Lawn Maintenance - EMAK 102 Manuel D'utilisation

IMPORTANT
To avoid activating the protection device.
– do not reverse the leads on the battery terminals;
– do not use the machine without its battery or damage may
be caused to the charging regulator;
– be careful to not cause short-circuits.
5.5 USING ON SLOPING GROUND
Only mowing in any case on the maximum gradients already
mentioned (max 10° - 17%), lawns on a slope have to be
mowed moving up and down and never across them, taking
great care when chang-
ing direction that the
highest wheels do not
hit obstacles (such as
stones, branches, roots,
etc.) that may cause the
machine to slide side-
ways, tip over or other-
wise cause loss of con-
trol.
DANGER!
REDUCE SPEED BEFORE ANY
CHANGE OF DIRECTION ON SLOPES, and always
engage the parking brake before leaving the machine
stopped and unattended.
WARNING!
Take care when beginning forward
movement on sloping ground to prevent the risk of tip-
ping up. Reduce the forward speed before going on a
slope, particularly downhill.

max 10∞(17%)
DANGER!
Never use reverse to reduce speed
going downhill. Control of the machine may be lost, par-
ticularly on slippery surfaces.
Go down slopes without touching the pedal (
advantage of the braking effect of the hydrostatic drive when the
transmission is not engaged.
5.6 TRANSPORTING
WARNING!
If the machine is transported on a
truck or trailer, use ramps with suitable resistance,
width and length. Load the machine with the engine
switched off, without a driver and pushed by an ade-
quate number of people. During transport, close the fuel
stopcock (if fitted), lower the cutting deck, engage the
parking brake and fasten the machine securely with
ropes or chains to the hauling device.

5.7 LAWN MAINTENANCE

1. To keep a lawn green, soft and attractive, it should be cut
regularly without damaging the grass. A lawn can be com-
posed of different types of grass. If the lawn is cut frequent-
ly, grass and roots grow more vigorously, forming a solid
grassy bed. If the lawn is cut is less frequently, higher grass
and weeds start growing (plus daisies and clovers, etc.).
