Controls
FOR THE LOCATION OF CONTROLS AND COMPONENTS REF. “MACHINE DESCRIPTION” PAGE 5.
ON / OFF SWITCH (Item 17)
This switch stops the engine and can be used to do so at anytime during the operation of the machine. Ensure it is in the
“ON” position before attempting to start the engine.
'($'0$16&21752/,WHP
This is an operator presence control. It must be raised before the cylinder can be engaged and held in until the cylinder
is disengaged. It can be held with either the left or right control, and when driving will retain itself. When taking up drive
without the cylinder engaged the lever will raise automatically as the “Control Hoop” is pressed. Releasing the lever with
the cylinder engaged will cause the engine to stop.
PARKING BRAKE CONTROL (Item 14)
This controls the parking brake. It is only to be engaged when the machine is stationary, it is NOT to stop the machine
while moving. To engage, (standing behind the machine) pull the lever toward you and rotate clockwise. Push or Pull the
machine slightly until the brake lever engages in the rear axle. It will be clear when this has happened as the rear roller
will lockup.
To disengage, pull the lever toward you and rotate anti-clockwise. Locate the lever in the retainer on the side plate.
THROTTLE CONTROL (Item 4)
This controls the RPM of the engine and the resultant speed of the machine. Pushing the lever down will increase the
RPM, pulling it back returns the engine to idle.
&21752/+223>'5,9(&21752/@,WHP
This controls the machines movement. Pushing the lever towards the handle will engage the friction clutch and cause the
machine to drive. Releasing the hoop will return it to the original position and stop the drive. Pushing the lever will also
raise the ³'HDGPDQV´ controls. This is to eliminate the need to hold the ³'HDGPDQV´ lever while driving the machine.
Before operating the “Control Hoop” the “Parking Brake” must be disengaged. Failure to do this will cause the engine
to stop.
&</,1'(5&21752/,WHP
This controls the cylinder drive. Pushing the lever down will engage the friction clutch and cause the cylinder to rotate.
Before the cylinder can be engaged the ³'HDGPDQV´ lever must be held in. Failing to do this will cause the engine to
stop.
GROOMER CONTROL (Item 16)
This controls the groomer drive. Engagement and disengagement must only be carried out when the cylinder is
stationary. To engage, (standing behind the machine) rotate the lever forwards. To disengage, return the lever to point
backwards.

Remember height of cut is effected by moisture of turf , weight of machine and the
thatch density. Different makes of machine cut at different heights when set to the
same position with the setting bar. We suggest you set it to a couple of mm above your
planned height and then come down in height by trial.

click the adjusters up or down the same on each side until the desired height of
operation is achieved.
Always check height of cut/operation with the setting bar provided. Check in two
positions i.e. one at either end of the cassette. Failure to do this could result in an
uneven cut.
General Adjustments
SETTING FOR HEIGHT OF CUT
Always stop the engine before adjusting the height of cut. Failure
to do this may result in severe injury.
The length of grass after cutting depends on the setting of the
front roller in relation to the main frame of the machine.
The ‘Click’ system allows easy adjustment of the front roller
position, each click representing a change of 0.5mm (0.020”). The
roller is set to be equal on leaving the factory so when the arrows
point forward on both decals the roller is level.
Check it is level using the setting bar between the front and rear
roller with the underside of the screw ledging on the
bottom blade.
Either a ruler or pile of coins can be used to set the setting bar to the correct position. You are measuring the distance
between the bar and the underside of the button head screw (‘XX’ in the Image below).

The main drive to both rear roller and cassette is via hard wearing TBApoly-V type belts
which provide for smooth trouble free operation. To ensure the best performance the
following instructions should be carefully followed.
Belt tension is the single most important factor necessary for long, satisfactory service
life of any belt drive.
Under-tensioning leads to belt slip causing rapid wear; over tensioning means
excessive strain on belt and bearings. Between these two extreme conditions is a
reasonable range of tension within which the belt will operate. Belt tension can be

NOTE
A
Storage
The machine should always be kept in a clean dry place, free from condensation. After use ensure that the machine is
thoroughly clean, dry and free from grass and mud. Before off season storage smear a thin layer of grease on to the
cutter blades and the shear blade.
Under no circumstances must the machine be steam cleaned as this may remove grease from the pre packed bearings.
Because of the nature of lead free petrol we recomend that if the machine is being left unused for more than 2 weeks the
carburetor is run dry. Allow the engine to run out of fuel with the fuel tap switched off.
