(Translation of the original instructions)
The quick release supports allow you to easily
move the cutting device between two positions,
namely:
• Normal position, with the belt fully taut.
• Position 4 cm back from normal, with the belt
slack, so that the cutting device comes closest
to the base machine.
Since the tensioner is freed from the belt, the
quick release supports make it easy to replace
the belt and the cutting device assembly, also
making it easier to switch to the washing and
working positions.
Belt tension release (17; 18)
See also the instructions supplied with
the attachment and with the quick re-
lease support.
1. Remove the split pins or locking pins (17:C)
from both sides.
2. Open the quick release supports by pressing
on the rear sections with your heel (17:A).
Once the quick release supports are
open, the attachment arms are free,
therefore no longer firmly fixed to the
hook.
For any adjustment or maintenance
work, replace the arms on the support
and close it again
1. Perform the necessary task, such as:
• Unhook the belt.
• Replace the attachment by releasing the arms
(19).
Belt tensioning (17; 18)
Tension one side first, then the other following the
instructions below.
Do not turn the lever with your hands.
There is a risk of crushing injuries.
1. Place a foot on the lever (18:A) and carefully
rotate it half a turn forward.
2. Install the split pin or locking pin (17:C).
3. Repeat the operation on the other side.

7 STARTING AND DRIVING

7.1

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE

Always check that the oil level in the
engine is correct. This is especially im-
ENGLISH
portant when working on slopes (see
7.4).
Be very careful when mowing on
slopes: do not make sudden starts or
brake, do not use the machine cross-
wise, always move from top to bottom
or from bottom to top.
Engage the parking brake when park-
ing the machine.
The machine must not be used on
slopes of over 10°, regardless of the
mowing direction.
Reduce speed on slopes and sharp
turns to avoid overturning or losing
control of the machine.
When driving at full speed, do not fully
turn the steering wheel. The machine
could tip over.
Keep hands and feet away from the
articulated steering joint and seat sup-
port. There is a risk of crushing inju-
ries.

COMBINED ATTACHMENT USE

For the combined use of attachments,
see the "TABLE FOR THE CORRECT
COMBINATION OF ATTACHMENTS" in
the "0 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION TA-
BLE" section
7.3

REFUELLING (20)

Always use unleaded petrol. Do not
mix petrol with oil.
For tank capacity, see ""0 TECHNICAL SPECIFI-
CATION TABLE"
To refuel:
1. Unscrew the tank closure cap and remove it
(fig. 20.A).
Refuel being careful not to completely fill the
2.
tank. Leave some space (corresponding at
least to the entire filler neck + 1 - 2 cm at the
top of the tank) so that, when the petrol heats
up, it can expand without overflowing.
3. Close the fuel cap securely after refuelling
and clean away any spills.
