3. PREPARING THE MOWER FOR OPERATION
3.1 UNPACKING AND INSPECTING THE CONTENTS
The riding mower is supplied on a wooden pallet in a package made from wooden boards. For transportation reasons some mower
assemblies are disassembled at the production plant and it is necessary to install them before putting the mower into operation. The
unpacking and preparation for operation is performed by the seller within the scope of the pre-sale service.
Inspect immediately after delivery that the packed mower has not been damaged. In the event of damage inform the
carrier. If the complaint is not lodged in time, no potential demands can be claimed.
Check that the mower model is the same as you ordered. In the event of an irregularity do not unpack the mower and
immediately report this discrepancy to the supplier.
3.2 HANDLING THE DELIVERY
The package must only be handled by means of a forklift truck or pallet mover. Slide the forks into the hole in the pallet and move the
mower to your selected location for its assembly or storage. Always transport only a single package.
The minimum load bearing capacity of the handling equipment is:
The wooden crate is not intended to be lifted by means of a crane.
Only persons with relevant authorisation and experience with the operation of the handling equipment may use it.
Due to the considerable weight of the packaged mower, we recommend at least two people for its handling.
3.3 STORAGE BEFORE UNPACKING
In the event that the mower will not be unpacked and assembled immediately upon deliver, store it under the following
conditions:
- Store the mower in its original packaging in a dry area protected against the effects of weather, which could result in the damage
of the packaging and deterioration of condition.
- Do not tilt the wooden package on its side or, worse still, turn it upside down. Do not place any items on to the package from which
liquids could potentially leak.
- Do not disassemble the mower from the pallet and do not turn it on its side and do not lean it in a diagonal position.
- Do not place any other items or materials on to the packed mower.
- In the event that multiple packed mowers are stored, a maximum of four packages may be stored on top of each other, and during
transport, only a maximum of two packages may be stored on top of each other.
Recommended storage location specifications:
Temperature from -10 °C to +35 °C
Air humidity <80 % at 21 °C
Air cleanliness Dust-free environment
Other Dry storage location
3.4 UNPACKING
► First remove the wooden boards using a suitable tool (crowbar, hammer, etc.), remove all the separately packaged assemblies
and then finally remove all the securing elements and packaging materials. Ensure that no part of the mower or its assemblies are
damaged.
► Visually inspect the mower and the separate assemblies for damage that may have occurred during transport. In the event of
any type of damage, immediately contact the supplier and do not continue with the assembly of the mower.
After unpacking everything, ensure that the packaging material is properly disposed of. The disposal must conform to relevant waste
disposal laws valid in your country. In the event that you are unsure about the disposal procedure, have this performed by a specialised
company.
