Emptying The Grass-Catcher; Unblocking The Collector Channel; End Of Mowing; End Of Work - hecht 5161 Translation Of Original Instructions For Use

• Use the 3rd gear only when moving the machine from one area to the other.

EMPTYING THE GRASS-CATCHER

If the cut grass remains on the ground, this means the grass bag is full: Do not let
the grass-catcher become too full as this may block the collector channel.
C NOTE: This operation can only be done with the blades disengaged, otherwise
the engine stops.
1. Disengage the blades.
2. Move to the grass emptying and storage area.
3. Lower the engine speed.
4. Press down the brake pedal to stop the machine.
5. Go into neutral (N) and stop the machine's forward movement.
6. Engage the parking brake on slopes.
7. Hold onto the rear handle and tip up the grass-catcher to empty it (fig. 26).
8. Close the grass-catcher so that it hooks onto the pawl.

UNBLOCKING THE COLLECTOR CHANNEL

B
WARNING! This operation must always be performed with the engine switched
off and the ignition key removed.
Cutting very tall or wet grass, particularly at excessively high speed, can clog up the collector
channel. If this happens proceed as follows:
1. Stop moving forward, disengage the blades and stop the engine.
2. Remove the grass-catcher.
3. Remove the grass cuttings; you can reach them from the exit of the collector channel.

END OF MOWING

When you have finished mowing, disengage the blades, lower the engine speed and ride
the machine with the cutting deck raised as high as possible.
