INTRODUCTION

Introduction
Congratulations
Thank you for purchasing a Husqvana ride-on mower. This machine is built for the greatest effi­ciency and rapid mowing of large areas. Convenient controls and a hydrostatic transmission regu­lated by steering levers also contribute to the machine’s performance.
This 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.
If you sell your machine, be 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 well kept service journal reduces service costs of the season-based maintenance and affects the machine’s resale value. Take the operator’s manual along when the machine is left at the service center for service.
General
In this operator’s manual, left and right, backward and forward are used in relation to the machine’s normal driving direction.
Driving and Transport on Public Roads
Check applicable road traffic regulations before driving and transporting on public roads. If the machine is transported, you should always use approved fastening equipment and ensure that the machine is well anchored.
Operating
This machine is constructed only for mowing grass on lawns and other free and even ground without obstacles such as stones, tree stubs, etc. The machine can also be used for other tasks when equipped with special accessories provided by the manufacturer, for which the operating instructions are provided in conjunction with delivery. All other types of use are incorrect. The manufacturer’s directions concerning operation, maintenance, and repairs must be carefully fol­lowed.
The machine must only be operated, maintained, and repaired by persons that are familiar with the machine’s special characteristics and who are well versed in the safety instructions.
Accident prevention regulations, other general safety regulations, occupational safety rules, and traffic regulations must be followed without fail.
Unauthorized modifications to the design of the machine may absolve the manufacturer from liability for any resulting personal injury or property damage.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Driving on Slopes
Driving on slopes is one of the operations where the risk is greatest that the driver will lose control or the machine will tip over, which can result in serious injury or death. All slopes require extra caution. If you cannot reverse up a slope or if feel unsure, do not mow the slope.
Do as follows:
Remove obstacles such as stones, tree
branches, etc.
Mow up and down, not side-to-side.
Never drive the rider on terrain that slopes
more than 10°.
Avoid starting or stopping on a slope, If the
tires begin to slip, shut down the blades and drive slowly down the slope.
Always drive evenly and slowly on slopes.
6003-004
Mow up and down, not side-to-side.
Make no sudden changes in speed or direc-
tion.
Avoid unnecessary turns on slopes, and if it
proves necessary, turn slowly and gradually downward, if possible.
Watch out for and avoid driving over furrows,
holes, and bumps. On uneven terrain, the machine can tip more easily. Long grass can hide obstacles.
Drive slowly. Use small movements of the
steering controls.
Be extra cautious with any additional equip-
ment, which can alter the machine’s stability.
Do not mow near verges, ditches, or banks.
The machine can suddenly spin around if a wheel goes over the edge of a drop or ditch, or if an edge gives way.
Do not mow wet grass. It is slippery, and the
tires can lose their grip, so that the machine slides.
8011-519
Be extra cautious when driving on slopes.
Try not to stabilize the machine by putting a
foot on the ground.
When cleaning the chassis, the machine may
never be driven near verges or ditches.
