FD2200 4WD/ Translation of the original instructions
LIFTING HOOKS AND TRANSPORT
The lifting hooks (fig. 34) location enables the machine complete with the cutting deck to be perfectly
balanced if it must be lifted up with a crane.
Check the machine's weight on the serial number plate and use only suitable equipment (ramps, cranes,
etc.).
If the machine is carried with a lorry or with a towed trailer, set the cutting deck at a low position,
apply the parking brake and tie it up to the means of transport using ropes, cables, or chains.
STORAGE AND LACK OF USE FOR LONG PERIODS
Store the machine in a dry environment, sheltered from the elements and, if possible, covered up.
If the mower will not be used for a long period (more than one month), disconnect the red battery lead and
follow the directions given in the engine manual; in addition grease all the joints. Check regularly that the
battery voltage has not dropped below 12.5 Volts and if necessary, recharge it.

IMPLEMENTS

150 cm GRASS SHREDDER
This grass shredder (fig. 41) is very useful for cleaning countryside with tall, wild grass. It allows a fine
shredding making collection unnecessary.
It comes equipped with "Y" shaped tines as a standard feature, also suitable for shredding small pruned
branches.
It can be fitted with grass blades to have a cutting quality equal to that of a lawnmower, or converted into
scarifier by changing the tines with scarifier blades.
To make the finish in small spaces, if the front wheels and their supports are too bulky, they can be removed:
you will work then with the grass shredder resting on the rear roller.
It is applied in the same way as the lawnmower. Be careful to fit the universal joint into the grooved shaft.
Regularly check the belts' tension at the side of the grass shredder. The correct spring length adjustment is
70 mm (fig. 45). If the grass shredder vibrates, check the tines.
If the grass is very high and you notice an excessive power absorption, it is advisable to take off the contra-
rotating blade, which is positioned in the inner part of the grass shredder casing.
ATTENTION! During work, please keep people away; do not work with the implement on gravel or foreign
bodies, which could be thrown away, becoming very dangerous.
160 cm LPM CUTTING DECK
The 160 cm LPM cutting deck (fig. 42) is a 3-blade deck, width 1600 mm, the total width with side discharge
baffle is 1920 mm, without baffle is 1700 mm. It has got 3 different functions:
1) Side discharge;
2) Rear discharge;
3) Mulching.
To get from one function to another, it is not necessary to change the blades but only the augers, which are
located in the inner part of the cutting deck (fig. 43).
Choose the most suitable function, considering the places where you have to work and the grass height.
We kindly advise you to use the mulching configuration if you have to cut grass which is 10/12 cm high; the
rear configuration if you do not want that the cutting grass is thrown on streets or paths and the lateral
configuration if the grass is not very high and you have to use it in wide spaces, so that during work you
throw the cut grass upon the grass which has still to be cut. This way the cutting deck cuts the grass several
times, grinding it finely (pay attention not to work when the engine is stressed).
Periodically check the belt tension and eventually adjust the spring register (fig. 44, ref. B).
Lubricate the blade shafts (fig. 44, ref. A) with grease every 40 hours.
Change the oil in the angle gearbox every 300 hours, using synthetic oil LSX 75W90 (international brand
API GLA+GL5; API MT1 and PG2; MIL-L-2150 D).
