HECKING THE SAFETY SYSTEMS
Every time before using, check that the safety systems
are working properly. To do so, simulate the various situations of usage shown in
the table on page 26, making sure that the correct result is achieved for each
situation.
C
HECKING THE BRAKING SYSTEM
Make sure that the machine's braking capacity is adequate for the conditions of
usage. Avoid starting the machine if you have doubts on the brake efficiency. If
necessary, adjust the brake and if you still have doubts on its efficiency, consult a
Licensed Service Centre.
B
LADE CHECK
Check that the blade is sharpened properly and firmly fixed to the hub. A badly
sharpened blade pulls at the grass and causes the lawn to turn yellow.
