User manual HUSQVARNA CTH135

[. . . ] Please read these instructions carefully and make sure you understand them before using this machine. Never allow children or people unfamiliar with the instructions to use the lawnmower. Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their property. Such instruction should emphasize: - the need for care and concentration when working with ride-on machines; - control of a ride-on machine sliding on a slope will not be regained by the application of the brake. [. . . ] Loosen only enough so the brackets keep their position, but allow them to be moved. Move the brackets the amount up or down you wish the bag assembly to move. Make sure that the letter "A" on both the plug and handle are on the same side and that they can both be seen from the top when laying on the ground. Porte (trappe) Arrière 6 Console de support 53 Boulon de support 3/8 1 Contre-ècrou 3/8 Boulon à tête hèxagonale 3/8 x 63, 5 Rondelle plate 10, 3 (13/32") Gauge wheels are properly adjusted when they are slightly off the ground when mower is at the desired cutting height in operating position. Gauge wheels then keep the deck in proper position to help prevent scalping in most terrain conditions. With mower in desired height of cut position, gauge wheels should be assembled so they are slightly off the ground. The throttle control regulates the engine revs and thus the rotation speed of the blades. = Full speed = Idling speed When the pedal is pushed down the brake is applied and the motor is disengaged. There are four different positions for this lever: N = Neutral (no drive) S = Slow F = Fast R = Reverse The lever can be moved steplessly between S and F to ensure the required speed. Move the lever forward to connect the drive to the cutting unit, whereby the drive belt is tensioned and the blades begin to rotate. If the lever is moved backwards the drive will be disconnected and the rotation of the blades slowed down by the action of the brake shoes on the pulley. Quick lifting/lowering of the cutting unit Pull the lever backwards to quickly lift the cutting unit when passing over irregularities in the lawn, etc. During transportation the cutting unit shall be in the highest position. There are three different positions for the ignition key: OFF All electric current broken. Never leave the key in the ignition lock when leaving the machine on its own. To release the parking brake all that is necessary is to push down the brake pedal. To tow or move the tractor without the aid of the engine, the free-wheel control knob must be pulled out and locked in position. The wheel is easier to turn if the lever for lifting/lowering of the cutting unit is pulled backwards at the same time. When the engine is cold the choke should be pulled out before starting. When the engine has started and is running smoothly push the choke in. Do not smoke when filling with petrol or fill up when the engine is warm. The combined oil refilling cap and the oil stick is accessible when the bonnet is lifted forwards. [. . . ] Adjust the distance if necessary by first loosening the lock nut (2) and then adjusting with the nut (1). Remove the two rear retainer springs (2) and knock off the axle taps with a hammer. Work off the belt from the unit's left pulley and then from the other wheels. To achieve best cutting results the cutting unit's front edge (B) should be about 10 mm (0. [. . . ]
