User manual JONSERED LTH 16

[. . . ] On multi-bladed machines, take care as rotating one blade can cause other blades to rotate. Do not operate the engine in a confined space where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect. â· Before attempting to start the engine, disengage all blade attachment clutches and shift into neutral. To guard against overturning; - do not stop or start suddenly when going up or downhill; - engage clutch slowly, always keep machine in gear, especially when traveling downhill; - machine speeds should be kept low on slopes and during tight turns; - stay alert for humps and hollows and other hidden hazards; - never mow across the face of the slope, unless the lawnmower is designed for this purpose. [. . . ] 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. Ignition Lock There are three different positions for the ignition key: OFF ON START 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 freewheel control knob must be pulled out and locked in position with the needle spring. The wheel is easier to turn if the lever for lifting/lowering of the cutting unit is pulled backwards at the same time. The needle should move towards + as an indication that the battery is charging. When the headlights are on this does not give a reading on the meter since they have their own power supply (not connected to battery). 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. SAE 5W-30 oil should be used during the winter (below freezing point). Make sure that the cutting unit is in the transport position (top position) and that the lever for connection/disconnection of the cutting unit is in the disconnection position. If the engine will not start, wait about 10 seconds before the next try. When the engine has started let the ignition key go back to the "ON position". To ensure proper operation and performance, it is recommended that the transmission be purged before operating tractor for the first time. This procedure will remove any trapped air inside the transmission which may have developed during shipping of your tractor. â· Move motion control lever to full forward position and hold for five (5) seconds. â· Drive tractor forward for approximately five feet then backwards for five feet. The machine is equipped with a safety switch which immediately breaks the current to the engine if the driver leaves the seat with engine running and with the connection/disconnec tion lever in position "connection". Driving Warm up the engine for a few minutes with the throttle at half-speed. Connect the cutting unit and move the motion control lever to the required position.
