probable causes are either badly sharpened
cutting means or deformed fins.
• Be very careful when mowing near bushes
or kerbs as these could distort the horizontal
position of the cutting means assembly and
damage its edge as well as the cutting means.
7.5.4 Grass catcher emptying
NOTE
The grass catcher can only be emptied
with the cutting means disengaged,
otherwise the engine stops.
NOTE
Do not let the grass catcher become too full
as this may block the discharge chute.
A continuous buzzer indicates
when the grass catcher is full:
Proceed as follows:
1. disengage the cutting means (par. 6.8,
fig. 7.B) and the signal is interrupted;
2. stop the machine;
3. take hold of the rear lever (fig. 15.A) and
tip the grass catcher bag up to empty it;
4. close the grass catcher again so that it
remains coupled to the pawl (fig. 9.B).
7.5.5 Cleaning the unload chute
Cutting very tall or wet grass, particularly
at excessively high speed, can clog up
the discharge chute. If it clogs, follow the
instructions provided in chap. 8.3.2.
7.5.6 Mowing completed
When mowing has been completed:
1. disengage the cutting means;
2. turn around with the cutting means
assembly in its highest position. (par. 6.4)

STOP

To stop the machine:
1. Release the drive pedal to stop the drive gear.

AFTER USE

1. Allow the machine to cool before
storing it in an enclosed space.

replace the damaged components and
tighten any screws and loose bolts or
contact the authorised service centre.
4. Position the machine near to a power
socket and charge the batteries *(par. 8.2.2)

Whenever the machine is left
unattended, the operator leaves the
driving seat or parks the machine:
1. Stop the machine;
2. bring the cutting means assembly
