FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

This safety symbol indicates important safety

messages in this manual. When you see this

symbol, be alert to the possibility of injury, carefully

read the message that follows, and inform other

operators.

2.1 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• Ensure that the instructions in this book are

read and fully understood.

• No person should be allowed to operate this

machine unless they are fully acquainted with

all the controls and the safety procedures.

• Never allow children or people unfamiliar with

these instructions to use this machine. Local

regulations may restrict the age of the

operator.

2.2 SAFETY SIGNS

• It is essential all safety labels are kept

legible, if they are missing or illegible they

must be replaced. If any part of the machine

is replaced and it originally carried a safety

label, a new label must be affixed to the

replacement part. New safety labels are

obtainable from Ransomes dealers.

2.3 STARTING THE ENGINE

• Before starting the engine check that the

brakes are applied, drives are in neutral,

guards are in position and intact, and

bystanders are clear of the machine.

• Do not run the engine in a building without

adequate ventilation.

2.4 DRIVING THE MACHINE

• Before moving the machine, check to ensure

that all parts are in good working order,

paying particular attention to brakes, tyres,

steering and the security of cutting blades.

• Replace faulty silencers, mow only in daylight

or good artificial light

• Always observe the Highway Code both on

and off the roads. Keep alert and aware at all

times. Watch out for traffic when crossing or

near roadways.

• Stop the blades rotating before crossing

surfaces other than grass.

• Remember that some people are deaf or blind

and that children and animals can be

unpredictable.

• Keep travelling speeds low enough for an

emergency stop to be effective and safe at all

times, in any conditions.

• Remove or avoid obstructions in the area to

be cut, thus reducing the possibility of injury

2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

to yourself and/or bystanders.

• When reversing, take special care to ensure

that the area behind is clear of obstructions

and/or bystanders. DO NOT carry passengers.

• Keep in mind that the operator or user is

responsible for accidents or hazards occurring

to other people or their property.

• When the machine is to be parked, stored or

left unattended, lower the cutting means unless

the transport locks are being used.

• While mowing, always wear substantial

footwear and long trousers. Do not operate the

equipment when barefoot or wearing open

sandals.

• Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or

deterioration. After striking a foreign object

Inspect the lawnmower for damage and make

repairs before restarting and operating the

equipment.

• If the machine starts to vibrate abnormally,

check immediately.

2.5 TRANSPORTING

• Ensure that the cutting units are securely

fastened in the transport position. Do not

transport with cutting mechanism rotating.

• Drive the machine with due consideration of

road and surface conditions, inclines and local

undulations.

2.6 LEAVING THE DRIVING POSITION

• Park the machine on level ground.

• Before leaving the driving position, stop the

engine and make sure all moving parts are

stationary. Apply brakes and disengage all

drives. Remove the starter key.

2.7 SLOPES

TAKE EXTRA CARE WHEN WORKING ON

SLOPES

• Local undulations and sinkage will change the

general slope. Avoid ground conditions which

can cause the machine to slide.

• Keep machine speeds low on slopes and

during tight turns.

• Remember there is no such thing as a “safe”

slope.

• Travel on grass slopes requires particular care.

2.8 BLOCKED CUTTING CYLINDERS

• Stop the engine and make sure all moving

parts are stationary.

• Apply brakes and disengage all drives.

GB-5

JACOBSEN FAIRWAY CUTTING UNITS

REAR ROLLER BRUSH KIT

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

• Release blockages with care. Keep all parts

of the body away from the cutting edge.

Beware of energy in the drive which can

cause rotation when the blockage is released.

• Keep other people away from the cutting units

as rotation of one cylinder can cause the

others to rotate.

2.9 ADJUSTMENTS, LUBRICATION AND

MAINTENANCE

• Stop the engine and make sure all moving

parts are stationary.

• Apply brakes and disengage all drives.

• Read all the appropriate servicing instructions.

• Use only the replacement parts supplied by

the original manufacturer.

• When adjusting the cutting cylinders take

care not to get hands and feet trapped when

rotating cylinders.

• Make sure that other people are not touching

any cutting units, as rotation of one cylinder

can cause the others to rotate.

• To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine,

silencer and battery compartments free of

grass, leaves or excessive grease.

• Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.

• When working underneath lifted parts or

machines, make sure adequate support Is

provided.

• Do not dismantle the machine without

releasing or restraining forces which can

cause parts to move suddenly.

DANGER - Indicates an imminently hazardous

situation which, if not avoided, WILL result in death

or serious injury.

WARNING - Indicates a potentially hazardous

situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in

death or serious injury.

CAUTION - Indicates a potentially hazardous
