small and confined areas. Collected controls and a hydrostatic transmission controlled by pedals also contribute to the machine’s performance.
This Operator’s Manual is a valuable document. Following the instructions (use, service, maintenance, etc.) can considerably increase the life span of your machine and even increase its resale value.
When you sell your Rider, make sure to give the operator’s manual to the new owner.
The final chapter of this operator’s manual comprises a Service Journal. Ensure that service and repair work is documented. A
Driving and Transport on Public Roads
Check applicable road traffic regulations before driving and transport on public roads. You should always use approved fasteners during transport and ensure that the machine is well secured.
Towing
Your machine is equipped with a hydrostatic transmission and, if necessary, you should only tow the machine over short distances and at a low speed, otherwise there is a risk of damaging the transmission. The power transmission must be disengaged when towing, see Clutch Control.
Use
This machine has been designed to mow grass on lawns and other open and level ground surfaces without obstacles such as stones, tree stubs, etc., even when the machine is equipped with special accessories provided by the manufacturer, for which the operating instructions are enclosed with the delivery. All other types of use are incorrect. The manufacturer’s instructions with regard to driving, maintenance, and repair must be followed precisely.
The machine may only be operated, maintained, and repaired by persons that are fully conversant with the machine’s special characteristics and safety regulations.
Accident prevention regulations, other general safety regulations, occupational safety rules, and traffic regulations must be observed.
Unauthorised modifications to the design of the machine may absolve the manufacturer from liability for any resulting personal injury or property damage.
