ambient temperatures => Allow the machine to cool down completely before resuming work.
■) The ENGINE turns accidentally off during work
-) the operator is not correctly seated: human presence switch not pressed => the operator must
change the way is seated/decrease the speed if the issue is caused by holes on the ground.
-) Too much effort: forward speed is too high and/or cutting height not proportional to the
terrain/throttle not at its maximum RPMs => Decrease the forward speed/raise the cutting
height/bring the throttle to the maximum.
-) Petrol has run out => Fill the tank.
-) Petrol picking issues due to the use on slopes and tank almost empty => Fill up.
