TYRE MAINTENANCE
The product is equipped with tubeless tyres. When tyres are
worn, the traction of the mower decreases, which increases
the chance of having an accident. Replace the tyres when
the depth on the tread is 4 mm or less, or any time there is
damage to the tyre. Always use original replacement tyres.
Using incorrect tyres on the product could cause loss of
control, which could cause serious personal injury.
Have the tyres replaced only by an authorised service
centre.
TYRE AIR PRESSURE
Check the air pressure in all four tyres before each use.
Improper air pressure affects handling, steering response,
traction, tyre life, level cutting, and operator comfort.
Make sure that tyres are inflated to the recommended air
pressure. Refer to the specifications table for tyre pressure
requirements.

Original Instructions
The tyre air pressure should only be measured or adjusted
when tyres are cold.
TYRE REPAIR
If a leak or flat tyre occurs due to a puncture, the tyre may
be repaired using a plug-type patch. If the damage is from
a cut, or if the puncture cannot be repaired using a plug,
replace the tyre.
BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
See page 23.
If the mower travels further before stopping when stepping
on the brake pedal, the brakes need adjusting.
After final adjustment, test the brakes by driving the mower
at normal speed on flat ground to be sure that the mower
stops quickly when brake pedal is stepped on.
CLEARING BLOCKAGES
■
Turn off the product, engage the parking brake,
and remove the start key. Set the cutting deck to the
maximum height. Make sure that all moving parts have
come to a complete stop.
■
Always wear heavy-duty gloves when checking or
clearing a blockage. The blades are sharp and the
blockage itself could be a sharp object.
■
Check and carefully clear the side discharge chute for
blockages. Remember that the blade may move during
cleaning.
