Safety instructions (cutter bar)
Risk of injury from sharp blades on the cutter bar! Always fit
the protective bar when the cutter bar is not in use.
If the device is used for mowing food or fodder, all parts that
come into contact with it may only be lubricated with oils or
greases that are suitable / approved for this purpose.
Information on mowing
Observe the working instructions in the chapter of the device
carrier.
Set the engine speed to the maximum permissible speed for
the attachment (see chapter “Setting the maximum permiss-
ible engine speed“). Higher speeds result in higher emis-
sions.
Only mow with a sharp and undamaged blade.
Have the blade sharpened regularly (authorised service
centre).
You can obtain a well-maintained area by mowing regularly.
Areas that are not mown regularly, e.g. interspersed with per-
ennial grass, woody shoots, shrubs, etc., cannot be mown
without difficulty.
Adjust the driving speed to the mowing conditions so that the
grass is cut evenly.
Avoid mowing areas where grass has already been cut to
prevent blockages.
Beware! The cutter bar can be damaged by collision with
obstacles.
– Keep a lateral distance from obstacles.
– Do not mow into obstacles.
Remove the clippings after mowing.
Recycle or dispose of the clippings properly or in accordance
with local regulations.
A dirty ventilation grid causes overheating of the engine
which can result in engine damage. A dirty protective grid at
the silencer poses a fire hazard.
Frequent engagement and disengagement leads to in-
creased wear of the drive belt and components of the drive.
Especially engaging under load, e.g. in high grass, leads to
overload.
In order to cut the grass on level ground and lay it down
evenly, we recommend following the mowing patterns shown
above.
In order to cut the grass on the slope and lay it down evenly,
we recommend following the mowing patterns shown above.
or safety reasons, always mow across the slope if possible.
If possible, always turn uphill.

Safety instructions (attachment flail bar)
Observe the safety instructions at the beginning of these op-
erating instructions.
Information on mowing
Observe the working instructions in the chapter of the device
carrier.
Set the engine speed to the maximum permissible speed for
the attachment (see chapter “Setting the maximum permiss-
ible engine speed“). Higher speeds result in higher emis-
sions.
Frequent engagement and disengagement of the clutch in-
creases wear of the blade drive belt and the blade brake. Es-
pecially in case of high grass, clutch engagement leads to
overload.
To keep the area well maintained, mow frequently and keep
the grass short.
For mowing, always turn the accelerator lever to full throttle
to achieve the best mowing performance.
To avoid blockage during the ejection of grass, we recom-
mend, for flat terrain, to proceed according to the mowing
patterns. Mulch is shredded into much smaller pieces when
you mow the terrain once again in the opposite direction.
If the grass is extremely high, mow twice at different cutting
height settings.
In order to cut the grass on the slope and lay it down evenly,
we recommend following the mowing patterns shown above.
