areas/properties. The rotary scythe is used for cutting bushes and shrubs. Any other use is prohibited. The danger area extends for 50 meters
around the machine and must be closed with suitable warning signs. It is user's responsibility to do that while during working operations a
fenced area must be created and cleared of people and animals.
In case of requests for Technical Assistance or in the ordering of the Spare Parts, please always quote the accessory details which are printed on the CE
label on the frame. (Fig.12).
ASSEMBLY:
PERFORM ANY MAINTENANCE AND / OR ADJUSTMENTS ONLY AND ALWAYS WITH THE ENGINE OFF AND THE SPARK PLUG
CAP OFF ! - WEAR PROTECTION /TECHNICAL GLOVES DURING ALL ASSEMBLY-DISASSEMBLY OPERATIONS.
Remove the accessories from the packaging along with the upper protection, lower protection, belt and loose parts bag which includes n. 3 screws , n°4
washers and n°1 washer nut.
Fig 1) Insert the pin "1" into the hole of the hexagonal washer "2" located under the machine frame.
To facilitate the operation of insertion try to keep the pin aligned with the hole.
Fig 2) assembly the belt "A" by inserting it into the pulley groove "4" which is located inside the machine.
Fig 3) Insert the belt "A" into the belt-stretcher bridge/link "3" and complete the assembly by inserting it into the pulley groove "5" rotary scythe. If necessary,
slowly turn the pulley to go with the belt into the groove.
Fig 4) tighten the spring "6" into the hole "7" of the accessories and leverage using the ring "8" in the hole "9" going from position 1 to position 2. Repeat
the same operation on the opposite side of the machine as well.
Fig 5) Insert the lower guard "10" under the supports "11" and into the slots "12".
Fig 6) Position the upper protection"13" so that the holes match each other to allow the screwing. Tighten the two rear screws M8x20 "14" and
corresponding polythene washers "17" inserting them into the threaded inserts already positioned in the frame. Complete the assembly with the third
screw M8x20 "15",polythene washer "17", washer Ø8 "18" and the self-locking nut M8 "16" (Fig. 7) positioned in the front part of the protection.
To remove the machine from rotary scythe repeat the operations in reverse.
In order to disassemble the rotary scythe from the machine , repeat the operation in the reverse order MAKING SURE THE ENGINE TO BE
SWITCHED OFF !
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE :
Before putting the equipment in rotation, please carefully check you have read all the instruction/warnings and make sure there are no persons
in the cutting area.
Fig. 9-10) Keeping the engine on and the throttle on the maximum turns level, unfasten the safety lever "C" turning it to the upper side then with caution
lower the insertion lever " B". So that the blades are brought to slide at their full speed without making the pulley belt to slide. This way you avoid also the
engine to choke.
Press the forward lever in order to proceed with the grass cut (Fig. 10). Make attention to quickly release the forward lever in case of impact against
unforeseen obstacles and immediately switch the engine off using the throttle. Remove the obstacles and verify there are no damages or dangerous
deformations in the cutting device. In case of severe impact in case you find deformations or obvious damages , please go on changing all the knives and
the corresponding pins with screws and tightening nuts. Ask to an authorized service centre. USE ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS ONLY !
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS :
- During operations you need to use ear protectors, sturdy footwear and long trousers should be worn.
- During the engine start, the operator must not lift the machine, it must be brought in an inclined position only when the cutting blade is directed from the
side opposite to the operator's.
- Before starting the machine transport , you have to stop the engine and wait for the complete stop of the cutting blade.
- During the machine moving out from the working area , the cutting blade should be disengaged. The operator should be very careful while operating/
cutting on banks and slopes : you have to work in the slope never across it.
SERVICE (Fig. 11) :
four floating knives "F" are reversible with cutting part from both sides.
In order to guarantee the best grass cutting level it is necessary to sharp the "active" knife in case it is rounded or wasted. It is recommended to sharpen
the prominent part to "D" disk. For safety reasons after a 5-6 mm knife waste/sharpening, it is recommended to "turn" the knives in order to use the non-
wasted side.
To turn the knives it is necessary to unscrew the nut M10 "E", unthread the pin, take the knife away, carefully check the status of the pin and the knife
which should be integral. If any issue is found, re-assemble the " turned" knife on the pin and match it , being careful to the operation, to the disk blade
support, to thread the washer and screw a new self-blocking nut M10. If you are not sure to perform such operation in a workmanlike/ perfectly, please
ask to an authorized service center.
Change all the knives and corresponding pins with screws and tightening nuts if they are wasted even for the second knife for 5-6 mm and/or the thickness
is less than 3 mm. Please perform a control on the status of such components before every use. USE ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS ONLY !
Carefully wash the equipment after every use. Do not use water in the engine area.
The rotary scythe is equipped with an automatic brake device which is blocking the blades rotation to the equipment disengagement in a few seconds.
If the blades are not stopping in a few minutes it is necessary to adjust the nut M10 "19" ( fig. 8) unscrewing it for 3÷5mm using a key 17. When even the
brake adjustment using the nut won't be any more enough you should change the lining/ferodo "20" in a specialist workshop.
