1. DESCRIPTION AND MAIN FEATURES

1.1. INTRODUCTION

This manual contains instructions for use and maintenance as well as the technical data and safety instructions for the machine. The manual must be read carefully before using the machine.

In the event of a transfer or sale, the manual must be handed over together with the machine. If it is damaged or lost, you must request a copy from the manufacturer. The manual is an integral part of the machine.

The content of this manual corresponds to the latest technical information available at the time of printing. The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes at any time without prior notice. In this case, this manual does not lose its validity.

1.2. INFORMATION ON THE MACHINE AND INTENDED USE

The hand-guided, self-propelled, single-axle high grass mower for agricultural purposes is equipped with a front rotor with Y-blades.

These machines are used to cut grass in places where the grass does not need to be collected and where a mower with bulky accessories cannot reach; they are used in small areas, for mending work, in orchards, on the edges of ditches and on relatively sloping hillsides. The cut grass is shredded so that it decomposes quickly.

The machine consists of a load-bearing gearbox assembly on which an internal combustion engine is installed, which drives the front wheels and the engine. The rotor is equipped with blades that rotate around a horizontal axis.

The machine is controlled by an operator from the ground. He controls the movement via a handlebar (guide bar) on which most of the control elements are located.

The application and use of attachments not mentioned in this manual or not authorised by the manufacturer is expressly prohibited. The use of unauthorised attachments will invalidate the product warranty and endanger the safety of the user.

DANGER Any use other than that specified above is classified as improper and dangerous use.

e. Top up with 0.9 litres of new Eni Rotra MP SAE 80W-90 using a filler funnel with extension; the filler hole also serves as a level indicator.
f. Wait for the excess oil to drain and refit the cover (1).

EN

a. Check the oil level in the gearbox housing by loosening the screw (2) (Fig. 15). Top up with oil and allow the excess oil to drain out. Finally, reassemble the cover. NOTE: The oil check must be carried out when the engine is cold and on a level surface.
b. Lubricate the points indicated in Figure 16.
c. Check the gearbox and adjust if necessary:

- The cover (1) of the gearbox must not have any play (Fig. 17) when the lever (1) (Fig. 10) is moved. The bowden cable could elongate over time. Use the adjusting screw (2) to eliminate the resulting play.

ATTENTION

If you reduce the play too much during adjustment, the braking behaviour of the machine will be reduced.

• The cables of the levers (9) and (11) (Fig. 10) must be adjusted so that the levers themselves release the wheels at half stroke (Fig. 18 position b).
- The cable of the drive control lever (Fig. 10 (3)) must be adjusted using the adjusting screw if the machine has difficulty moving forwards. Loosen the adjusting device to restore the tension on the cable and lock the adjusting device using the lock nut;
• The cable of the working tool control lever (1) (Fig. 10) must be adjusted using the adjusting screw (1) (Fig. 19).
To obtain the correct tension, you must unhook the brake in position B (Fig. 20). Hold the lever (1) (Fig. 10) against the adjustment knob. Check by pressing with your finger that the belt allows a deflection of 10 mm (see Fig. 20 pos. A).
To reposition the brake rod, keep the lever (1) (Fig. 10) pressed against the guide bar. Hold the brake pad C (Fig. 20) tightly against the pulley with one hand. In this position, the hole in the fork (point B Fig. 20) must be level with the hole in the tension roller lever. If necessary, the alignment is carried out by loosening / tightening the fork on the threaded rod. Insert the clip pin and release the lever on the guide bar.

Change the oil in the gearbox according to the instructions in the "Run-in" section.

6. WASTE DISPOSAL

At the end of the technical and operational life of the machine, it must be rendered unusable, i.e. it can no longer be used for the purposes for which it was designed and built. In the event of disposal, you must comply with the applicable environmental protection regulations and take the machine to a local collection centre. For more information, contact the local authorities or the nearest collection centre.

SABO-Maschinenfabrik GmbH accepts no liability for damage to persons, animals or property caused by the reuse of individual parts of the machine for functions or assembly other than originally intended.

7. GUARANTEE

Only the enclosed, current SABO guarantee conditions apply.
