Lubricants and
Anti-Corrosive Agents
Use the specified lubricants for engine
and gearbox (see “Specifications”).
We recommend using bio-lubricating
oil or bio-lubricating grease f or “open”
lubricating points or nipples (as specified in the operating instructions).
We recommend using bio-slushing oil
for preservation of machines and implements (do not apply on painted external covers). Oil can be brushed or
sprayed on.
Anti-corrosive agents are environmentally friendly and degrade fast. Using
ecologically safe bio-lubricants and bioanti-corrosives, you contribute to environmental protection and to the wellbeing of humans, animals and plants.
Maintenance and
Repair
The trained mechanics of your AGRIA
workshop carry out expert maintenance
and repair.
You should only carr y 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.
Recommendations
Fuel
The 4-stroke-engine runs on commer-
cial unleaded regular and supergrade
petrol as well as on leaded supergrade
petrol.
Do not add oil to petrol.
The 2-stroke-engine runs on commer-
cial oil-petrol mixtures (for the speci-
fied stoichiometric ratio refer to ”Specifications”). For the fuel mixture unleaded
regular and supergrade petrol as well
as leaded supergrade petrol can be
used. However, only use self-mixing
special 2-stroke-engine oil (refer to
“Specifications”).
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 to the fuel.
When storing the 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”.

3. Devices and Operating Elements
The power mower A GRIA 5400 is suited
for common horticultural, agricultural,
and forestal operations, for grass and
park maintenance and for winter service operation.
The following attachments are a vailable:
l
Cutter bars in various versions and
for various work widths
l
Snow dozers
l
A range of accessories, e.g. strake
wheels; refer to price list
Engine
l
The four-stroke petrol engine runs on
commercial petrol.
l
The two-stroke-petrol engine Rotax
232 runs on commercial petrol/oil mixture of a stoichoimetric ratio 1:50.
I
Note! Only use self-mixing spe-
cial 2-stroke engine oil (“see
Specifications”).
l
Also, refer to “Fuel Recommendations”, p4.
During the first 20 operating hours
(break-in period) do not use engine to
maximum power.
Even after break-in period never use
engine at higher speed than necessary
for the work in hand.
I
High engine speed is harmful to any engine and considerably affects its durabil-
ity . This applies especially for no load
operation. Any overspeed (have the
engine roar) can result in immediate
damage.
Cooling System
Cooling system is fan-cooled. Theref ore
keep grille at recoil starter and cooling
ribs of cylinder clean and free from
sucked-in plant trash.
Always ensure that idling-speed is adjusted correcty. 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.
Speed Control Lever
The speed control lever (B/9) on the
steering handle is for stepless setting
of engine speed from min. = idle to max.
= full throttle.

Position "0" = Engine off
I
The engine-off-switch also
serves as emengency-off-
switch. Set the switch to “0” for
fast switch-off.
Safety Circuit
The power mower is equipped with a
safety switch (lever B/2). When releasing the lever, the ignition system is
turned off (engine is off).
l
Stop position: When releasing the
lev er , the ignition system is s witched off
(engine is off). Beware – engine keeps
running due to centrifugal mass.
l
Start position: For starting the engine and for short breaks, pull the clutch
hand lever (B/3) and fasten with pawl.
l
Operating position: To operate the
machine press safety lever (B/2).
W

Release the safety le ver f or fast
engine switch-off. The lever automatically goes to STOP position.
Clutch
The mower is equipped with a dry bevel
clutch. Operation is via the clutch hand
lever (B/3).
The machine is decoupled when you
pull the clutch hand
lever. Now, the engine
stops driving the
mower. The pulled
clutch hand lever can
be locked with pawl
(B/4).
T o avoid clutch slipping aw ay during operation, a clutch play of 3–5 mm is factory-set on the hand lever (refer to “Maintenance”).
After the first operating hour, the clutch
play has to be checked and, if necessary, re-adjusted (refer to “Maintenance”).
I
Always park mower with hand
clutch lever pulled (pawl
locked in place). Otherwise,
clutch problems may result due to
corrosion.
