ODUCTION

Dear Customer

Thank y

ou for choosing a Jonsered Frontrider. Jonsered Frontriders are built to a unique design with a front-mounted cutting unit and a patented rear-wheel steering system. FrontRiders are designed for maximum efﬁciency even in small or conﬁned areas. The closely grouped controls and pedal-operated hydrostatic transmission also contribute to the performance of this machine.

This operator’s manual is a valuable document. By following its instructions (on operation, service, maintenance, etc.) you will signiﬁcantly extend the life of the machine and even its second-hand value.

When you sell your Frontrider, make sure you pass on the operator’s manual to the new owner.

The last chapter in the operator’s manual consists of a Service Journal. Make sure that all service work and repairs are recorded. A well-documented service history reduces the costs of seasonal maintenance and inﬂuences the second-hand value of the machine. Bring the operator’s manual with the Frontrider when bringing it to a workshop for service procedures.

• Learn how to use the machine and its controls safely and learn to how to stop quickly. Also learn to recognize the safety decals.

• Only allow the machine to be used by adults who are familiar with its use.

• Make sure nobody else is in the vicinity of the machine when you start the engine, engage the drive or drive off.

• Clear the area of objects such as stones, toys, wires, etc. that may become caught in the blades and be thrown out.

• Look out for the ejector and do not direct it towards anyone.

• Stop the engine and prevent it from starting before you clean the cutting unit.

• Remember that the driver is responsible for dangers or accidents.

• Never carry passengers. The machine is only intended to be used by one person.

• Always look downwards and backwards before and while reversing. Keep watch for both large and small obstacles.

• Slow before cornering.

• Switch off the blades when you are not mowing.

• Take care when rounding a ﬁxed object, so that the blades do not hit it. Never run the machine over foreign objects.

• Only use the machine in daylight or in other well-lit conditions. Keep the machine at a safe distance from holes or other irregularities in the ground. Pay attention to other possible risks.

• Never use the machine if you are tired, if you have consumed alcohol, if you are taking other drugs or medication that can affect your vision, judgement or coordination.

• Never use the machine in bad weather, for instance in fog, in rain, damp or in wet locations,strong winds, intense cold, risk of lightning, etc.

• Keep an eye on the trafﬁc when working close to a road or when crossing it.

• Never leave the machine unsupervised with the engine running. Always stop the blades, apply the parking brake, stop the engine and remove the keys before leaving the machine.

ARNING! This machine produces an electromagnetic ﬁeld during operation. This ﬁeld may under some circumstances interfere with active or passive medical implants.

SAFETY INSTR

UCTIONS

•

Never allow children or other persons not trained in the use of the machine to use or service it. Local laws may regulate the age of the user.

• Use hearing protection to minimise the risk of hearing impairment.

• Never wear loose-ﬁtting clothing, jewellery or similar that can get caught in moving parts.

• Never use the machine when barefoot. Always wear protective shoes or protective boots, preferably with steel toes.

• Make sure that you have ﬁrst aid equipment close at hand when using the machine.

Driving on slopes

iving on slopes is one of the operations where the risk of the driver losing control of the machine or of it overturning is the greatest; this can result in serious injury or death. All slopes demand extra care. If you cannot reverse up a slope or if you feel unsure, do not mow it.

This is what y

ou do

•

Remove obstacles such as stones, branches, etc.

• Mow upwards and downwards, not sideways.

• Do not use the machine on ground that slopes more than

10°.

• Take extra care if any attachments are ﬁtted that can

change the stability of the machine.

• Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the tyres start to

slip, stop the blades and drive slowly down the slope.

• Always drive smoothly and slowly on slopes.

• Do not make any sudden changes in speed or direction.

• Avoid unnecessary turns on slopes, if necessary, turn

slowly and gradually downwards if possible. Drive slowly. Do not turn the wheel sharply.

• Watch out for and avoid driving over furrows, holes and

bumps. It is easier for the machine to overturn on uneven ground. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

• Do not mow too close to edges, ditches or banks. The

machine can suddenly overturn if one wheel comes over the edge of a steep slope or a ditch, or if an edge gives way.

• Do not mow wet grass. It is slippery, and tyres can lose

their grip so that the machine skids.

ARNING! You must use approved personal protective equipment whenever you use the machine. Personal protective equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen. Ask your dealer for help in choosing the right equipment.

IMPOR

TANT INFORMATION

Do not dr

ive down slopes with the cutting deck raised.

English

SAFETY INSTR

UCTIONS

•

Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on the ground.

• When cleaning the chassis, the machine may never be driven near verges or ditches.

• When mowing, keep away from bushes and other objects.

• Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations regarding wheel weights or counterbalance weights to increase machine stability.

Children

•

Serious accidents may occur if you fail to be on your guard for children in the vicinity of the machine. Children are often attracted to the machine and mowing. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

• Keep children away from the area to be mowed and under close supervision by another adult.

• Keep an eye out and shut off the machine if children enter the work area.

• Before and during reversing procedures, look behind you and down for small children.

• Never allow children to ride along. They can fall off and seriously injure themselves or be in the way for safe maneuvering of the machine.

• Never allow children to operate the machine.

• Be particularly careful near corners, bushes, trees or other objects that block your view.

Maintenance

•

Stop the engine. Prevent the engine from starting by removing the ignition key before making any adjustments or performing maintenance.

• Never ﬁll the fuel tank indoors.

• Fuel and fuel vapour are poisonous and highly ﬂammable. Be especially careful when handling petrol and engine oil, as carelessness can result in personal injury or ﬁre.

• Only store fuel in containers approved for the purpose.

• Never remove the fuel cap and ﬁll the fuel tank when the engine is running.

• Allow the engine to cool before refuelling. Do not smoke. Do not ﬁll with fuel in the vicinity of sparks or naked ﬂames.

• Handle oil, oil ﬁlters, fuel and the battery carefully, of environmental considerations. Follow the local recycling requirements.

• Electrical shocks can cause injuries. Do not touch cables when the engine is running. Do not test the ignition system with your ﬁngers.

• If leaks arise in the fuel system, the engine must not be started until the problem has been resolved.

• Store the machine and fuel in such a way that there is no risk that leaking fuel or fumes can cause any damage.

• Check the fuel level before each use and leave space for the fuel to expand, because the heat from the engine and the sun may otherwise cause the fuel to expand and overﬂow.

• Avoid overﬁlling. If you spill petrol on the machine, wipe up the spill and wait until it has evaporated before starting the engine. If you spill on your clothing, change your clothing.

• Allow the machine to cool before performing any actions in the engine compartment.

IMPOR

TANT INFORMATION

Wheel weights ﬁtted on the rear wheels are recommended when driving on slopes for safer steering and improved manoeuvrability. Consult your dealer concerning the use of wheel weights if you are unsure. Wheel weights can not be used on 4x4-machines. Use counterweights.

WARNING! The engine and the exhaust system become very hot during operation. Risk of burn injuries if touched. When mowing, keep away from bushes and other materials in order to avoid a heating effect.
