Safe Operation Practices
For Ride-On (Riding) Rotary Mower Machines
Training
Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the 1.
controls and the proper use of the equipment.
Never allow children or people unfamiliar with these 2.
instructions to use the mower. Local regulations may
restrict the age of the operator.
Never mow while people, especially children, or pets 3.
are nearby.
Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible 4.
for accidents or hazards occur ring to other people or
their property.
Do not carry passengers. 5.
All drivers should seek and obtain pro fessional 6.
and practical instruction. Such instruction should
emphasize:
the need for care and concentration when working a.
with ride-on machines;
control of a ride-on machine sliding on a slope will b.
not be regained by the application of the brake. The
main reasons for loss of control are:
insufficient wheel grip; t
being driven too fast; t
inadequate braking;t
the type of machine is unsuitable for its task; t
lack of awareness of the effect of ground t
conditions, especially slopes;
incorrect hitching and load dis tribution. t
Preparation
While mowing, always wear substantial footwear and 1.
long trousers. Do not operate the equipment when
barefoot or wearing open sandals.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to 2.
be used and remove all ob jects which may be thrown
by the machine.
WARNING – Petrol is highly flammable. 3.
Store fuel in containers specifically de signed for a.
this purpose.
Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while b.
refuelling.
Add fuel before starting the engine. Never remove c.
the cap of the fuel tank or add petrol while the
engine is run ning or when the engine is hot.
If petrol is spilled, do not attempt to start the d.
engine but move the machine away from the area
of spillage and avoid creating any source of ignition
until petrol vapours have dissipated.
Replace all fuel tanks and container caps securely. e.
Replace faulty silencers. 4.
Before using, always visually inspect to see that the 5.
blades, blade bolts and cutter as sembly are not worn or
damaged. Replace worn or damaged blades and bolts
in sets to preserve balance.
On multi-blade machines, take care as ro tating one 6.
blade can cause other blades to rotate.
Operation
Do not operate the engine in a confined space where 1.
dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
Mow only in daylight or in good artificial light. 2.
Before attempting to start the engine, dis engage all 3.
blade attachment clutches and shift into neutral.
Do not use on slopes of more than 10 de grees. 4.
Remember there is no such thing as a “safe” slope. 5.
Travel on grass slopes re quires particular care. To
guard against overturning:
do not stop or start suddenly when going up or a.
downhill;
engage clutch slowly, always keep machine in gear, b.
especially when tra velling downhill;
machine speeds should be kept low on slopes and c.
during tight turns;
stay alert for humps and hollows and other hidden d.
hazards;
never mow across the face of the slope, unless the e.
mower is designed for this purpose.

disengage the power take-off and lower the a.
attachments;
change into neutral and set the park ing brake; b.
stop the engine and remove the key. c.
Disengage drive to attachments, stop the engine, 13.
and disconnect the spark plug wire(s) or remove the
ignition key:
before cleaning blockages or unclog ging chute; a.
before checking, cleaning or working on the mower; b.
after striking a foreign object. Inspect the mower c.
for damage and make re pairs before restarting and
operating the equipment;
if the machine starts to vibrate abnor mally (check d.
immediately).
Disengage drive to attachments when transporting or 14.
not in use.
Stop the engine and disengage drive to at tachment:15.
before refuelling; a.
before removing the grass catcher; b.
before making height adjustment un less adjustment c.
can be made from the operator’s position.
Reduce the throttle setting during engine run-out and, 16.
if the engine is provided with a shut-off valve, turn the
fuel off at the con clusion of mowing.
Before and when backing, look 17. behind and down for
small children.
Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, 18.
trees or other objects that may obscure vision.
Maintenance and Storage
On multi-blade machines, take care as ro tating one 1.
blade can cause other blades to rotate.
When machine is to be parked, stored or left 2.
unattended, lower the cutting means unless a positive
mechanical lock is used.
Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the 3.
equipment is in safe working condition.
Never store the equipment with petrol in the tank inside 4.
a building where fumes may reach an open flame or
spark.
Allow the engine to cool before storing in any 5.
enclosure.
To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine, silencer, 6.
battery compartment and petrol storage area free of
grass, leaves, or ex cessive grease.
Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or 7.
deterioration.
Replace worn or damaged parts for safety. 8.

Check The Tyres
Check the air pressure in the tyres. Tyres with too much air
pressure will cause the unit to ride rough. Also, the wrong
air pressure will keep the mower housing from cutting level.
The correct air pressure is: Front Tyres 0,97 BAR (14 PSI),
Rear Tyres 0,69 BAR (10 PSI).

Storage
WARNING: Never store the unit (with fuel) in an
enclosed, ventilated structure. Fuel vapors can
travel to an ignition source (such as a furnace,
water heater, etc.) and cause an explosion. Fuel
vapor is also toxic to humans and animals.
When Storing Fuel Or Equipment With Fuel In Tank
t 4UPSFBXBZGSPNGVSOBDFTTUPWFTXBUFSIFBUFSTPS
appliances that have pilot lights or other ignition sources
because they can ignite fuel vapors.
Equipment
Battery life will be increased if it is removed. Put in a cool,
dry place and fully charged about once a month. If the
battery is left in the unit, disconnect the negative cable.
Fuel System
Fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel
causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system or
on essential carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh, use Briggs
& Stratton FUEL FIT® fuel stabilizer, available as a liquid
additive or a drip concentrate cartridge.
There is no need to drain gasoline from the engine if a fuel
stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the engine
for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizer throughout the fuel
system. The engine and fuel can then be stored up to 24
months.
If gasoline in the engine has not been treated with a fuel
stabilizer, it must be drained into an approved container.
Run the engine until it stops from lack of fuel. The use of a
fuel stabilizer in the storage container is recommended to
maintain freshness.
Engine Oil
While the engine is still warm, change the engine oil. See the
Engine Manual.
