move speed control lever, out of
choke position to obtain desired
engine speed.
Hot engine:
To start engine, place speed control
slightly past slow position, ensure
PTO switch is in the “off” position,
park brake locked or clutch/brake
pedal fully depressed, insert key in
key switch, turn key all the way right
to start (3rd) position, release key
when engine has started. Move
speed control lever to obtain desired
engine speed.
STOPPING ENGINE
When stopping engine, ensure PTO
switch is in the off position, return
speed control to fast position, lock
park brake, turn key switch to the
“off” (1st) position.
DRIVING
To Travel Machine Forward Or
Reverse-
With engine running set speed
control lever to obtain desired
engine speed, ¾ to full speed for
the best mowing finish and for
engine and transmission cooling.
Release park brake, let the clutch/
brake pedal all the way out, apply
downward pressure on front of drive
pedal to travel forward, or apply
downward pressure on back of drive
pedal to travel in reverse. It is not
necessary to apply foot brake before
changing from forward to reverse or
reverse to forward. The amount of
pedal travel is used to control the
ground speed, small downward
travel will give a slow ground speed,
full downward travel will give a fast
ground speed.
NOTE Use slower ground
speed for traveling up and
down slopes, turning, or
mowing heavy growth.
Take care when reversing,
always look in the direction
of intended travel before
changing direction.
To Stop Machine Travel-
Apply clutch/brake pedal fully, this
will disconnect the drive belt to the
transmission before the brake is
activated.

brake linkage may need servicing.
CHECK OPERATION OF SAFETY
SWITCHES:
STARTING
Clutch/Brake switch
With PTO (power take off) switch in disengaged
position (down/off) attempt to start engine without
the clutch/brake pedal depressed. Engine should
not start.
PTO switch
Sit on seat with the clutch/brake pedal fully
depressed and PTO switch engaged (On), attempt
to start engine. Engine should not start.
Key Switch
With PTO switch in down (disengaged/off)
position & clutch/brake pedal fully depressed
turn key switch to start position. Engine
should start.
STOPPING

Key Switch
Sit on seat and start engine, turn key switch to
stop position.
Engine should stop.
CUTTER BRAKE ADJUSTMENT- Automatically
adjusted by permanent magnets on the electro
magnetic clutch/brake.
CUTTER HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT- Stop engine,
ensure mowing attachment blades have
stopped rotating, disconnect spark plug lead
from spark plug and ground it, disconnect
battery at negative terminal, to prevent
accidental starting. If the Mowing Attachment
can not be positioned to give a satisfactory
grass cut height using the available notches on
the cut height mechanism, position the mower
on a smooth level surface, lock the park brake
on, and lower the Mowing Attachment to the
notch above the desired cut height. Place 3
equal height spacers (that can support the
mowing attachments weight) , of the desired
height, under the mowing attachment one on
each side at the lower front adjacent to the cut
-out & one at the middle of the back and lower
the Mowing Attachment onto them. Loosen the
2 short screws located together on the front of
the rear suspension mount. Push the rear link
rearwards until it stops and retighten the 2
screws. Lift the Mowing attachment off the
spacers and remove the spacers and check the
cut height is as desired and the deck is level to
slightly higher (3—5 mm) at the back. Adjust
height again if required.
REPLACE BLADES- Stop engine, ensure mowing
attachment blades have stopped rotating,
disconnect spark plug lead from spark plug and
ground it, disconnect battery at negative terminal,
to prevent accidental starting. Check condition of
cutter disc remove the blade nut using a suitable
spanner (if using a socket remove the blanking
grommet to gain access to the blade nut) and
replace all blades, bolts, nuts and washers to
preserve balance, tighten blade nut to (3640Nm). Do not over tighten. Re-fit blanking
grommet if removed.
TO REMOVE MOWING ATTACHMENT –
Stop engine, ensure mowing attachment blades
have stopped rotating, and spark plug lead is
disconnected & grounded, disconnect battery
negative terminal to prevent accidental starting,
disconnect the belt tensioning spring (front left
hand side of mowing attachment). Lower mowing
attachment onto 20mm block front and rear.
Remove cutter belt from engine pulley. Remove
two M10 x 50mm bolts, nuts & washers from
mower suspension link at rear of the mowing
attachment. Remove mowing attachment pivot pin
lock screw and nut (6mm) and remove mowing
attachment pivot pin. Remove the M8x35mm bolt
from the cradle frame attachment bracket. Turn
the front wheels a little to the left and twist the
mowing attachment to the right and slide the deck
from under the mower ro the right side.
Re-assemble in reverse order. To assist in refitting
mowing attachment pivot pin, raise the mowing
attachment slightly. Refit mower suspension link &
lifting links and M10x50mm bolts, nuts and
washers. Refit cutter belt, connect belt tensioning
spring and refit spark plug lead and battery
terminal.
BATTERY MAINTENANCE- Batteries can be
dangerous as they contain acids (corrosive
chemicals), flammable vapours, large amounts of
stored electrical energy, which may cause
chemical burns, explosions or fires. Where
goggles and a protective face guard. Remove
jewellery/watches before handling the battery.
Do not perform any battery maintenance where
there are open flames or the possibility of sparks.
Always work in a well ventilated area. Ensure the
top of the battery is clean and dry (free of dirt and
grime) as a dirty battery can discharge across the
top of the battery casing. Inspect the terminals,
screws and cables for breakage, damage or loose
connections and they are clean, tight and free of
corrosion. When not in use, a battery
discharges by as much as 1% a day, more
when the climate is warm. To make up for this
loss, a boosting charge should be given once a
month. Disconnect battery terminals (negative
terminal first) to charge, then allow to stand
minimum 1/2hr before re-connecting (negative
terminal first). If a battery is not used for a
period of more than three (3) months, the
terminals should be disconnected and trickle
charged at two (2) amps for two (2) hours
once every three (3) months or before use. At
the end of any maintenance ensure the battery
is securely fastened in place, especially if it has
been removed.
