Stopping The Motor (Illustration F + K2 ); Emergency Stopping; Grass Collector; Operation With Grass Collector - Sabo 43-PRO ACCU Manual Del Operador

11 STOPPING THE MOTOR (ILLUSTRATION F + K2 )

– Release the safety control bar F .
– Wait for the cutter bar to come to a standstill.
– Remove the safety key K2 .

12 EMERGENCY STOPPING

Release the safety grip.
– The blade will stop.
– The motor will stop.
ATTENTION
Before every mowing job, make sure that the motor stop safety control bar is
working perfectly.
– When the safety control bar is released, the cutter must come to a standstill
within 3 seconds.
If this is not the case, please consult your nearest authorised workshop.

13 GRASS COLLECTOR

Operation with grass collector

WARNING
When operating the equipment with a collecting bag, the bag must be completely
assembled and in technically perfect condition.
IMPORTANT
Make sure that the chute (1) R1 is not bent when handling the collector.
While mowing, ensure that the collector is emptied in good time. The turbo signal on the
collector will indicate when the collector should be emptied.
Turbo signal (shows when the grass collector is full)
(Illustration J + K )
There is an indicator on the top of the collector that shows whether the collector is
empty or full:
– The collector indicator inflates if the collector is empty and during the mowing J .
– If the collector is full, the indicator collapses; once this happens, stop mowing
immediately and empty the collector K .
IMPORTANT
If the fabric of the grass collector is very dirty the turbo indicator will not inflate –
in this case, clean the fabric immediately. The grass collector will only collect
grass perfectly if it is permeable to air.
IMPORTANT
Do not clean the grass collector with hot water!

Emptying the grass collecting bag (Illustration F + L )

– Switch the motor off F , wait until the cutter bar comes to a standstill.
– Lift the ejection flap.
– Unhook the filled grass collecting bag by the handle – the ejector flap closes
automatically.
– Hold the collecting bag firmly by the handle on the bottom and shake thoroughly to
empty it L .

Operation without grass collector

WARNING
When mowing without grass collector the ejection flap on the mower housing
must always be closed (flap down).

NOTE
If there is insufficient battery charge, the motor automatically switches off. Please
charge the battery promptly.

Mowing on slopes

ATTENTION
Do not mow excessively steep slopes! Mowing slopes always means additional
risks. Mow at right-angles to the slope, never up and down.
Always make sure you have a firm stance. Manually guided lawnmowers should
never be used for gradients of more than 26% (15° slope). Stability may be lost.

Checking operating safety

The lawn mower is equipped with a motor stop device.
Before every mowing job, make sure that the motor stop safety control bar is working
perfectly. When the safety control bar is released, the cutter bar must come to a
standstill within 3 seconds.
After release, the safety control bar must always return to the position shown in the
"component description" diagram.
If this is not the case, it must be checked immediately by an authorised workshop.
Risk of injury!
If the blade run-on time is longer, stop using the equipment and take it to an authorised
workshop.
Measuring run-on time
After the motor has been started, the blade rotates and a wind-like noise can be heard.
The run-on time corresponds to the duration of the wind-like noise after the motor has
been switched off, it can be measured using a stopwatch.
Machine safety and protective devices must not be manipulated or disabled.
Make sure that all protective devices have been attached properly and are not
damaged.
To avoid risk, check the condition and firm attachment of the blade before every
mowing job. The blade attachment screw must always be tightened by an authorised
workshop. If the blade screw is too tight or too loose, the blade fastening and cutter bar
can become damaged or loose which can lead to serious injuries. A worn or damaged
cutter must be replaced (see chapter "Maintenance of the cutter bar").
In addition, check the fan, cutter fastening and fan housing every 10 operating hours for
wear and a tight fit. Also check equipment screws and nuts for a firm fit and tighten if
necessary.
If the mower mechanism becomes blocked e.g. by colliding with an obstacle, have an
authorised workshop check whether any parts of the mower are damaged or deformed.
Always have any necessary repairs done by an authorised workshop too.
If the machine starts to vibrate unusually heavily or to make unusual noises, please
have it checked immediately by an authorised workshop.

Automatic speed increase

In difficult mowing conditions, such as high grass, the cutter motor automatically
increases its speed from 2800 to 3000 rpm.
As soon as the mowing conditions return to normal, the speed decreases again
automatically to the standard setting of 2800 rpm.

Time restrictions

In Germany, the set hours for operating lawnmowers are regulated in the "32nd
Ordinance implementing the Federal Emissions Protection Act (32nd BImSch-V)".
In addition, there may be regional restrictions (e.g. to protect midday peace), which can
be issued by the respective local authority.

Tips on caring for your lawn (Illustration M )

WARNING
Remove any objects (stones, wood, branches, etc.) from the lawn before each
cut; but still watch out for objects lying around during the mowing process.
Ask your dealer about lawn care instructions. Information and instructions about
mowing can also be found on the manufacturer website.
