3) ROTOR WASHING using the supplied hose holder: screw
it in the seats on the deck sides, fix the water hose and
fasten it with a band. Open the jet, step on the machine
and, while starting the engine, engage the rotor so it can
be properly washed while turning. Note: pay the utmost
attention: object projection and exhaust gas inhalation
hazard. These operations must be performed outdoors,
making sure to keep the deck in its lowest position.
Repeat the operation on the opposite side. Remember to remove the sleeve before starting to work!!!
4) INSPECTION OF ROTOR BLADES and their possible replacement (use
work gloves!). Keep in mind that:
- A single blade must be replaced with a new one when it is broken,
bent or worn.
- All blades must be replaced (with their fixing bolts) every 50 hours as
specified in Chap. 7d.
IN CASE OF ABNORMAL VIBRATIONS, COMPLETELY REPLACE
ALL THE BLADES AND RELATED BOLTS
5) PETROL TANK: Does it contain the right type of petrol? See Chap. 7b for all specifications. Also, is the tank
cap well tightened? Is there any leak on the supply hose?
6) ENGINE FLYWHEEL COVER: Remove all debris from the area surrounding the engine and, more importantly,
from the area above the flywheel cover on the side.
7) ROTOR BRAKE CHECK: before starting to work, from the operator position and with the engine on,
engage the rotor, disengage it after few moments, check that the rotor stops completely within 7 seconds.
8) INTEGRITY CHECK on frame and protections: inspect all the frame main hoses, soldered attachments,
floor, rotor casing, shock protection and front bumper. Also, check all protection metal covers. Before each
use, perform an inspection round on the machine. Report immediately the presence of cracks and DO NOT
USE THE MACHINE. Check the integrity of all protective skirts (or chains) placed on the rotor casing front
and back.
9) PICTOGRAMS CHECK: replace the labels mentioned in Chap. 2a if they are faded, missing or illegible. Ask
for replacement copies to your usual retailer and attach them again in their position.
10) HYDROSTATIC FAN AND REAR AREA INSPECTION: check that the entire surface of the rear hydrostatic
transmission (as shown in figure) is free from dust or debris. Check that the fan is intact and free to rotate,
