height positions
-art. no.
N.B. The stated mowing heights apply when the machine is standing on firm ground.
CLEANING
After use the underside of the mower deck should be hosed down.
If grass cuttings have dried on to the mower deck, scrape the underside clean.
MOWING HINTS
For the best "Multiclip" effect follow this advice:
-mow regularly.
-use full throttle on the engine.
-keep the underside of the mower deck clean.
-use sharp blades.
-do not mow wet grass.
-mow twice (using different mowing heights) if the grass is long.
MAINTENANCE
PREPARATIONS
Unless otherwise stated, all service and mainte- nance must be performed on a machine that is standing still where the engine has been switched off.
Prevent the machine from rolling, by al- ways applying the parking brake.
Prevent involuntary engine start by al- ways stopping the engine, loosening the spark plug cable from the sparking plug and earthing it. Remove the minus
MAINTENANCE TIPS
To facilitate cleaning and maintenance of the mower deck it can be folded up:
1.Set the mowing height adjustment to an interme- diate position (= least tension on the drive belt).
2.Lift up the mower deck using the attachment lift.
3.Unhook the tension roller spring H (fig 7).
4.Pull off the
5.Loosen both locking pins J (fig 9).
6.Grip the mower deck's frame (fig 10).
7.Fold up the mower deck until it stands upright on the rear support plates (fig 11).
If necessary
DRIVE BELTS
If any of the blades have hit a solid object (e.g. a stone) the belt tension can change. This means that the drive belt can,
If necessary adjust the drive belt:
1.Unhook the tension roller spring H (fig 7).
2.Pry off the drive belt from the central belt pulley F.
3.Dismantle the transmission casing.
4.Loosen the tension arm K (fig 12).
5.Loosen the bearing box's fixing bolts L (fig 13).
6.Tension the drive belt by pressing the tension arm backwards.
7.Tighten the tension arm's fixing bolts.
8.Tighten the bearing box's fixing bolts.
9.Carry out the same procedure for the other drive belt.
When changing the drive belts, make sure that the outer blades are always at 90° to the centre blade (see fig 14).
If you fit the drive belts incorrectly the blades will collide as they overlap each other.
Always check the position of the blades after changing the drive belt or adjusting the tension.
CHANGING BLADES
Use protective gloves to prevent cuts when changing blades/blade tips.
Make sure the blades are always sharp. This gives the best mowing results.
Always check the blade(s) after an impact. If the blade system has been damaged the defective parts must be changed.
