- Travel direction pedal: when disengaged, it must be in neutral position. If finding the neutral
position is difficult (which is an essential requirement to start the engine up), contact an authorised
workshop.
- Rotor braking: when the rotor is disengaged, the flail rotor must stop completely within 7 seconds.
If this does not happen, contact an authorised workshop to adjust the brake.
- Check on safety systems for start-up consent:
- If the operator is not correctly seated, the engine must not start. Conversely, when the engine is
on, check that getting off the seat causes to machine to turn off.
- If the rotor engagement lever [#6 in Chap. 6a] is in "PTO ON" position, the engine must not start.
- If the travel direction pedal [#1 in Chap. 6a] is in forward or reverse position, the engine must not
start.
- Leak check on parts such as: petrol tank, hydraulic oil tank and their hoses; engine block, carburetor,
hydraulic system. If leaks are detected, do not start the machine and contact the service centre.
- Banding check, more specifically: on oil hoses, petrol hose, manifold and muffler. If any component is
loose, fasten everything before turning the machine on.
IT IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT to check the presence of leaks on the hydraulic system: the oil can reach a
peak pressure up to 500 bar!
- Check the following levels:
- Engine oil at the right level, clean air filter, flywheel cover free from debris
- Tank with enough petrol inside
- Oil for hydrostatic transmission at the right level in its tank
See details in Chap. 7 "Maintenance".
- Visual check of electrical fuses: replace if broken.
Before each use, check that all safety warnings are present on the machine. It is forbidden to use it before
restoring missing or unreadable pictograms and markings.
If something is missing, broken, out of its place or faulty ► immediately contact your retailer and DO NOT
USE the machine for any reason.
