Recommendations
Lubricants and
Anti-Corrosive Agents
Use the specified lubricants for en-
gine and gearbox (see “Specifica-
tions”).
We recommend using bio-lubricat-
ing oil or bio-lubricating grease for
“open” lubricating points or nipples (as
specified in the operating instruc-
tions).
We recommend using bio-slushing oil
for preservation of machines and im-
plements (do not apply on painted
external covers). Oil can be br ushed
or sprayed on.
Anti-corrosive agents are environ-
mentally friendly and degrade fast.
Using ecologically safe bio-lubricants
and bio-anti-corrosives, you contrib-
ute to environmental protection and
to the wellbeing of humans, animals
and plants.
Fuel
This engine runs smoothly on com-
mercial unleaded regular and
supergrade petrol as well as on
leaded supergrade petrol.
Do not add oil to petrol.
If, for environmental reasons, you use
unleaded petrol, make sure the fuel is
drained completely when shutting down
the engine for more than 30 days. This
is to prevent resin residue from depositing in the caburetor , fuel filter, and tank.
Or add a fuel stabilizing liquid.
When storing the grassland mower at
the end of the season, also drain leaded
fuel completely or add a fuel stabilizing
liquid.
For further instructions refer to “Engine
Preservation”.
Maintenance and
Repair
The trained mechanics of your AGRIA
workshop carry out expert maintenance
and repair.
You should only carry out major maintenance work and repairs on your own,
if you have the proper tools and knowledge of machines and internal combustion engines.
Do not hammer against the flywheel with
a hard object or metal tools as it might
crack and shatter in operation causing
injuries and damage. Only use suitable
tools for pulling the flywheel.

3. Devices and Operating Elements
The grassland mower AGRIA 5000 is
suited for horticultural, agricultural, and
forestal operations, for grass and park
maintenance and for winter service operation. The following cutter bars are
available:
l
Cutter bar – Z
71 cm
91 cm
Engine
The four-stroke petrol engine runs on
commercial petrol (refer to fuel recommendations p4).
During the first 20 operating hours
(break-in period) do not operate the
engine at maximum speed.
Even after the break-in period never
operate the engine at higher speed than
is necessary for the work in hand.
I
High engine speed is harmful to any engine and consid-
erably affects its longevity.
This applies especially for no load
operation. Any overspeed (have the
engine roar) can result in immediate
damage.
Cooling System
The cooling system is fan-cooled. Therefore keep the grille on the recoil star ter
and the cooling fins on the cylinder clean
and free from sucked-in plant trash.
Always ensure that idling-speed is adjusted correctly. At low speeds and with
the speed control lever set to idle, the
engine is supposed to run smoothly and
without run-out.
Air Filter
The air filter purifies the air intake. A
clogged filter reduces engine output.
Ignition System
The engine is equipped with a maintenance-free, contactless electronic ignition system. We recommend to have
necessary check-ups done by an expert
only .

Caution: The engine is
delivered without engine oil
for reasons of transport
safety!
Before y ou take the machine into operation, fill in engine oil!
Commissioning the
Machine
Please note that engine longevity and
operational reliability depend to a large
extent on its breaking-in. Always allow
a cold engine to warm up for some minutes and never operate it at full throttle
at the beginning. Make sure the air filter
is serviced regularly and to use clean
fuel.
Please note: for the first 20 hours of
operation (break-in period) do not use
the engine at full power.
For this purpose, park the grassland
mower in such a way that the engine is
level. For the proper oil filling quantity
and quality see ”Specifications”.
Check the oil level after filling.
Check oil level
l
Remove the oil dip-stick (B/4 and
D/4) and clean it with a clean cloth.
l
Screw the oil dip-stick all the way
down.
l
Remove the oil dip-stick and read the
oil level.
Ensure that the dip-stick sits tight in the
oil filler neck when the engine is running.
To avoid starting problems, top up fuel
before the first start-up and after longer
storage.
Before each start-up:
l
Check the engine oil-level, and top
up oil if necessary – do not add too much
oil.
l
Check whether the fuel tank contains
enough fuel.
Do not fill the fuel tank until the fuel overflows. Leave enough room (approx. 5
mm) for the fuel to expand.
W
Be careful when dealing with
fuel. Great danger of fire! Nev er
refill fuel close to open fire, inflammable sparks or hot engine parts.
Do not refill fuel in closed rooms. Do not
smoke when refilling!
Refill only with the engine shut off and
cooled down.
Do not refill fuel in closed rooms.
Do not smoke while
your are filling the
fuel tank!
Do not spill any fuel,
use a proper filling
device.
W
Do not start the engine in
closed rooms. Exhaust fumes
contain carbon monoxide
which acts toxic when inhaled.
Before you start the engine move all
controls to neutral or idling.
Keep your feet clear off the engaged
attachment.

5. Maintenance
Grinding the Mowing
Knives
W
Wear safety goggles and
gloves!
After 4–20 operating hours, depending
on the wear on the knives, these become dull and regrinding is necessary.
For this purpose, we recommend using
a hand grinder of 15,000 – 20,000 rpm
with a pot-shaped grinding pin of 25 mm
in diameter and approx. 35 mm in length
or a special grinding tool.
Grinding the knives is essential for a
clean and smooth operation.
l
Grinding is done using the front of
the grinding pin only, guiding it from the
back of the knife to the tip of the blade.
l
Blades must not heat in the process.
They are destro yed when they turn blue
(glowed out and soft).
l
Do not round off the blade tips (P).
l
Do not grind the blades in a curve
(P).

5. Maintenance
General
l
Watch out f or fuel and oil leakage and
repair, if necessary.
l
Regularly check bolts and nuts for
tight fit and retighten, if necessary.
l
Slightly grease all gliding and moving parts (e.g. speed control le ver, hand
lever bearing, etc.) with Bio-lubricating
grease and Bio-slushing oil.
Cleaning
After each cleaning (washing with water, especially with pressure washer)
lubricate all lubrication points, oil and
let the mower run for a short time to
press water out.
Apply grease generously to leave a
grease ring around bearings to prevent
water , plant sap , and dirt from penetrating.
Clean the engine only with a cloth.
Avoid spraying with air-compressed
water jets, as water might leak into ignition and fuel system, causing malfunctions.

5. Maintenance
Storage
For longer periods of no operation
prepare the grassland mower for
storage. Proceed as follows:
a) Clean thoroughly
Repair paint coat, lubricate lubrication
points and operate mower for a short
time. Then spray all shining parts, in
particular cutter bar, with Bio-slushing
oil.
b) Engine preservation
l
Change engine oil
l
Drain fuel completely and let the engine run until it comes to stop due to
lack of fuel or add fuel stabilizer (A GRIA
No. 673 50).
Method: Fill fuel tank, add anti-corrosive and stabilizing liquid (amount “ON”
stabilizes 4l of fuel). Let engine run for
approx. 1 minute. (Observe enclosed
instructions).
l
Fill a tea-spoon (approx. 0.03l) of
engine oil into spark plug opening.
Slowly crank the engine.
l
Set the piston to compression with
the recoil starter to keep the valves
closed.
l
Slowly crank the engine every 2–3
week (spark-plug connector is removed). Then set the piston to compression again.
W
Warning! Keep anti-corrosive
agent and stabilizer out of
reach of children at all times.
Do not inhale vapours! In case of
sickness and vomiting see a doctor
immediately! In case of eye contact
with liquids, rinse eyes thoroughly.
c) Drive-wheels
Support drive-wheels in such a way that
tyres have no ground contact. Pneumatic tyres are quickly destroyed, if left
standing under load and unsupported.
d)
T o park, transport, or store the grassland mower, do not tilt it forward, back-
ward, or sideward. Due to inclination, engine oil may get into the cylinder and
into the combustion engine, which may
result in starting problems and heavy
oil carbonization.
Do not park the grassland mower in
humid rooms, in rooms where fertilizer
is stored, in stables or adjacent rooms
because of severe corrosion.
e)
Protect machine with cloth or a simi-
lar cover.
