Before starting the engine, read the
operating instructions and note:
Warning
This symbol marks all paragraphs in
these operating instructions which con-
cern your safety. Pass all safety instruc-
tions to other users and operators.
Also read and observe the safety re-
gulations in the operating instruc-
tions for the engine.
Due Use
The flail mower is in accordance with
both the state-of-the-art technology and
the applicable safety regulations at the
time of its introduction within the scope
of its designated use.
The mulcher is for cutting/mulching
grass and other similar plants, scrub or
woodlike vegetation up to a diameter
of 35 mm and is used in agriculture and
forestry in conjunction with a hand-
guided automotive uniaxial machine
approved in accordance with the Agria
sales list, which drives the mulcher
(approved use).
Any other type of operation is conside-
red undue. The manufacturer is not lia-
ble for any damage resulting from un-
due use, for which the risk lies with the
user alone.
Due use includes compliance with ma-
nufacturer’s instructions on operation,
maintenance and repair.
Any unauthorized changes to the flail
mower render manufacturer liability null
and void.
The machine is intended for commer-
cial and personal use.
The machine must be operated by trai-
ned personnel in accordance with the
specifications given in the operating in-
structions.
Any form of improper use and all activi-
ties with the machine which are not de-
scribed in these instructions are
unauthorized misuse and fall outside
the legal warranty limits of the
manufacturer.
In cases of improper use:
- people are endangered,
- the machine and other property of the
operator may be damaged,
- the functioning of the machine may
be impaired.
Reasonably foreseeable misuses
Forms of foreseeable misuse and im-
proper handling are:
- removal/manipulation of protective and
safety equipment
- use with non-approved base units
(from the competition)
- not keeping to maintenance intervals
- lack of measurement and inspection
for early detection of damage
- lack of replacement of worn parts
- incorrectly executed maintenance and
repair work
- lack of execution of maintenance and
repair work
- improper use
- work with defective electrical or me-
chanical equipment
- transportation and manoeuvring with
attachment switched on.
General Instructions on
Safety and Accident
Prevention
Basic Rule:
The standard accident prevention re-
gulations must be adhered to, as well
as all other generally accepted rules go-
verning operational safety, occupatio-
nal health and road traffic regulations.
For drives on public roads, the latest
traffic code applies.
Accordingly, check the flail mower for
road and operational safety each time
you take up operation.
Only persons familiar with the flail mo-
wer and instructed on the hazards of
operation are allowed to use, maintain
and repair the flail mower.
Young persons of 16 years or younger
are not permitted to operate the flail
mower!
Only work in good light and visibility.
Operator’s clothes should fit tightly.
Avoid wearing loosely fitting clothes.
Wear solid shoes.
Note the warning and instruction signs
on the flail mower for safe operation.
Compliance is for your own safety.
When transporting the flail mower on
vehicles or trailers outside the area to
be cultivated, ensure that the engine is
shut off.
Careful with rotating tools – keep at a
safe distance!
Due to its centrifgual mass, the mowing
knife can follow up. During that time,
do not stay too close to the mower hou-
sing. Only when the mowing knife is
completely standing still and the spark
plug connector or ignition key has been
withdrawn, works on the mower are
permitted.
Foreign powered parts shear and
squeeze!
Riding on the machine during operation
is not permitted.
Implements and weights influence the
driving, steering, braking, and tip-over
characteristics of the flail mower. The-
refore, ensure steering and braking
functions are sufficient. Match opera-
ting speed to conditions.
Do not change settings of governor.
High engine speed increases risk of
accidents.
Working Area and Danger
Zone
The user is liable to third parties wor-
king within the flail mower’s working
range (the whole of the area to be cul-
tivated).
Staying in the danger zone is not per-
mitted.
If the operator should notice that a per-
son or animal is staying within this area,
the machine must be shut down without
delay and must not be operated again
before the area is free again.
Check the immediate surroundings of
the machine before you start it. Watch
out for children and animals.
Before you start work, clear the area
from any foreign object. During opera-
tion, always watch out for further ob-
jects and remove them in time.
For operation in enclosed areas, ensu-
re that a safety distance is kept to en-
closures to prevent damage to tools.
Be careful when mowing; ensure that
the mowing knives does not seize
obstacles such as border stones, en-
closures, roots etc.
Operation and
Safety Devices
Before You Start the Engine
Become familiar with the devices and
operating elements and their functions.
Above all, learn how to shut off the en-
gine quickly and safely in an emergen-
cy situation.
Ensure that all protective devices are
mounted and positioned to provide pro-
tection.
Starting the engine
Be careful upon starting and during
mowing; do not come directly close to
the cutting section with your hands or
feet.
When starting, it is not permitted to
bring the flail mower into an upright po-
sition or to tilt it.
For starting the engine, do not step in
front of the flail mower.
Only start the engine from the opera-
tor's position. The engine may not be
started by short-circuiting the electri-
cal connections in the starter, as the
machine could otherwise immediately
be set in motion.
Operation
Never leave the operator’s position at
the steering handle while flail mower is
at work.
Never adjust the operating handles du-
ring work – danger!
For all works with the flail mower, in
particular for turning, the machine ope-
rator must keep the distance to the
machine given by the steering handles.
Riding on the implement during opera-
tion or in transport is not permitted.
If clogging occurs in the mower, shut
off the engine, withdraw the spark plug
connector or ignition key and clean the
mower with an appropriate tool.
In case of damage to the flail mower,
immediately shut off the engine and
have it repaired.
If steering causes problems, immedia-
tely bring the flail mower to a halt and
shut it off. Have the malfunction elimi-
nated without delay.
Driving speed must always be adjusted
to suit the surrounding conditions.

Wear protective gloves.
ving across a slope avoid sudden turns.
When driving in curves switch off the
differential lock. Never disengage the
clutch and change gear on an incline.
If possible, always work across the slo-
pe.
End of Operation
Never leave the flail mower unattended
with the engine running.
Before you leave the flail mower, shut
off the engine, close the fuel cocks and
secure against rolling away.
Secure the machine against unauthori-
zed use. When using an ignition key
take this out, otherwise pull the spark
plug connector.
Mowing Equipment
In cases of improper operation the
sharp blades in the mowing cutters pose
a considerable danger of injury. Wear
protective gloves when working on the
mowing knives.
When changing the mowing knives en-
sure that the screwing movement leads
away from the blade edges.
Protective glasses and protective glo-
ves must be worn when sharpening the
mowing knives.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Never carry out any maintenance or
cleaning with the engine running.
After switching off the drive, the mower
may continue to coast due to its centri-
fugal mass. Do not go too near to the
mower during this time. Only when it
has come to a complete standstill can
it be worked upon.
Check regularly and, if necessary, re-
place all protecting devices and tools
subject to wear and tear.
Replace damaged cutter sections.
Observe maintenance intervals of the
flail knives.
Always wear safety gloves and use pro-
per tools when exchanging the cutter
sections.
Repair work, such as welding, grinding,
drilling etc., is not allowed to be carried
out on load-bearing, safety-critical parts.
Check nuts and bolts regularly for tight
fit and re-tighten, if necessary.
Ensure that you re-install all safety and
protective devices and bring them into
their protective position after mainte-
nance and cleaning.
Only use genuine Agria replacement
parts.
A thorough functional test must be car-
ried out after maintenance work.
Pay attention to the prescribed oil qua-
lity. Only store it in approved types of
container.
Dispose of oils, fuel, grease and filters
separately and according to regulations.
