SAFETY 3 3.1 HOW TO OPERATE SAFELY___________________________________________________ WARNING EQUIPMENT OPERATED INCORRECTLY OR WITHOUT TRAINING CAN BE DANGEROUS. Know the location and correct operation of controls. Operators without experience must receive instruction from another person that knows the correct operation of the equipment before you operate the mower. Only use parts, accessories and attachments approved by Jacobsen.
3 SAFETY Inspect the cutting system before you start the mower. Make sure the blades are free to rotate. When you rotate one blade, other blades can rotate. 3.1.3 Operation Never operate the engine without enough ventilation or in an enclosed area. The carbon monoxide in the exhaust fumes can increase to dangerous levels.
SAFETY 3 3.1.4 ROPS The ROPS is a safety device. Keep the ROPS in the vertical and locked position. Always use the seat belt when you operate the mower. Make sure the seat belt can be released quickly in an emergency. The ROPS should only be folded if absolutely necessary for storage or when working on flat ground under low obstructions.
3 SAFETY When the mower is parked, put into storage or left without an operator, lower the cutting device unless a positive mechanical lock is used. When you put the mower on a trailer or put the mower in storage, close the fuel valve. Do not keep fuel near flames or drain the fuel inside a building.
SAFETY 3 3.1.8 Important Safety Notes This safety alert symbol is used to alert you to possible hazards. DANGER: Indicates a dangerous condition that WILL cause death or injury unless it is prevented. WARNING: Indicates a dangerous condition that CAN cause death or injury unless it is prevented.

8 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION HYDRAULIC SYSTEM __________________________________________________ Drain and replace the hydraulic oil if one of the following occur. • Component failure • Water or foam is in the hydraulic fluid • The hydraulic fluid has a rancid odor (indication of high heat) •...
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8 HYDRAULIC FILTER ___________________________________________________ The hydraulic system is protected by two 10 micron filters. Flow through the filter is monitored while you operate the mower. When the difference in hydraulic pressure across the filter is greater than 16 to 20 psi (1.1 to 1.4 BAR), the hydraulic oil filter warning light on the combination gauge will illuminate.
8 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION HYDRAULIC TEST PORTS ______________________________________________ If you have any problems with the hydraulic system, check the hydraulic pressures with the service ports that are supplied. All tests must be done with the hydraulic oil at the normal temperature of the engine, unless specified at a different temperature.
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8 FUEL________________________________________________________________ Diesel fuel is flammable. Use caution when you add the fuel to the mower. Only use an approved container. The spout on the container must fit inside the fuel filler neck. Never use the containers that are not approved to keep or transfer fuel.
8 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8.10 FUEL SYSTEM ________________________________________________________ Use Diesel to B.S. EN590 or ASTM D975 (Ultra Low Sulfur) Water Separator If the water is not removed from the fuel, damage to the fuel-injection system can occur. When the fuel filter light on the filter light module is illuminated or at service interval, drain the water from the water separator.
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8 8.11 AIR CLEANER ________________________________________________________ Check the service indicator each day. If the red band become visible in the window, replace the filter elements. Do not remove the elements to inspect or clean. Removal of the filter that is not necessary increases the risk of dust and other particles to enter the engine.
8 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8.12 BATTERY ____________________________________________________________ Before you service the battery, make sure the ignition switch is in the OFF position and the key is removed. CAUTION When you service the battery, always use the tools with insulation, wear protective glasses and protective clothing.

The battery can release hydrogen gas that is explosive. To prevent an explosion, keep any device that can cause sparks or flames away from the battery.
8 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8.14 ENGINE EXHAUST __________________________________________________________ WARNING The exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide. The carbon monoxide in the exhaust fumes can increase to dangerous levels. To protect you from carbon monoxide poisoning, inspect the complete exhaust system every month and replace damaged components immediately. NEVER operate the engine without enough ventilation.
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8 8.15 DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER __________________________________________ During the operation of the mower, the level of particle material will increase in the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) system. The periodic Regen of the DPF system is needed to remove particle material. During an Active or Parked Regen, the engine will use more fuel.
Page 94
8 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION operated at level 4 without a Regen for approximately 1 to 1-1/2 hours, the engine controller will change to Level Level 5 - High Exhaust Temperature display will flash quickly. The engine power output is decreased significantly. An authorized Kubota Engine Service Center must clean the DPF before the mower is used.
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8 8.16 HYDRAULIC HOSES_________________________________________________________ WARNING To prevent injury from the hot, high pressure oil, never use your hands to check for oil leaks. Use the paper or cardboard to find leaks. The hydraulic fluid pressure can have enough force to enter your skin. If hydraulic fluid has entered your skin, a doctor must remove the hydraulic fluid surgically within a few hours or gangrene can occur.
8 MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8.17 TIRES _______________________________________________________________ Keep the tires correctly inflated to increase tire life. Inspect the tread wear. Check the tire pressure each day, while the tires are cool. Use an accurate low-pressure tire gauge. Keep tires inflated at the correct pressure (see section 8.1) CAUTION DO NOT try to put a tire on a rim unless you have the correct training, tools and experience.
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 8 8.19 BLADE CHANGE ______________________________________________________ Front Cutter Deck Raise the deck to the cross cut position.
