1 TECHNICAL INFORMATION

1.1 APPLICATION

Mowers with the APACHE/ TUAREG business brand are two-axle terrain mowing riding mowers designed for mowing both maintained and unkempt grass areas on level ground and slopes with an incline of up to 22° (40%) free of foreign objects (stones, fallen branches, bones, hard items etc.). It can be used to mow multi-year vegetation, intertwined with raspberries, blackberries and various other weeds.

Any use of this riding mower, which is not described in this user's manual and which goes beyond the use here described is considered to be in contradiction to its intended purpose or use. The manufacturer of the mower is not responsible for damages arising from such use; the risk is borne by its user. The user is also responsible for adhering to the conditions prescribed by the manufacturer for the operation, maintenance and repairs of this mower, which may only be used, maintained and repaired by persons that know these conditions and have been informed about possible dangers.

Only accessories, which have been approved by the manufacturer may be connected to the mower. The use of other accessories will result in the warranty being immediately void.

1.2 MAIN PARTS OF THE RIDING MOWER

The riding mower consists of the following basic sections:

1.2

(1) Hood with storage space

The hood is a combination of plastic and metal covers, which contain storage space for the battery and the fuel tank.

(2) Frame with a bumper

The frame with bumpers serves as a bearing element for most of the main parts of the mower.

(3) Front axle with wheels including steering\*

The front axle enables the wheels to turn. The wheels are turned by the steering wheel by means of a rack mechanism.

The APACHE/TUAREG mower is equipped with front-wheel drive. All-wheel drive is engaged automatically, with power distributed to the individual axles depending on the current traction conditions and the travel mode (forward or reverse).

(4) Mowing deck

The mowing deck mows the grass. It is located under the mower. It consists of a cover, main plate, blade holders and two massive mowing blades. The deck is powered by the mower's engine through an electromagnetic clutch and a V-belt.

(5) Engine, gear box including rear-wheel drive via a bypass

The four-stroke petrol engine is mounted to the frame in the rear part of the mower. The gear box with hydrostatic power transmission serves to change gears while driving. The bypass lever is located on the mower's rear plate. It serves to engage and disengage the gear box for the rear wheels.

(6) Tilting frame of the mower

The tilting frame is intended as an aid for maintenance and servicing works and as protection of the user against tree and bush branches.

(7) Driver's location

The comfortable seat enables easy access to all control elements on the mower. The seat used ensures safe and comfortable operation.

* ATTENTION: Due to construction design, the APACHE/ TUAREG riding mower does not enable the disconnection of the front axle drive – the hydraulic system is not equipped with a by-pass valve, which significantly limits the option of moving the mower when the engine is not running. During such movement the front axle is significantly overloaded and may be damaged. The bypass lever on this mower is primarily used to bleed the hydrostatic system. The mower must not be used (gear shifted into drive) if the bypass lever is in the disengaged position - there is a danger of damage to the transmissions!!

2. WORK SAFETY AND HEALTH

Riding mowers models 92 EVO and 92 EVO 4x4 under the brand name CROSSJET are manufactured according to valid European safety norms. The mower's manufacturer confirms this fact in the Statement of compliance, which is included at the end of this user's manual (10).

If this mower is used properly and according to the user's manual, it is very safe.

In the event that work safety is not adhered to and all warnings in this manual are not respected, this riding mower may cut off hands, legs or deflect objects and so may cause serious injury or death to persons, damage or destructions of the mower or one of its parts or accessories.

2.1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The person primarily responsible for their own safety and the safety of others during the operation of the riding mower is its user. The manufacturer takes no responsibility for the injury of persons or damage to the mower and ecological damage resulting from the mower not being used and operated in accordance with all safety instructions included in this user's manual.

2.1.1 GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

! This mower may only be driven by a person over 18 years of age that has read this user's manual.
! The user of the mower is responsible for the safety of persons in the vicinity of the work area of the mower.
! It is not permitted to perform any technical modifications to the mower and its accessories without the manufacturer's written consent. Unauthorised modifications may lead to hazardous work safety conditions and void the warranty.
! Adhere to all requirements relating to fire safety ( 2.4).
! Do not remove safety stickers or labels from the mower.
! Do not stay in the vicinity of the mower or under it, if it is lifted and is not sufficiently secured against falling or tipping over in the lifted position.
! Always turn off the mowing deck and engine and take the key out of the ignition, when:

▶ you are cleaning the mower
▶ you are removing accumulated grass from the mowing deck
▶ you have driven over a foreign object and it is necessary to check whether the mower has been damaged or it is necessary to remedy the damage
▶ the mower is vibrating with unusual force and it is necessary to identify the cause of the vibrations
▶ you are repairing the engine or other moving parts (also disconnect cables from the spark plugs)

2.1.2 CLOTHING AND PROTECTIVE AIDS OF THE DRIVER

! When operating the mower, always use appropriate work attire. Never wear loose clothing and short pants.
! When operating the mower, always wear firm, closed footwear, ideally with non-slip soles. Never operate the mower when wearing sandals or barefoot.
! Noise and vibration values at the location of the operator provided in this manual (1.4) are closely related to the requirements of directives EU 2003/10/ES (exposure to noise) and 2002/44/ES (exposure to vibrations), that regulate the conditions for use of personal protective aids against noise and vibrations and also the reduction of exposure time of the operator by means of appropriate work breaks. The mower manufacturer recommends always using hearing protection when operating the mower. Not adhering to these instructions may result in permanent health damage!

2.1.3 BEFORE USING THE MOWER

! Do not use the riding mower if it is damaged or if any of its protective elements are missing. All covers and other protective elements must always be in their place. Therefore, do not remove or put out of operation any of the mower's protective elements. Regularly check that these elements are working correctly.

! Do not work with the mower after consuming alcohol, drugs or medication affecting your perception.
! Do not work with the mower if you suffer from dizziness, fainting or if you are weakened or distracted in any other way.
! Before putting the mower into operation, thoroughly learn about all the control elements and ensure that you can control them in such a way that if necessary you can immediately stop or turn off the engine.
! Do not adjust the engine regulator or the engine speed limiter.
! Before you start working with the mower, remove from the surface of the area you will be mowing, all stones, pieces of wood, wire, bones, fallen branches and other items, which could be deflected during the mowing process.
! Remedy all defects before further use. Before starting work, thoroughly check that the belts are tensioned, the blades are sharp and that the area inside the mowing deck is clear.

! The mower must not be used for work on slopes that have an incline greater than 22^ (40%).
! Transport of other passengers, animals or loads directly on the mower is forbidden. Transport of loads is only permitted on trailers approved by the mower's manufacturer.
! Even when leaving the mower for a short time, always remove the key from the ignition.
! If you are driving the mower away from the work area where you are mowing, always disengage the mowing deck and lift it to the transport position.
! Do not mow near piles of material, holes or banks. The riding mower may suddenly roll over if the wheel goes over the edge of a hole, trench or an edge that may collapse.
! When working, avoid concrete supports, tree stumps, garden bed and footpath kerbs, which must not come into contact with the blades and so cause damage to the mowing deck and the mower's mechanism.
! In the event of an impact into a rigid object, stop and turn off the mowing deck and engine and inspect the entire mower, particularly the steering mechanism. If necessary perform repairs before starting up the engine again.
! Whenever possible avoid using the mower in wet grass. Reduced traction may lead to skidding.
! Avoid obstacles (e.g. sudden change in the incline of a slope, ditches, etc.) on which the mower could roll over.
! If mowing is deactivated, the mowing deck must always be in the transport position.
! Do not attempt to maintain the stability of the mower by stepping on the ground.
! Only use the mower in daylight hours or with good artificial lighting.
! Driving the mower on public roads is not permitted.
! When operating the mower do not wear loose clothing and short pants, use solid fully-closed footwear. Never operate the mower when wearing sandals or barefoot.
! Do not leave the engine running in closed areas. The exhaust fumes contain substances that are odourless but are fatally poisonous.
! Do not put your hands or legs underneath the mowing deck cover. Never put any part of your body near the rotating or moving parts of the mower.
! Do not start the engine without an exhaust pipe.
! Usually the noise emitted during mowing does not exceed the acoustic pressure and acoustic power values specified in this user's manual (1.4). In certain cases, however, it may under certain conditions and due to the condition of the terrain exceed the specified noise levels for a short time.
! The mower manufacturer recommends the use of hearing protection when operating the mower because stressing the hearing organ with an excessive noise level or long term effects of noise may lead to permanent hearing damage.
! Always pay full attention to driving and other activities performed with the mower. The most common causes of loss of control over the mower are for example:

▶ Loss of wheel traction.
▶ Excessive; not adjusting speed to current conditions and terrain properties.
▶ Sudden breaking where the wheels lock up.
▶ Using the mower for purposes for which is was not designed.

2.1.5 AFTER FINISHING WORK WITH THE MOWER

! Always maintain the mower and its accessories clean and in good technical condition.
! The rotating blades are sharp and may cause injuries. Whenever handing the blades always use protective gloves or wrap the blades.
! Regularly check the nuts and bolts securing the blades so that they are tightened with the appropriate amount of torque (6.3.6).
! Pay special attention to lock nuts. After the nut is loosened a second time its locking capability is reduced and therefore it needs to be replaced with a new one.
! Regularly inspect all components and if necessary replace those that need to be replaced based on the manufacturer's recommendations.

2.2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR WORK ON SLOPES

Slopes are the main cause of accidents, loss of control over the mower or subsequent roll-overs, which may lead to serious injuries or death. Mowing on slopes always requires an increased level of attention. If you are not sure, or it exceeds your ability, do not mow on slopes.

! Riding mowers can be used on slopes with a maximum incline of 22^ (40%) and only in the direction of the fall line, i.e. upwards or downwards. More information ■5.5.4.
! When changing direction increased care is needed. Do not turn on a slope unless it is absolutely necessary.
! Watch out for holes, roots, uneven terrain. Uneven terrain may cause the mower to turn over. High grass may conceal hidden obstacles. Therefore, remove all foreign objects from the area where you wish to mow in advance.
! Select such a speed so that you do not need to stop when on a hill.
! Be very careful when attaching various hitch attachments. It may lead to a reduced stability of the mower.
! Perform all movements on a slope slowly and smoothly. Do not make sudden changes to speed or direction.
! Avoid starting up or stopping on a slope. In the event that the wheels lose traction, turn off the power to the blades and drive slowly down the hill.
! Start driving very carefully and slowly when on a slope so that the mower does not "skip". Always reduce the mower's driving speed before a slope, and especially when driving down a hill lower the driving speed to minimum to take advantage of the braking effect of the gearbox. This braking effect is significantly higher on the AC 92-23 4x4 mower.

2.3 CHILD SAFETY

If the riding mower operator is not prepared for the presence of children then a tragic accident may happen. The movement of a riding mower attracts the attention of children. Never assume that children will remain in the location where you last saw them.

! Do not allow children without supervision in areas where you are mowing grass.
! Always be prepared - if children approach you then turn off the mower.
! Before and while reversing look behind you and at the ground.
! Never transport children, they may fall and seriously injure themselves, or they may dangerously interfere with the riding mower controls. Never allow children to operate the mower.
! Pay increased attention in places with limited visibility (near trees, bushes, walls, etc.).

2.4 FIRE SAFETY

When reversing the riding mower it is necessary to adhere to fundamentals and regulations for work safety and fire protection relating to work with this type of mower.

! Regularly remove flammable substances (dry grass, leaves, etc.) from the area around the exhaust, engine, battery and anywhere, where they could come into contact with petrol or oil and subsequently catch on fire and so result in a fire on the mower.

! Allow the riding mower engine to cool down before parking it in an enclosed location.
! Pay increased attention when working with petrol, oil and other flammable substances. These are very flammable substances, the fumes of which are explosive. Do not smoke during this work. Never unscrew the petrol tank cap and refill with petrol while the engine is running, if the engine is hot or if the mower is in a closed location.
! Check the petrol lines before using and do not fill the petrol all the way up to the bottleneck of the tank. The heat generated by the engine, sun and the expansion of the fuel may lead to the fuel overflowing and a subsequent fire.
! For storing flammable substances use containers designed for this purpose. Never store a canister with petrol or the mower inside a building near any source of heat.
! Pay increased attention when working with the battery. The gas inside the battery is highly explosive, therefore do not smoke in the vicinity of the battery and do not use an open flame so as to avoid serious injuries.

! The riding mower is designed so that when properly operated in perfect technical condition, it poses no danger to the driver and his/her surroundings. Nevertheless, there may arise situations during operation, maintenance and adjustment that pose a danger to workers if they are not aware of them and do not adhere to the safety instruction here provided. These hazards represent so-called residual hazards – they are hazards that remain even after all preventive and protective measures have been considered and implemented. Residual hazards are present during use, maintenance and adjustment of the mower. Therefore, every person that comes into work contact with the mower must know these hazards and must adhere to all recommendations for their mitigation.

MOWING BLADES

! Rotating mowing blades are very sharp and coming into contact with them creates a serious risk of injury to limbs. Therefore, do not put your hands or legs underneath the mowing deck cover. Never put any part of your body near the rotating or moving blades. Do not attempt to use your hands or other temporary items to stop or slow down moving mowing blades!

MOVING AND HOT PARTS

When the engine is running, there are parts that are rotating and may cause serious injury to various parts of the body. When performing maintenance or adjustment of mower parts located underneath the hood or underneath the raised mower, it is thus necessary to pay increased attention and never to bring any part of the body in the vicinity of moving parts. Only a person with perfect knowledge of the principles of motion of these parts may perform their maintenance and adjustment. During operation, parts located under the hood heated up and when touched with an unprotected part of the body may result in serious burns. Therefore, before opening the hood for the purpose of performing maintenance or servicing tasks, always allow the mower to cool down and use safety gloves for protection.

DRIVER'S LOCATION

! In the driver's location, there is a risk of falling from the platform or slipping as a result of inattentiveness. Therefore, always be careful when getting on or getting off the mower. Another hazard for the driver is fatigue, stress or erroneous behaviour caused by work overload, insufficient illumination of the mowed area or noise during operation. It is, therefore, necessary to always use hearing protection while using the mower, do not overload yourself and take breaks.

FUEL TANK

! The fuel in the fuel tank is a highly flammable substance the fumes of which are explosive. When working with fuel or in the vicinity of the fuel tank (even when closed), never smoke, never come close with an open flame or with items that generate high temperatures.

This chapter primarily serves the needs of the vendor's mechanics that prepare the mower for the user within the scope of pre-sale service. In the event that you have received your mower already assembled and ready for operation, please skip directly to chapter 4.

In the event that you have unpacked the mower yourself, then it is necessary to prepare it for operation according to the instructions contained in this chapter. In the event that you are unsure about the procedure or you have insufficient equipment, tools or experience, please do not hesitate to contact the vendor of the mower for assistance.

We recommend performing all assembly works in a team of at least two people.

Inspect immediately after delivery that the packed mower has not been damaged. In the event of damage inform the carrier. If the complaint is not lodged in time, no potential demands can be claimed.

Check that the mower model is the same as you ordered. In the event of an irregularity do not unpack the mower and immediately report this discrepancy to the supplier.

1. Crate packaging
2. Seat
3. Folding frame
4. Steering wheel
5. Documentation (located underneath the hood)

Using a suitable tool (e.g. crowbar or hammer, etc.) remove the crate (1) and the packaging on the mower.

Visually inspect the mower and assemblies for damage that may have occurred during transport. Unpack all separately packed assemblies and inspect them.

The basic package includes:

▶ Riding mower
▶ Seat (2)
▶ Folding frame in the folded state (3)
▶ Steering wheel (4)
▶ Documentation (5) (packed parts list, user's manual for the riding mower, user's manual for the engine, user's manual for the battery, service log book)

3.2 DISPOSAL OF THE PACKAGING

After unpacking the accessories, ensure that the packaging material is properly disposed of or recycled. The disposal must conform to relevant waste disposal laws valid in the user's country.

Disposal may be performed by a specialised company.

3.3 ASSEMBLY OF THE SEPARATELY PACKED ASSEMBLIES

Due to the technical nature of this task, the mower is prepared for operation by the vendor of your riding mower (according to the following instructions).

Before starting installation, remove all covering, protective and fastening materials.

3.3a

a) Install the seat springs:

▶ Tilt out the seat.
▶ Unscrew the bolts holding down the seating spring under the bracket. Then install the springs so that they are above the bracket.
▶ Set the appropriate distance of the seat from the steering wheel by pressing the seat positioning lever which is a part of the seat.

Under no circumstances should you sit on the seat before installing the seat springs into a working state! A collision with the hood could occur and damage it.

3.3b

b) Install the steering wheel:

▶ Using a hammer and a suitable rod, knock out the pin (2), which is inserted in the shaft hole (1).
The steering wheel is set it two height positions, which are set by two holes in the steering wheel shaft. Select the optimal steering wheel position, attach it on to the rod (1) and turn it so that the holes in the steering wheel and the rod align.
▶ Reinsert the pin into the hole and knock it in using a hammer.

3.3c

c) Set the folding frame to the correct position:

▶ Using the quick coupler levers set the folding frame to the vertical position.

3.3d

d) Connect the battery:

▶ Open the storage area in the hood and loosen the bolts on the battery pole terminals.
▶ Black wire Place on the (+) pole of the battery and secure in place with the bolt.
▶ Brown wire Place on the (−) pole of the battery and secure in place with the bolt.

Connecting the wires in opposite to that described above will damage the mower.

When disconnecting the battery, always disconnect the negative (−) terminal of the battery first.

When putting the battery into operation and when performing maintenance on it, proceed according to the instructions in the user's manual for the battery. Also follow all safety instructions contained therein.

Now prepare the mower for the first start up according to the following chapter.

3.4 CHECKS PRIOR TO STARTING UP

Due to the technical nature of this task the mower is put into operation by the seller of your riding mower (according to the manufacturer's instructions).

3.4.1 CHECKING THE MOTOR OIL

The mower must be in a horizontal position before the oil level can be checked. The cap of the bottleneck is located on the engine covers at the rear side of the mower. Screw out the oil dipstick, wipe it dry, reinsert it and screw in. Then again screw it out and take the oil level reading.

① ②

Oil level dipstick:

(1) - (ADD) low oil level
(2) - (FULL) maximum oil level

The oil level must be between the two marks on the dipstick. If it is not, fill up with motor oil so that it reaches the "FULL" mark. The motor oil type is indicated in the user's manual of the engine.

The oil level must be checked before every work session.

3.4.2 CHECKING THE BATTERY

Check the battery charge level according to the user's manual of the battery.

3.4.3 FILLING THE FUEL TANK WITH FUEL

For safety reasons the riding mower is transported without fuel and before the first start up it is necessary to fill it up. The fuel tank is located at the front side of the mower and has a capacity of 19 l of fuel.

Use only petrol with the octane number specified in the user's manual of the engine, i.e. lead-free petrol NATURAL 95. Defects caused by the use of incorrect fuel are not covered by the warranty!

Only fill the fuel tank with the engine turned off and when the engine is cold. Fill up the fuel tank in a well ventilated location.

When handling fuel, do not eat, smoke or use an open flame.

For filling, use a funnel designed for refilling fuel.

Ensure that fuel is not spilled when refilling. Spilled fuel can very easily catch on fire. If fuel does spill, thoroughly wipe dry.

Store fuels out of the reach of children.

Procedure for filling up:

▶ Open the fuel tank lid. Open it slowly because there may be overpressure in the fuel tank caused by petrol vapours.
▶ Insert a funnel into the fuel tank bottleneck and start to pour the fuel from the canister.
▶ After filling up the fuel tank always wipe dry the area around the fuel tank bottleneck as well as the fuel tank bottleneck itself. It is good to check the condition of the fuel lines.
It is recommended to regularly also clean out the actual fuel tank because impurities found in the fuel may cause an engine malfunction.

3.4.4 CHECKING THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE TYRES

Before putting the mower into operation, check the air pressure in the tyres.

Tyre pressure differs according to the type used. The correct tyre pressure is always provided on the tyres.

Do not exceed the maximum pressure marked on the tyres that are being used.

3.4.5 CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL IN THE HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT (APPLIES FOR MODEL 92 EVO 4X4)

The mower is supplied with a bled hydraulic circuit and with an equalisation tank with the prescribed amount of oil. The oil level in the tank may decline during transport.

The equalisation tank is located in the rear part of the mower under the engine cover.

▶ Check that the oil level is between the two marks on the measure of the closing lid, if necessary fill up with the necessary amount of the prescribed oil.
▶ Wipe clean the area around the tank bottleneck and the tank bottleneck itself. Also regularly clean the entire tank, because any dirt in the oil reduces the lifespan of the oil filter and may possibly cause a malfunction.

The system is fully bled during the first couple of hours of driving the mower – we recommend that you "run the mower in" under a mild load for 1 to 2 hours.

3.4.6 PERFORMING A LEAK TEST ON THE HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT

Visually check the hydraulic circuit for oil leaks, namely the locations where fittings are connected to the transmissions. If you discover any leaks, inform your service centre.

3.5 DRIVING THE MOWER FROM THE PALLET

Prepare two suitable ramps and place them next to the pallet so that the mower's wheels can ride on to them. If you drive off the pallet without ramps, there is a danger of damaging the underside of the mower, particularly the mowing deck!
▶ Lift the mowing deck into the transport position by pulling on the mowing deck elevation lever (4.2.1 (10)).
▶ Move the throttle lever from position 🔍 approximately half way (■.2.1(5)).
▶ Pull out the choke lever (4.2.1 (6)).
▶ Set the by-pass lever to position "1" (4.2.1 (11)).
▶ Start up the mower by turning the key to position ⏻(■.2.1(1)) and slowly drive the mower down off the pallet.

(2) DEACTIVATION OF THE MOWING DECK DISENGAGEMENT FOR REVERSING

The R switch serves to disengage the automatic mowing deck disengagement function when reversing (5.5.1).

The switch needs to be pressed when the mowing deck has already been automatically disengaged but the blades have not yet stopped rotating (approx. 4 seconds) or when the mowing deck is started immediately before the reverse travel pedal is stepped on. Then with every subsequent change in the travel direction from reverse to forward, the disengagement of the mowing deck is again reactivated.

(3) NEUTRAL GEAR ENGAGED INDICATOR

The indicator light serves to show that the travel lever is in neutral.

Not lit - the travel lever is in position F (forward) or R (reverse)

Lit green - the travel lever is in position N (neutral)

(4) BATTERY CHARGING INDICATOR LIGHT

The indicator light serves to signal the battery power level. When the key is engaged and the engine is not running, it may signal the following:

SLOWLY FLASHING RED: It is advisable to charge the battery.

QUICKLY FLASHING RED: The battery is almost flat and there may be problems with starting the mower

ATTENTION: If the indicator light starts flashing after the engine is started, the battery recharging process is no working correctly. If this happens, it is necessary to contact an authorised service centre and have the engine inspected.

(5) MOTOR HOURS COUNTER

Displays the number of motor hours.

SenDEC 8 0.0 HOURS

Tampering with the counter will void the warranty – the motor hours connection is equipped with a tamper seal.

Immediately contact your service centre if the motor hours counter malfunctions.

Stepping on the brake pedal will slow down the riding mower.

Never use the brake at the same time as the travel direction function – there is a danger of damaging the transmission!

(10) DIFFERENTIAL LOCK PEDAL

The pedal is used only if necessary and only when driving directly forward. It has two positions:

Diagram showing a mechanical component with bidirectional arrows indicating movement or force, possibly illustrating a motion or assembly.

When the pedal is pushed down the lock is engaged.

When the pedal is released the lock is automatically disengaged.

Use the lock only when driving directly forward and only if necessary (loss of traction). Never use the differential lock when changing travel direction. Otherwise there is a risk of serious damage to the transmission!

(11) MOWING DECK ELEVATION ADJUSTMENT LEVER

The lever serves to set the elevation height of the mowing deck from the ground.

Technical diagram showing mechanical assembly with three labeled components and directional arrows indicating assembly steps.

The lever has 4 work positions (50 - 60 - 75 - 100 mm), where the corresponding mowing height is 5 to 10 cm. The higher the number of the lever position, the higher vegetation height remains after mowing.

There is also 1 transport position, which is 120 mm above the ground. When the lever is set to the transport position it is not possible to engage the mowing deck as a safety switch is built into this position.

When travelling without mowing the lever must be set to the transport position!

The mulching function can be improved by using a special accessory, a so-called "mulching set", which is supplied separately as a special accessory for mowing maintained lawns.

(12) THROTTLE LEVER

Serves to regulate the engine speed. It has the following positions:

		MAX Maximum engine speed
		MIN Minimum engine speed (idle)

(13) CRUISE CONTROL DI SENGAGE LEVER

This lever disengages the mechanical cruise control function and so it is possible to travel with the mower very accurately at a slow speed.

Do not disengage the cruise control when travelling at a high speed!

	0 Cruise control is disengaged
	1 Cruise control is engaged

(14) TRAVEL DIRECTION LEVER

It controls the power supplied to the rear wheels and regulates the speed of the mower in both directions. In the basic setting it is equipped with a mechanical cruise control function, which is automatically deactivated by pressing the brake pedal.

	F	Forward drive	Moving the lever closer to the letter F corresponds to a higher speed and vice versa
	N	Neutral The mower is still
	R	Reverse drive	Moving the lever closer to the letter R corresponds to a higher speed and vice versa

Changing the travel direction from forward to reverse or from reverse to forward is only possible after stopping the mower. When the brake pedal is stepped on, the travel lever automatically shifts to position "N".

(15) CHOKE

Enables the starting of a cold engine.

CHOKE $starting a cold engine

(16) BY-PASS LEVER - FREE MOVEMENT OF THE REAR WHEELS

The bypass lever serves to disengage the transmission for the rear wheel drive and is used to push or pull the mower without using the engine. The lever is located on the rear side of the mower and has the following two positions:

	Position Rear wheel drive Use
	(0) DISENGAGED	Lever is extended - for pushing the mower
	(1) ENGAGED	Lever is inserted - for driving the mower

ATTENTION! On the 92 EVO 4x4 mower the lever is used primarily for bleeding the hydrostatic system. Due to the high demands on equipment, have this procedure performed by a specialised service centre.

The mower must not be used (gear shifted into drive) if the by-pass lever is in the disengaged position - there is a danger of damage to the transmissions!

(17) TILTING FRAME CONTROL LEVERS

The tilting frame is intended as an aid for maintenance and servicing works and as protection of the user against tree and bush branches. The control levers serve to set the frame to one of the following three positions:

1. Work
2. Service
3. Auxiliary for handling the mower

5. OPERATION AND HANDLING OF THE MOWER

i

Information which it is good to know before the riding mower is first turned on:

The riding mower is equipped with safety contacts, which are connected by a switch located under the seat.
The engine will automatically shut off when the driver leaves the seat and the mower is not secured using the parking brake.
The engine can only be started when the mowing deck is turned off and the mowing deck elevation adjustment lever is in the transport position.

5.1 CHECKS PRIOR TO STARTING UP THE MOWER

Before starting up the riding mower check the following:

▶ Oil level in the engine (■ 3.4.1)
▶ Battery charge level (■ 3.4.2)
▶ Fuel level (3.4.3)
▶ Air pressure in the tyres (■ 3.4.4)
▶ That the bypass lever is in position "1"

5.2 STARTING UP THE ENGINE

The mower is equipped with a function that prevents the engine from starting if the following safety conditions are not met:

The drive of the mowing deck is disengaged (the mowing deck engagement indicator is not lit)
▶ The travel lever is in position N (neutral)
▶ The driver is sitting on the seat of the mower

After meeting the described conditions, start the engine as follows:

a) Set the mowing deck elevation adjustment lever to the transport position.
b) Move the mowing deck activation switch to position "DEACTIVATED".
c) Move the travel direction lever to position "N".
d) Move the throttle lever to maximum engine speed.
e) Pull out the choke.
f) Start up the engine by moving the ignition key to position "Start engine". After starting the engine, release the key. The key will automatically return to the position "Ignition on".

As soon as the engine starts up, release the ignition key. The duration of starting up must not exceed 10 seconds, otherwise there is danger of damage to the switch!

Never use fixed external starters to start the mower. This could damage the electrical wiring. It is possible to connect a higher capacity 12V battery.

g) Push in the choke.
h) Slowly move the throttle lever to the idle position (reduce the engine speed).

Allow the engine to run several minutes before turning on the mowing deck.

Never leave a started engine running in a closed or poorly ventilated area. Exhaust fumes contain gases that are harmful to your health.

Keep your hands, legs and clothing away from moving parts and the exhaust.

5.3 TURNING OFF THE ENGINE

a) Move the throttle lever to position "MIN".
b) If the mowing deck is activated, deactivate it by pushing down the switch.
c) Turn off the engine by moving the key to position "STOP" and take the key out of the ignition.

If the engine is overheated, allow it to run for a while at minimum speed.

Never stop the engine by merely getting off the seat, while leaving the key in the ignition in the position "ON" as this may result in an electrical defect.

Always turn the key to the "OFF" position and remove it from the ignition. This will prevent an undesirable start up of the mower by an unauthorised person or children.

Before turning off the ignition, lower the engine speed to slow for the event of self-ignition. Not following this instruction may result in damage to the engine and exhaust.

Never disconnect the battery cables while the engine is running! This could damage the engine regulator.

5.4 ENGAGING AND DISENGAGING THE MOWING DECK

5.4.1 ENGAGING THE MOWING DECK

▶ Move the throttle lever to position "MAX".
▶ Using the mowing deck elevation adjustment lever set the position of the mowing deck and thereby the mowing height.
▶ Set the mowing deck engagement switch to position "ENGAGED".

Conditions for engaging the mowing deck:

• the driver is sitting in the seat of the mower
• the mowing deck elevation adjustment lever is not in the transport position

5.4.2 DISENGAGING THE MOWING DECK

▶ Disengage the mowing deck by pushing down the engagement switch.

If the driver leaves the seat, the engine will automatically shut down and thereby the rotation of the mowing blades also.

However, never turn off the mowing deck by simply leaving the seat. If you do not move the key in the ignition from the position "ON" to position "STOP", then a part of the electrical installation will still be live and this may result in it being damaged. Also the motor hours counter remains activated.

5.4.3 SETTING THE ELEVATION OF THE MOWING DECK FOR MOWING

▶ If you wish to set the mowing deck higher off the ground, move the mowing deck elevation adjustment lever upwards to position 50 or 100. This position is used to mow high and wet vegetation to a height of 5 or 10 cm.
▶ If you wish to set the mowing deck closer to the ground, move the mowing deck elevation adjustment lever downwards to position 50 or 60. This position is used to mow level and maintained areas to a height of 5 or 6 cm.

5.5 DRIVING THE MOWER

GENERAL WARNINGS BEFORE DRIVING:

▶ Make sure that the parking brake is disengaged. The parking brake must not remain in position "2" (4.2.1 (3)). Stepping down on the operating brake automatically disengages the parking brake.
The bypass lever must be set to position "1", i.e. bypass of the drive must be engaged.
▶ When travelling to the mowing location, the mowing deck must be disengaged and raised in the transport position.
▶ When travelling over obstacles higher than 8 cm (kerbs, etc.) it is necessary to use ramps to avoid damaging the mowing deck and the gear box.
▶ Avoid hard impacts of the front wheels against rigid obstacles, this may result in damage to the front axle, particularly when the mower is travelling at a high speed.

5.5.1 TRAVELLING FORWARD / REVERSING

▶ While accelerating slowly move the travel lever to the required direction of travel, i.e. to travel forward to position "F", and to reverse to position "R".
▶ If you wish to reduce your travelling speed, move the gear lever away from the direction of travel. To increase the travelling speed move the travel lever the direction of travel.

Changing the direction of travel forward-reverse is possible only after moving the gear lever to position "N" and leaving the lever in this position for a short while. If the mower is not still, there is a danger of damaging the transmission.

Never use the travel direction lever and the brake at the same time – this may damage the transmission.

The system is equipped with an automatic mowing deck disengagement system for reversing when travelling at a speed higher than 0.3 m/s (approx. 1 km/hour).

In the event of intentional and controlled reversing with the mowing deck engaged, it is possible to disengage this safety function by pressing the R button located next to the steering wheel (4.2 (2)). Then with every subsequent change in the travel direction from reverse to forward, the disengagement of the mowing deck is reactivated.

When using the disengagement of this function with the R button, pay exceptional attention to the area behind the mower when reversing.

5.5.2 STOPPING TRAVEL

The movement of the mower forward / reverse is stopped by stepping down on the brake pedal and the gear stick will automatically return to the position "N". The braking distance is shorter than 1.5m.

In the event that cruise control is engaged and the brake pedal is stepped on, it automatically moves to the neutral position. The braking distance is shorter than 2 m.

The mower can only be stopped by gradually moving the travel direction lever to position "N" and then gradually stepping on the brake pedal.

Never use the travel direction lever and the brake at the same time – this may damage the transmission.

5.5.3 TRAVELLING SPEED AND MOWING GRASS

It generally applies that the wetter, higher and more dense the grass is, the lower the travelling speed that should be used. When the mower is travelling too fast or higher demands are place on it, the blade rotation speed declines as does the mowing quality. Under such conditions always set the engine to maximum power.
▶ If the grass is very high, it is necessary to mow it several times. First mow at maximum elevation and with narrower mowing coverage width if necessary. The second run can then proceed at the required mowing height.
▶ We recommend mowing in the parallel or cross direction. Covering the previous coverage of the mower increases the effectiveness of the blades and will improve the appearance of the mowed area.
- When travelling over uneven terrain the travelling speed may fluctuate.

5.5.4 TRAVELLING ON A SLOPE

Riding mowers models 92 EVO and 92 EVO 4x4 can work on slopes with an incline of up to 22° (40%).

When working on a slope it is necessary to adhere to the following fundamentals:

▶ Pay increased attention when travelling on a slope.
▶ Always use a lower travelling speed and regulate the travelling speed by moving the driving lever.
▶ Only travel perpendicular to the contour, i.e. up and down. Travelling in the direction of the contour is possible with extra attention only when turning the mower. If at all possible, avoid travelling along the contour.
- When turning ensure that a wheel does not drive over an elevated obstacle (rock, tree root, etc.)
▶ Travel slower when travelling down a slope or over obstacles. Pay special attention when turning and turning around on slopes.
▶ If you stop on a slope, always use the parking brake.

Correct

Max 22° (40%)

Wrong

When overloading the mower by travelling on slopes over 22^ (40%) there is a risk of serious damage to the transmission. The manufacturer is not responsible for damage caused in this way.

6. MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT

Properly performed regular maintenance and inspection of the riding mower helps to increase its problem-free operating lifetime. Worn or damaged parts must be replaced in time. When replacing parts, use only original spare parts, using non-original parts may damage the mower, endanger the health of the driver or other persons and during the warranty period it voids the warranty. To order spare parts, always contact the mower's manufacturer or an authorised service centre.

On the AC 92-23 4x4 mower, change the oil after the first 50 operating hours, and then after every 200 operating hours.

6.2 DAILY CHECKS AND MAINTENANCE

Before starting any maintenance or repair works, thoroughly reacquaint yourself with all instructions, restrictions and recommendations in this user's manual.

Always remove the key from the ignition and disconnect the spark plug cables before performing any cleaning, maintenance or repairs.

When working use suitable work clothing and work footwear. Use suitable gloves when handling a mowing blade or for activities where there is a risk of cuts.

Avoid spilling fuel, oils or other harmful substances.

Do not perform any major repairs if you do not have the necessary tools and a good knowledge about repairs of combustion engines!

Dispose of used oil, fuel or other hazardous substances and materials in accordance environmental protection regulations in force.

6.2.1 BEFORE STARTING WORK

INSPECTION OF TYRE PRESSURE

Maintain the prescribed tyre pressure and check it regularly. Maintaining the prescribed tyre pressure is important for even mowing. Various pressure values may cause difficulty in driving, or even loss of control over the mower.

Tyre pressure differs according to the type used. The correct tyre pressure is always provided on the tyres.

INSPECTION OF THE OIL LEVEL IN THE ENGINE

Park the riding mower on a horizontal surface. Open the hood and unscrew the cap of the filling opening. Screw out the oil dipstick, wipe it dry, reinsert it and screw in. Then again screw it out and take the oil level reading.

The oil level must be between the two marks on the dipstick. If it is not, fill up with motor oil so that it reaches the "FULL" mark.

Further details about checking and filling of oil are included in a separate user's manual supplied by the engine's manufacturer.

INSPECTION OF CABLES AND BOLT CONNECTIONS

Visually inspect the condition of cables and manually check the tightness of bolt connections.

INSPECTION OF WORKING ORDER OF BRAKES

Check that the brakes work properly. Proceed as follows:

▶ Park the mower on an even surface and turn off the engine.
▶ Step on the brake pedal and engage the parking brake.
▶ Using the bypass lever disengage the rear wheel drive.
▶ Try to push the mower forward. If the rear wheels rotate, then the brakes need to be serviced. Contact an authorised service centre to have them adjusted.

6.2.2 AFTER FINISHING WORK

CONFIGURING THE MOWER

After finishing mowing, elevate the mowing deck to the highest position and disable the drive for the mowing blades.

Turn off the ignition, step on the brake pedal and secure the mower in position with the parking brake.

CLEANING THE MOWER

▶ Remove all dirt and grass remains from the surface of the mower.
▶ Also remove grass, dust and other flammable materials from the edge of the exhaust.

CLEANING THE MOWING DECK

The mowing deck must be carefully cleaned after every use, namely the inside walls of the deck. Use a scraper, spatula or a current of water for cleaning. Proper maintenance and treatment of the mowing deck improves work quality and the mower's lifespan. Proceed as follows:

▶ Secure the mower against movement.
▶ Elevate the mowing deck to the transport position.
▶ Lift (tilt out) the protective metal cover on the right side of the chamber. Clean out the entire area of the mowing deck.
▶ While cleaning also check the condition of the blades (6.3.6).

WASHING THE MOWER

We do not recommend cleaning the mower using high pressure water! If despite this you do clean in this way, ensure that water does not enter the carburettor, air filter, ignition, exhaust, battery and other electrical components.

Never direct the water current at the ball bearings (bearings in the blade holder, wheels) or on to parts in which there is oil (oil filter, filler neck, etc.)

Before washing it, park the mower on a suitable even surface.

▶ Plastic parts on the mower:

- clean using a sponge and soapy water

6.3 REGULAR CHECKS, MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENTS

6.3.1 BATTERY

Correct and regular maintenance of the battery will extend its lifespan. Therefore, regularly check its condition according to the manual supplied by the battery's manufacturer.

• Keep the battery contacts clean. If dirt accumulates on them, or they are rusty, clean them according to the recommendations of the battery's manufacturer. Interruption of the circuit caused by the oxidation of the contacts may lead to the malfunction of the recharging function of the engine!
  ▶ A flat battery needs to be recharged as soon as possible, otherwise its cells may be irreparably damaged.
  ▶ It is always necessary to charge the battery before:

• first use

• when not planning on using it for a long time
• before starting up after a longer break
• in other cases, specified in the user's manual of the battery drawn up by its manufacturer.

▶ If it is necessary to replace the battery, always use a battery of the same size and type.

Further details about checking and maintaining batteries are included in a separate user's manual supplied by the battery's manufacturer.

6.3.2 ENGINE

CHANGING OIL

Before changing the oil, prepare a container with a volume of at least 2 litres. So that all the oil flows out of the engine we recommend that you place something (e.g. wooden blocks) under the side opposite the drain bolt. Drain the oil while it is still warm.

▶ Unscrew the bottleneck cap of the oil so that the oil flows better and faster out of the engine.
▶ Unscrew the drain bolt and allow the oil to fully flow out into the prepared container.
- Screw the drain bolt back on and fill the engine with the correct amount of the recommended oil (User's manual for the engine) and close the oil bottleneck cap.
▶ Use the dipstick to check the correct oil level. If necessary fill up the oil so that the oil is at the correct level.

Diagram of a mechanical device with a drain and base, showing fluid flow or material movement (no text or symbols)

Further details about replacing oil as well as its type and amount are included in a separate user's manual supplied by the engine's manufacturer.

If you come into contact with used oil, we recommend that you thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water.

Dispose of used oil according to environment protection laws. It is appropriate to deliver the oil in a closed container to a used oil collection point. Under no circumstances should dispose of the used oil with other waste or pour it down the drain, on to waste or on the floor.

MAINTENANCE OF THE AIR FILTER

Never allow the engine to run without an air filter. This rapidly wears out the engine.

Maintain the air filter according to the instructions contained in the user's manual for the engine supplied by its manufacturer.

MAINTENANCE OF THE SPARK PLUG

For the engine to run perfectly the spark plug must be correctly set and clean from deposits.

Always use only the spark plug specified by the engine's manufacturer!

If the engine was running shortly before the inspection or replacement, then the spark plug will be very hot. So be very careful not to burn yourself.

▶ Take off the spark plug cable and remove the spark plug using a wrench key.
▶ Visually inspect the exterior appearance of the spark plug. If the spark plug is visibly significantly worn out or if the insulator is cracked or it is peeling, it is necessary to replace it.
▶ If the spark plug is soiled or only slightly worn, it is necessary to carefully clean it with a suitable wire brush (copper).
▶ Using a gauge measure set the distance of the electrodes (User's manual for the engine).
▶ After performing maintenance on or replacing the spark plug, pull it tight in position. An incorrectly tightened spark plug heats up significantly and may cause serious damage to the engine.

0,7 - 0,8 mm

Check, maintain and replace spark plugs according to the instructions contained in the user's manual for the engine supplied by its manufacturer.

REPLACEMENT OF THE FUEL FILTER

Never allow the engine to run without a fuel filter. This rapidly wears out the engine.

Replace the fuel filter according to the instructions contained in the user's manual for the engine supplied by its manufacturer.

MAINTENANCE OF THE ENGINE COOLING

Before each use or during work check that the grille on the engine is not clogged with grass remains or other objects. Clean the grille if necessary!

After every 100 hours of operation or once a year remove the fan cover and clean soiled and clogged areas and the cooling fins of the engine. This will avoid the engine from overheating or being damaged. Clean more frequently if necessary.

6.3.3 REPLACING LIGHT BULBS

Light bulbs are seated in a holder and are accessible after lifting the hood.

▶ Turn the rotating lock holding down the front hood, remove the light bulb by sliding it out of the holder, e.g. using a screwdriver and reinsert. Return the lid of the hood

The light bulb type and its rating are specified in the spare parts catalogue.

6.3.4 REPLACING A FUSE

If a fuse is damaged the engine will immediately shut off, the mowing deck will stop and all indicator lights on the dash board will turn off. In this case it is necessary to find the faulty fuse and replace it with a new one. Under no circumstances should you replace a faulty fuse with a fuse that has a higher current rating!

▶ Release the screw holding down the front hood, lift the hood and remove the protective fuse cover.
Remove the old fuse and insert a new fuse with the same value as the initial fuse, i.e. 20 A or 10 A.

Top-down technical line drawing of a vehicle's rear compartment showing internal components and a circular component with an arrow (no text or symbols)

If even after replacing the fuse the engine or the mowing deck will not work, contact an authorised service centre.

Under no circumstances should you attempt to remove the control unit of the electrical system!

If you wish to lift the riding mower, use a jack and supports.

Proceed as follows:

Place the jack underneath the gear box on the rear axle and lift the rear part of the mower.
- Insert two supports underneath the ends of the axles from the inner side of the rear wheels.
▶ Lift the front part of the mower and insert two supports under both ends of the front wheel axles.

Never lean the mower to the side where the carburettor is located. Oil could enter the air filter!

6.3.6 MOWING DECK - CHECKING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE MOWING BLADES

Before each use of the riding mower check the condition of the blades (damage, wear, condition of the cutting edge). If the blades are blunt, bent or broken it will negatively affect mowing quality. Damaged blades are very dangerous.

A part of the material could break off and be deflected from the work area of the mower.

Whenever handling the mowing blades, always use heavy-duty work gloves.

REPLACING BLADES

If due to frequent use the blades are worn or damaged, they cannot be balanced or sharpened properly, it is necessary to replace them immediately.

The blades are sharpened from both sides so in the event that one side is blunt, it is possible to turn the blade around.

Always completely replace both blades and use new M16 lock nuts for attachment. This will ensure that the mowing deck is balanced and that the blades are securely attached. Proceed as follows:

▶ Turn off the engine and take the key out of the ignition.
- Secure the mower against movement.
▶ Elevate the mowing deck to the transport position.
▶ Open the metal cover on the right side of the mowing deck chamber.
▶ Screw out the M16 lock nut.
▶ Take off the fasting bolt, O-ring and blade.

Install a new or sharpened blade proceeding in the reverse sequence.

▶ Use new, unused M16 lock nuts.

▶ Before replacing the second blade turn the blade holder with your hand by 180°.

Replace the second blade following the same procedure as for the replacement of the first blade.

When reinstalling the blades, ensure that they are correctly fastened and secured in place!

70 ± 10 Nm 275 ± 25 Nm 175 ± 25 Nm

SHARPENING THE BLADES

The mowing blades must be sharp, statically balanced and straight. Blunt, incorrectly sharpened or damaged mowing blades cause grass to be torn out of the ground, damage to lawns and mediocre collection of mowed grass in the grass catcher.

If the blades are merely blunt and do not exhibit any other damage, then they may be sharpened. After sharpening the pair of blades must be balanced. Balancing will prevent vibrations of the mowing deck. The weight difference between the individual blades may not exceed 2g. During replacement always also check the wear on the distance sleeves and mounting bolts, ensuring they are in perfect condition. If serious damage to the mowing deck is discovered it is necessary to have the mower thoroughly inspected at an authorised service centre.

Always use a new, unused M16 lock nut. Never reuse a lock nut that has already been used, because safe attachment of the blade cannot be guaranteed!

Do not repair a blade that is deformed or otherwise damaged, replace it immediately.

Whenever handling the mowing blades, always use heavy-duty work gloves.

Sharpening procedure:

▶ Turn off the engine and take the key out of the ignition.
▶ Secure the mower against movement.
▶ Elevate the mowing deck to the transport position.
▶ Open the metal cover on the right side of the mowing deck chamber.
▶ Screw out the M16 lock nut.
▶ Take off the fasting bolt, distance sleeve and blade.
▶ Remove the second blade in the same way as the first.
▶ Clean both blades.
▶ First sharpen with a grinder and then with a file.

Technical line drawing of a mechanical device with starburst light emission (no text or symbols)

Do not sharpen directly on the mowing deck.

Install the sharpened blade proceeding in the reverse sequence.

▶ Use new, unused M16 lock nuts.
▶ Before replacing the second blade turn the blade holder with your hand by 180^ .

6.3.7 MOWING DECK - CHECKING THE DRIVE PULLEY OF THE DECK

6.3.7

The mowing deck drive belt pulley and belt are protected under a plastic cover. For the purpose of cleaning, inspection and adjustment, this cover can be removed by unscrewing the two screws on its sides.

Before every use of the mower, check the fastening bolt of the pulley. The bolt should be pulled tight with a torque of 80 Nm.

The belt pulley is accessible after lowering the mowing deck to the lowest position.

80 Nm

6.3.8 CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE DRIVE BELT

When working on various parts of the mower's drive always turn off the engine and take the key out of the ignition.

Regularly check the wear and tension of V-belts and the tensioning mechanism.

The drive V-belts (travel and mowing) are automatically tensioned by a spring and a pulley. Before starting work or at least after every 50 hours of operation check the wear on the V-belts and the working order of the tensioning mechanism.

Adjust the position of the drive belt tensioning pulley using adjusting nuts.

Distance A = 46 mm.

Distance B = 78 mm (set the mowing deck elevation adjustment lever to the second last position)

When attaching a new belt pay special attention when working with the mower because the belt is not yet sufficiently run-in.

6.3.9 REPLACING BELTS

Replacing the drive belts is a relatively demanding operation, which needs to perform by an authorised service centre.

If cruise control is activated and the drive lever is independently returning to position "N", then it is necessary to adjust the cruise control lever. Have this task performed at a specialised service centre.

6.3.11 REPLACING WHEELS

Before replacing one of the wheels, park the mower on a horizontal and rigid surface, turn off the engine and remove the key from the ignition. Secure the mower against movement. Do not replace the wheel if the mower is not sufficiently secured in the elevated position!

If you do not have suitable tools or the necessary knowledge, contact your vendor.

Perform the replacement as follows:

Place the jack underneath the front or rear bumper near to the wheel which you wish to replace. For model AC 92-23 4x4 – always place the jack against the frame - do not lean it on the transmission, this could damage it!
▶ Keep lifting the mower until the wheel, which you wish to change no longer touches the ground.
▶ Remove the protective cover from the wheel.
▶ Using a suitable screwdriver remove the retaining ring and remove the washer.
▶ Pull the wheel off the shaft.

When reattaching the wheel proceed in the reverse sequence to its removal. Before attaching the wheel clean all parts and lightly grease the shaft with a plastic lubricant. Especially for wheels on the rear axle this lubrication is essential for the subsequent removal of the wheel. In the event that lubrication is not performed the subsequent attachment may be very difficult.

When attaching the rear wheel pay attention to the mutual alignment of the pin on the shaft and the groove on the wheel.

Finally, check the tyre pressure.

6.3.12 REPAIRING A TYRE PUNCTURE

The mower is equipped with tubeless tyres. In the event of a puncture, have it repaired at a specialised tyre repair shop or at an authorised Seco mower service centre.

6.3.13 MAINTENANCE OF THE HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION

6.4

For the reliable operation of the transmission it is necessary to maintain the correct oil level. In the event of problems with the transmission immediately seek the help of an authorised service centre, there is a risk of serious damage to the transmission.

Mower model Oil type Oil level
92 EVO SAE	10W-40, API CD At least to half the height of the equalisation tank
92 EVO 4x4 SAE	5W-50 synthetic oil	Between the marks on the dipstick in the tank cap (total oil volume in the hydraulic system is 6l)

MODELO

N° DE SERIE

ADQUIRIDO POR EL SR.

After the end of the season or if you will not be using your riding mower for more than 30 days, make sure to prepare your mower for storage as soon as possible. If fuel remains in the petrol tank without movement for more than 30 days, a sticky deposit may form, which can have a negative effect on the carburettor and cause poor engine operation. For this reason empty the petrol tank.

Never store the riding mower with a full petrol tank inside of buildings or poorly ventilated areas, where there are fuel vapours, open flames, sparking or lighting flames, furnaces, central heating, dry rags, etc. Handle fuels and lubricants with care, they are highly flammable and careless handling may lead to serious burns or damage to property.

Only empty the petrol tank into approved containers outdoors away from open flames.

Recommended procedure for preparing the riding mower for storage:

▶ Thoroughly clean the entire mower, especially inside the mowing deck (6.2.2).

Never use petrol for cleaning. Use degreasing agents and warm water.

▶ Repair and paint dinted places to prevent corrosion from occurring.
▶ Replace faulty or worn out parts and tighten all loose nuts and bolts.
Prepare the engine for storage according to the user's manual for the operation and maintenance of the engine.
▶ Lubricate all lubrication locations according to the lubrication diagram (6.4).
▶ Take out the battery, clean it and charge it fully. Store the battery in a cool, dry location, as necessary. Charge the battery every 30 days and regularly check its voltage.
- Store the riding mower covered in a clean and dry environment.

The best way to ensure the riding mower's ideal operating condition for the next season is to have it inspected and tuned at an authorised service centre every year.

8.1 MOWER BELTS

It is not necessary to release the belts when the mower is taken out of operation for an extended period of time. When the mower is started up for use again, we strongly recommend that you allow the mower belts to run free for at least 5 minutes. This will prevent vibrations and ensure that after an extended period of inactivity the belts will align into the correct working position.

9. DISPOSAL OF THE MOWER

After the operational life of the mower is over, the owner of the mower is responsible for its disposal. This may be performed in two ways:

a) Hand the mower over to an authorised company (scrap yard, secondary waste collection point, etc.). You will receive documented confirmation of the handover for disposal.
b) Dispose of the mower yourself. In this case we recommend the following procedure:

▶ Dispose of the product utilising recyclable material according to the applicable waste disposal law.
▶ Disassemble the entire mower.
▶ Parts that can be reused should be cleaned, preserved and stored for further use.
▶ Sort the remaining parts into those that are and are not environmentally friendly, e.g. rubber parts (gaskets), lubricant remains in the bearings or on gears. The environmentally harmful components must be handled according to the relevant waste disposal law applicable in the country of the user.
▶ Sort the waste according to the Wastes Catalogue in accordance with the relevant ordinance. Ecologically friendly waste shall be treated as reusable material.
