Before starting the engine, read the oper-

ating instructions and note:

Warning

This symbol marks all paragraphs in these

operating instructions which concern your

safety. Pass all safety instructions to other

users and operators.

Due Use

The planetary mowing drive has exclusively

been designed for all common applications

and tasks in agriculture, forestry, and grass

and park maintenance (due use).

Any other type of operation is considered

undue. The manufacturer is not liable for

any damage resulting from undue use, for

which the risk lies with the user alone.

Due use includes compliance with manu-

facturer’s instructions on operation, main-

tenance and repair.

Any unauthorized changes to the power

mower render manufacturer liability null and

void.

General Instructions on

Safety and Accident

Prevention

Basic Rule:

The standard accident prevention regula-

tions must be adhered to, as well as all other

generally accepted rules governing

operational safety, occupational health and

road traffic regulations.

For drives on public roads, the latest traffic

code applies.

Accordingly, check the power mower for

road and operational safety each time you

take up operation.

Only persons familiar with the power mower

and instructed on the hazards of operation

are allowed to use, maintain and repair the

power mower.

Young persons of 16 years or younger are

not permitted to operate the power 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 power mower for safe operation. Com-

pliance is for your own safety.

When transporting the power mower on ve-

hicles or trailers outside the area to be cul-

tivated, ensure that the engine is shut off.

Careful with rotating tools – keep at a safe

distance!

Beware of coasting tools. Before you start

any maintenance or repair on them, wait

until tools have come to a complete stop.

Foreign powered parts shear and squeeze!

Riding on the attachment during operation

is not permitted.

Implements and weights influence the driv-

ing, steering, braking, and tip-over charac-

teristics of the power mower. Therefore,

ensure steering and braking functions are

sufficient. Match operating speed to

conditions.

Do not change settings of governor. High

engine speed increases risk of accidents.

Working Area and

Hazardous Area

The user is liable to third parties working

within the power mower’s working range.

Staying in the hazardous area is not per-

mitted.

Check the immediate surroundings of the

power mower before you start it. Watch out

for children and animals.

Before you start work, clear the area from

any foreign object. During operation, always

watch out for further objects and remove

them in time.

For operation in enclosed areas, ensure

that a safety distance is kept to enclosures

to prevent damage to tools.

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 turn the engine

off quickly and safely in an emergency

situation.

Ensure that all protective devices are

mounted and positioned to provide pro-

tection.

With no implement mounted, make sure

PTO-shaft is covered with the protective

cap.

Starting the Engine

Do not start engine in closed rooms. The

carbon monoxide contained in the exhaust

fume is extremely toxic when inhaled.

Before you start the engine set all operat-

ing elements to neutral or idling position.

For starting the engine, do not step in front

of the power mower and the implement.

Do not use assist-starting liquids when

using electrical assist-starting devices

(jumper cable). Danger of explosion.

Operation

Never leave the operator’s position at the

steering handle while power mower is at

work.

Never adjust the operating handles during

work – danger!

For all works with the power mower, in par-

ticular for turning, the machine operator

must keep the distance to the machine

given by the steering handles.

Riding on the implement during operation

or in transport is not permitted.

If clogging occurs in the cutting tools in the

implement, shut off the engine and clean

cutting tools or implement with an appro-

priate tool.

In case of damage to the power mower or

to the implement, immediately shut off the

engine and have it repaired.

If steering causes problems, immediately

bring the power mower to a halt and turn

it off. Have the malfunction removed with-

out delay.

If on slopes there is the risk of slipping, the

power mower must be kept in position with

a rod or a rope by a second person. The

accompanying person must stay above the

vehicle at a suitable distance to the working

tools.

If possible, always work across the slope.

End of Operation

Never leave the power mower unattended

with the engine running.

Before you leave the power mower, shut

off the engine.

Secure power mower against unauthorized

use. If power mower is equipped with igni-

tion key, remove the key. For all other

versions, remove spark plug connector.

Implements

Only mount implements with the engine and

PTO shut off.

Always use appropriate tools and wear

gloves when changing implements and

parts thereof.

For mounting and dismounting implements

bring stand into proper position and ensure

stability.

Secure power mower and implements

against rolling off (parking brake, wheel

chocks).

Beware of injuries while coupling imple-

ments. Work with particular care.

Hitch implements as specified and only cou-

ple at specified points.

Secure power mower and implement

against unauthorized use and rolling off

when you leave the machine. If necessary,

install transport or security devices and

secure.

Mowing Implement

Handle with care! Sharp blades of the cut-

ter bar may cause injuries! Remove knife

guards only for mowing and refit immedi-

ately after work has finished.

For transport and storage always mount the

knife guards. Secure finger bars addition-

ally with tension springs.

Do not transport the dismounted cutter bar

without knife guards.

When mounting and dismounting the cut-

ter bar, make sure all blades are protected

by the knife guards.

To exchange the knife and to mount/dis-

mount the knife driver, make sure that you

turn screws away from cutting blades.

For grinding the mowing knives, always

wear safety goggles and gloves.

Weights

Fit weights properly and at specified points.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Never carry out any maintenance or clean-

ing with the engine running.

Before you work on the engine, always re-

move spark plug connector (only for petrol

engines).

Check regularly and, if necessary, replace

all protecting devices and tools subject to

wear and tear.

Replace damaged cutting tools.

Always wear safety gloves and use proper

tools when exchanging cutting tools.

Do not carry out repairs like welding, grind-

ing, drilling, etc. on structural and safety-

relevant parts (e.g. hitch)!

Keep power mower and implement clean

to avoid risk of fire.

Check nuts and bolts regularly for tight fit

and re-tighten, if necessary.

Ensure that you re-install all safety and pro-

tective devices and bring them into their pro-

tective position after maintenance and

cleaning.

Only use original agria spare parts. All other

commercial spare parts must correspond

to quality and technical requirements speci-

fied by agria.

Explanation of Warning Signs

Before any cleaning, maintenance, and re-

pair work shut off the engine and pull spark

plug connector.

With engine running, keep at a safe dis-

tance from cutting tools.

After cleaning with a high-pressure

cleaner, immediately lubricate the rocker

arm support at the mowing drive and the

other lubricating points and shortly oper-

ate the mowing drive so that the entered

water is pressed out. To protect the

bearings against penetrating dirt, sap and

water, there shall be a grease collar at the

bearing points.

Grinding the Mowing Knives

Wear safety goggles and gloves!

After 4–20 operating hours, depend-

ing on the wear on the knives, these

become dull and regrinding is neces-

sary.

For this purpose, we recommend us-

ing a hand grinder of 15,000 – 20,000

rpm with a pot-shaped grinding pin of

25 mm in diameter and approx. 35 mm

in length or a special grinding tool.

Grinding the knives is essential

for a clean and smooth opera-

tion.

 Grinding is done using the front of

the grinding pin only, guiding it from the

back of the knife to the tip of the blade.

 Blades must not heat in the process.

They are destroyed when they turn blue

(glowed out and soft).

 Do not round off the blade tips (P).

 Do not grind the blades in a curve

(P).

 Use a grinding stone to remove any

burr.
