6.2.1 Before starting work
CHECK THE TYRE PRESSURE
Maintain the prescribed tyre pressure and check it regularly. Maintaining the prescribed tyre pressure is important for
even mowing. Different pressure values may cause difficulty in driving, or even loss of control over the machine.
Air pressure in the front tyres: 150 kPa
Air pressure in the rear tyres: 80 kPa
The difference between the individual tyres may be ± 10 kPa.
CHECK THE OIL LEVEL IN THE ENGINE
Park the riding mower on a horizontal surface. Open the rear hood and unscrew the cap of the filling opening. Screw out
the oil dipstick, wipe it dry, reinsert it and screw in. Then again screw it out and take the oil level reading.
The oil level must be between the two marks on the dipstick. If it is not, fill up with motor oil so that it reaches the "FULL"
mark.
Further details about checking and filling of oil are included in a separate user's manual supplied by the
engine's manufacturer.
CHECK CABLES AND BOLT CONNECTIONS
Visually inspect the condition of cables and manually check the tightness of bolt connections.
CHECK WORKING ORDER OF BRAKES
Check that the brakes work properly. Proceed as follows:
Park the machine on an even surface and turn off the engine.
Step on the brake pedal and engage the parking brake.
Using the by-pass lever disengage the rear wheel drive.
Try to push the machine forward. If the rear wheels rotate, then the brakes need to be serviced. Contact an authorised
service centre to have them adjusted.
