Thank you for purchasing an Australian made Greeneld FastCut ride-on mower. Please ensure to follow the
manufacturer’s safety, operang, and maintenance instrucons for many years of trouble free operaon and service.
Before operang the mower, read the owner’s manual carefully. Your Greeneld has been designed to meet stringent
safety standards - but we remind you that a mower is a cung device - used incorrectly, it may cause personal injury
or death. Remove the key from the machine when not in use. Do not allow children or any person unfamiliar with the
safe operang procedure to operate this mower.
Safety Instructions
1. Tesng the seat safety switch.
Acon: Park machine safely, sit on seat, apply park brake, set cuer engagement switch to o, start engine, switch
cuer blades on, raise body o seat but do not get o mower.
Result: Engine will begin to stop. Allow engine to fully stop. If the engine does not stop, there is a fault with the
seat safety switch. Do not aempt to use mower unl the seat safety switch has been inspected and repaired by
an authorized Greeneld dealer.
2. Do not carry passengers.
3. Know the controls. Read the operang instrucons carefully. Learn how to stop the mower and engine quickly in
an emergency.
4.
Do not mow whilst bystanders, especially children or pets, are in the mowing area. Children should be kept safely
supervised. Never assume that children will remain outside of the cung area. Do not reverse before looking
behind.
5. Ensure that the area to be mowed is clear of scks, stones, boles, bones, wire, and other debris that could be
thrown by the blades.
6.
Do not operate the machine without rst inspecng the blades, blade bolts, and blade holder for wear or
damage. Damaged blades or bolts are hazardous.
Always replace blades and blade bolts in sets to preserve
balance.
Replace worn or damaged parts with genuine Greeneld replacement parts only. Use of inferior, non-genuine
service parts could result in damage or personal injury. Refer Maintenance Instrucons pg. 10 for part numbers and
ng instrucons.
7.
Before using, check that the grass catcher (if installed), safety switches, and guards provided by the
manufacturer are operang properly and are ed securely. Regularly check all components on the mower to
ensure the machine is in a safe operang condion.
8. Never mow while barefoot or wearing sandals or thongs. Wear long trousers and heavy shoes. It is also important
to wear suitable hearing and eye protecon.
9. A mower operator should be in good physical and mental health and not under the inuence of any drug, alcohol,
or any other substance that could impair vision, coordinaon, or judgment.
10. Replace worn or faulty exhaust muers.
11. Do not allow grass, garden debris, or grease to build up on the mower, parcularly around the engine. This could
be a re hazard.
12. Always refuel outdoors away from any ame sources. Do not smoke whilst refueling the engine, or fuel near a
source of ignion, such as electrical switches or a gas hot water heater. Never remove the cap from the fuel tank
or add petrol whilst the engine is running or if the engine is hot, always allow to cool. Remove fuel cap slowly to
relieve any tank pressure. Do not overll the fuel tank. If petrol is spilled, do not aempt to start the engine, move
the machine away from the spill area and wipe the machine dry with a clean rag. Do not aempt to start the
machine unl all petrol and vapours have dissipated.

13. Use only an approved container for storing fuel. Never store fuel or the fueled machine in an unvenlated area
or near a source of ignion such as electrical switches or a gas hot water heater.
14. Do not run the engine in a conned space where carbon monoxide and poisonous exhaust fumes can collect.
Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless, deadly poisonous gas.
15. Always disengage the cung blades before starng or stopping the engine.
16. Always mount or dismount the mower from the opposite side to the discharge chute. Always stop the engine
before dismounng. Keep hands and feet clear of the cuer deck.
17. Reduce speed, parcularly when making sharp turns, to prevent overturning or loss of control. Do not stop or
start suddenly when mowing up or down hill. The dierenal acon must be locked out when operang on any
slope to improve tracon, braking, and safety.
18. Never mow up or down hill on slopes which exceed 10°, or mow across the face of a slope which exceeds
5°. Before aempng to mow on any slope, refer to Mowing on Slopes pg.8.
19. Stay alert for holes in the terrain and other hidden hazards.
20. Before crossing paths, driveways, or any other area foreign to mowers, reduce engine speed, disengage the
cung blades, and li the cung aachment to maximum height. Do not drive over obstacles or guers, this
machine has a maximum clearance of 3.5” or 9cm.
21. Watch out for trac when crossing or operang the mower near roadways. Always mow with the safety grass
deector properly ed.
22. When mowing, never direct discharge of material toward bystanders, nor allow anyone near the machine while
in operaon.
23. Before leaving the operator’s posion:
(a) Disengage the cung blades.
(b) Apply the parking brake.
(c) Stop the engine and remove the starter key.
24. Disengage the drive to the cung blades and stop engine:
(a) Before refueling.
(b) Before removing the grass catcher or any aachment.
(c) Before making a height adjustment, unless adjustment is being made from the operator’s posion.
(d) Before clearing blockages.
(e) Before inspecng, cleaning, or working on the mower.
(f) Aer striking a foreign object (inspect the mower for damage and make necessary repairs before restarng

Operating Instructions
Top with clean, regular unleaded petrol only. Do Not Overll. Do not ll above the high level mark on the tank. Make
sure that the petrol is free from impuries, parcularly water. The petrol tank is located inside the engine
compartment. Raise the bonnet for access. Before removing the ller cap from the fuel tank to refuel the machine,
wipe or brush the area clean to prevent any dirt or debris from accidentally falling into the tank when the cap is
removed. Do not use stale petrol in your mower - add clean, fresh fuel only.
Before Starting - Please Do Not Proceed Before Reading Safety Instructions.
Fuel
Check oil level by posioning the mower on level ground. Wipe or brush the area clean around the oil ller/ dipsck
cap, remove the dipsck and wipe clean, replace the dipsck - screwing carefully into posion. Remove again and sight
the oil level. Fill to the full mark. Do not overll. The dipsck must be rmly in place when the engine is running. Refer
to Crankcase Lubricaon pg.10 for oil recommendaons.
Engine oil
Inate to the correct pressure, 20 to 22 psi (140 to 154 KPa) in the front tyres and 12 to 15 psi (84 to 105 KPa) in the
rear tyres. Do not over inate. Over inaon will change the shape of the tyre, adversely aecng the cuer trim and
lt, and may also cause permanent tyre damage, resulng in tyre rupture and possible accident.
Tyres
The cung height adjustment lever is located in the rear cover to the front of the operator. To alter the cung height,
move the lever to the right then shi upward or downward to select the seng, then release to lock in posion. An
indicator panel displays the seng. Use the height seng in the green band for maximum belt life.
Cutting Height
The blade clutch switch is located on the right hand side of the dash panel. To ENGAGE the cuer blades, pull the
switch up. To DISENGAGE the cuer blades, push the switch down.
DANGER:
• When cuer clutch is engaged, high-speed blades are rotang.
• Never use the mower without the safety deector or grass catcher ed.
• Never aempt to dismount from the driver’s seat while engine is running.
Blade Clutch
The operator’s seat is adjustable front to rear. To adjust, push the lever on the le hand side of the seat to the le and
slide the seat forward or backward unl a safe and comfortable seang posion is obtained, then release the lever to
the locked posion. Oil the slides occasionally. The seat is ed with a safety switch. See Tesng Procedure pg.3.
Seat
Apply the park brake, disengage the blade clutch (cuers out). Turn on fuel tap (if ed). For cold starng, the choke
will need to be acvated. On single cylinder models, move the throle control lever up and into the CHOKE posion.
On twin cylinder models ed with a separate choke control, move the throle control to the FAST posion and pull
out and hold the choke control in the choke posion. Turn the starter key to the start posion for a maximum of ten
(10) seconds, to avoid overheang the starter motor. If the engine does not start, it may be ooded. Set the throle
control half way and try again.
Make sure to return the key to the RUN posion aer the engine starts or each me you aempt to start it. Once the
engine is running, move the throle control to the FAST posion on single cylinder models to turn o the CHOKE.
On twin cylinder models with separate choke control, push the CHOKE in fully for correct engine operaon.
To Start The Engine
Important - This Greeneld mower is ed with a safety ‘Cut-Out’ switch, acvated by the seat. The operator must
be seated to start the engine and remain seated while operang the mower. If the operator does not remain seated,
the engine will stop. This safety switch must be kept funconing for your protecon. Adjustment is easily done when
necessary.

In an emergency situaon, turn the key to the STOP posion.
For a normal stop, reduce the engine speed to idle on the throle control, disengage the cuer blades.
Apply the park brake and allow the engine temperature to even out by idling for approximately twenty (20) seconds.
Turn the key to the STOP posion.
Note: Some manufacturers require their engines be stopped in a dierent manner i.e. Briggs & Straon recommends
that their single cylinder engines be shut down at full revs. Please refer to the engine manufacturers book supplied with
this machine for their recommended engine stopping procedure.
Only aer the mower, the engine, and all mechanical funcons of the mower have completely stopped should the
driver dismount from the driver’s seat.
Remove the key and store out of reach of children. This will also ensure that the hour meter will not connue to run
and that power to the electric fuel solenoid valve on the carbureor is shut o.
To Stop The Engine
A simple pivoted mul-purpose foot pedal operated by the driver’s right foot
controls forward, neutral, and reverse. Apply toe pressure to move forward, heel
pressure to move in reverse. Increased toe or heel pressure provides speed
variaon in forward or reverse respecvely. Allow pedal to centralize for neutral. The
manufacturer also recommends this mul-purpose pedal be used as the principle
method of braking when operang this mower. On level ground or moving forward
downhill, the mower can be slowed or stopped by applying toe or heel pressure
opposite to the direconal movement of the mower. When moving forward up hill,
regulang the forward pressure will stop or slow the mower. Sudden or violent
direconal changes and/ or wheel spinning must be avoided. For a detailed explanaon
of the braking systems on this Greeneld FastCut mower, see the secon on Braking
Systems pg.12.
To Operate
Recommended method to proceed down slopes:
Before driving down a slope, shi the throle control to select slow engine revs.
Using toe pressure, keep the mul-purpose foot pedal engaged in the FORWARD drive posion while driving down
the slope. This will limit the forward speed of the mower to the preselected engine speed. To further adjust the
ground speed to suit the condions, use the throle control to raise or lower the engine revs while sll retaining
the necessary toe pressure on the foot pedal to keep forward drive engaged. This pracce eliminates unnecessary
wear and tear on clutches, transmissions, and tyres caused when reverse is used to slow the forward progress of the
mower on slopes. This pracce also ensures that the operator retains beer control of the machine as engaging
reverse in certain circumstances, such as wet grass, could cause the wheels to skid, which may result in loss of
control. Reverse or heel pressure will be needed to stop the mower.
IMPORTANT: Never drive a ride-on mower up or down a slope exceeding 10° or across a slope exceeding 5°.
Safe Operating Hint

Mowing on Slopes
Exercise extreme cauon when operang a ride-on mower on a slope. Slopes are a major cause of p-over and loss of
control accidents involving ride-on mowers. Severe injury or death can occur.
On any slope, the dierenal acon must be locked out for best tracon and braking i.e. both rear wheels driving.
Speed should be reduced on slopes, parcularly when changing direcon.
Do not stop or start on slopes or make sudden speed or direconal changes unless enrely necessary.
Never operate a ride-on mower on any slope if it is wet. Any grass in good condion on slopes can cause your
ride-on mower to slide and cause the brakes to have lile or no eect.
A ride-on mower should only be operated up and down slopes, not across.
Before operang on a slope, remove all loose maer, branches, rocks, etc. and stay clear of holes, erosion, tree roots,
etc. Such hazards can cause unexpected and instantaneous stability changes.
If a totally safe mowing procedure cannot be planned before entering a sloped area, then an alternave method of
cung the area which does not risk the safety of the operator should be used.
Never tow or use any oponal aachment on ANY slope.
Do not mow close to steep drop os.
Never mow up or down hill on slopes
which exceed 10°.
Never mow across the face of a slope
which exceeds 5°.
If the operator of a ride-on mower is not absolutely certain that a slope does not exceed the previous
recommendaons, the area should not be entered unl such me as a properly qualied person has assessed and
reported on the safety of the area.

Some Greeneld FastCut models feature a unique and patented dierenal. This dierenal oers the operator the
opon of the full dierenal acon of the rear wheels for improved steering and a ght turning circle, whilst
eliminang rear wheel scung on ne lawns. Most people will operate their Greeneld mower with the dierenal
operang at all mes. This is the preferred method of operaon and is accomplished by keeping the handle hooked
over the end of the rear axle. See illustraon below.
IMPORTANT: Do not aempt to engage or disengage the dierenal lock from the operator’s seat while the
engine is running.
In situaons such as wet areas, uneven terrain, slippery surfaces, and parcularly when working on any slope, you
must lock out the dierenal acon i.e. both rear wheels driving for improved tracon and braking. This dierenal
must also be locked out when using any aachment such as a dozer blade or when towing. Locking the dierenal is
accomplished by releasing the handle from the end of the rear axle. See B Below. Slight movement of the mower with
the front wheels, other than straight ahead, may be required to engage the locking mechanism.
To return the dierenal to the operang posion, see illustraon below, turn the steering wheel either to the le or
right. Rock the mower back and forth while simultaneously pulling out the engagement handle and locang it over the
end of the axle. Lubricate if necessary.
If the le side rear wheel is removed, make sure that the keyed engagement block slides freely into the square secon
of the engagement plate before nal ghtening of the wheel nuts.
Greeneld dierenals are fully lubricated and sealed for life at the factory. If in the unlikely event that your dierenal
needs service, it must be returned to Greeneld intact. Dierenals that have been tampered with or dismantled will
NOT be considered for warranty. Normal warranty is twenty four (24) months for private use and three (3) months for
commercial use. Extended warranty is available for up to ve (5) years for private use if the servicing condions are
maintained. See your Greeneld dealer for details. During the warranty period, service and spares for dierenals are
only available through the factory.

Maintenance
Warning: Remove the spark plug lead to avoid accidental starng BEFORE aempng any maintenance or
inspecon of the mower.
Change the engine oil aer the rst ve (5) hours of operaon, then every six (6) months or twenty ve (25) working
hours, whichever comes rst. Change more oen in heavy work or dusty condions. Drain the engine oil whilst the
engine is warm then replace. Refer to the engine manufacturer’s book supplied with this machine for specic grade
required for this engine. Briggs & Straon recommends Warranty Cered SAE 30 oil, available from Briggs & Straon
service dealers.
Fill to the full mark indicated on the dipsck. Do not overll. Check oil level by posioning the mower on level ground.
Wipe or brush the area clean around the oil ll/ dipsck cap, remove the dipsck and wipe clean, replace the dipsck
- screwing carefully into posion. Remove again and sight the oil level. Fill to the full mark. Do not overll. The dipsck
must be rmly in place when the engine is running.
Crankcase Lubricaon
Service the air lter as per the engine manufacturer’s booklet. Clean or replace more oen in dusty condions. Never
operate the engine without the lter correctly and securely ed - rapid and expensive wear to the engine will occur.
Air Filter
Remove the blower housing and clean out the grass and debris to prevent engine overheang. Refer to the engine
manufacturers booklet.
Cooling System
A maintenance free baery is ed to your machine.
Note: If the mower is not used for at least ve (5) hours a month, the baery will discharge and could sustain
permanent damage. Do not allow the baery to discharge. Regularly trickle charge the baery with a current not
exceeding three (3) amps per hour for three (3) to four (4) hours to prolong the baery life. Keep the outside of the
baery, especially the terminals, clean and dry and check the baery is held securely.
The maintenance of the baery is the customer’s responsibility, only faulty baeries are covered by the baery
manufacturer’s warranty. Neglect is not covered.
Battery
The rear wheel nuts should be re-tensioned aer the rst ve (5) hours of operaon to 44Nm (33  lbs), then regularly
with your preventave maintenance checks. Before re-tensioning the L.H rear nuts on models ed with dierenals,
make sure that the key engagement block slides freely into the engagement plate.
Wheels
Inate to the correct pressure, 20 to 22 psi (140 to 154 KPa), in the front and 12 to 15 psi (84 to 105 KPa) in the rear.
Do not over inate.
Tyres
Regularly check the condion of the cuer blades and blade bolts, cuer disc, V belt and pulleys, and cuer brake.
Refer to specic secons of the manual for further details regarding blades, V belts, etc.

Never wash your Greeneld mower with a high pressure wash gun. Water and dirt could be blasted past the seals in
the bearings, causing premature bearing failures and rusted pivot points.
•
Never wash your Greeneld mower immediately aer use. The quenching contracon eect from hosing the
machine while at operang temperature could also draw water and dirt into the bearings and cause premature
bearing failures.
• The best way to clean your Greeneld is to use an air hose to blow loose grass, etc. from around pulleys, belts,
and the top of the cuer deck. Wash the exterior with a sponge and bucket, then rinse o with a hose and wipe it
down the same way as you would a car. For maximum machine life, do not spray water directly on the pulleys and
bearings.
• Allow your Greeneld to cool aer use, then clean o all grass and other debris before storing. Scks, stones, or
an accumulaon of grass and other debris will damage belts and fracture pulleys if they go between the pulley and
belt. When operang in these condions, the cuer deck may require more frequent cleaning.
Cleaning
Your Greeneld mower has three (3) greasing points. A grease nipple is ed to each king pin housing in the front axle
beam, the third grease nipple is ed to the steering idler which is located on the centre of the machine close behind
the front axle beam and accessible from under the chassis. Grease these locaons every y (50) hours with a quality
No. 2 lithium base grease or equivalent. It is recommended that your grease gun be ed with a exible hose for easier
access. All other exposed pivot joints, lever points, and slides are to be lubricated with engine oil.
Chassis Lubrication
V belts on Greeneld mowers are self adjusng, although the cuer belt may occasionally require an extra manual
adjustment within its working life. See pg.20. Inspect the V belt regularly and replace if damaged. Part numbers for V
belts are:
32” and 34” Drive V Belt - GT02369 42” Drive V Belt - GT12004
32” and 34” Cuer V Belt - GT02365 42” Cuer V Belt - GT02627
IMPORTANT: To prolong service life, use only genuine Greeneld branded V belts, refuse substutes, non genuine V
belts may render the clutch ineecve, even dangerous.
Belts
Check condion of blades, blade bolts, and blade holder. Replace if damaged or
worn. Damaged or worn blades and bolts are a serious hazard. Always replace
damaged or worn blades and bolts in sets to preserve balance. Use only genuine
Greeneld branded replacement parts. Use of inferior non genuine replacement
parts on your Greeneld mower could result in costly damage or personal injury.
Part numbers for blade and bolt sets are:
32” and 34” Cuer Blade and Bolt Set - GT02139
42” Cuer Blade - GT02632
Illustraon A shows ng procedure for cung blades. Tighten the blade bolt
nuts rmly. Use a 17mm ring spanner. The correct torque is 44Nm (32 lbs). The
blades must be free to move but not loose. Lightly oil the blade pivot point before
ng.
Warning: Always remove the spark plug lead to avoid accidental starng.

This Greeneld ride-on mower is equipped with a mul-purpose Drive/Brake Control Pedal, operated by the driver’s
right foot. It also has an Emergency Brake operated by the le foot and a hand operated Parking Brake. All three
systems are completely independent of one another.
The manufacturer recommends the pivoted Drive/Brake Control Pedal, operated by the driver’s right foot, should be
used as the principle method of braking when operang this mower. The Emergency Brake, operated by the driver’s
le foot, should only be used in an emergency i.e. if the drive/brake pedal ceases to funcon for any reason. The
Parking Brake should only be engaged aer the machine has come to a stop, although this brake can also be used in an
emergency if both other systems have failed.
The recommended Drive/Brake system incorporates two large and very durable low speed clutches that control
forward, reverse, and stopping as selected by the driver. This Drive/Brake system will provide excellent and trouble
free service for all driving and braking requirements for many years under normal condions.
The Emergency Brake, operated by the driver’s le foot, engages a disc brake on the mower’s rear axle. Disc brakes
require expendable brake pads to slow the rotaon of the brake disc. If used only as an emergency brake, as the
manufacturer intends, this brake will not require replacement brake pads for many years, if ever. If however, this brake
receives connual use, the brake pads will quickly wear, requiring regular adjustments and periodic brake pad
replacement.
Under no circumstances should the Emergency Brake be applied whilst the driver is simultaneously acvang the
Drive/Brake pedal. As with all Greeneld mowers, the warranty covers faulty workmanship and materials.
Consumable items, such as brake pads, are not included in the warranty.
As with any brakes, they become less eecve in wet condions and can lose grip on well grassed areas, parcularly if
the grass is in a lush condion or wet. Therefore, it is very important to read and understand all the Safety Instrucons
included throughout this book and parcularly the secon tled Mowing on Slopes that indicates, amongst other
important informaon, the maximum degrees of slope that mowers should be operated on.
IMPORTANT: Read and understand all safety and operang instrucons in this book. Know the controls. Be sure the
area that you are about to enter has no concealed hazards and does not exceed a 10° incline or decline or 5° across.
Periodically test the Emergency Foot Brake. If adjustment is required, follow the instrucons below. The adjusng
screw is located on the brake arm and bears against the sliding brake pad. As the brake pads wear, the brake disc is free
to centralize between the sliding pad and the xed pad. This adjusng screw compensates for wear on both pads and
can be adjusted as described below.
1. Remove the spark plug lead to prevent accidental starng.
2. The adjusng screw is posioned at the rear of the mower, up and inside of the chassis. Access is easier if the rear
of the mower is elevated slightly e.g. place rear wheels on 30cm blocks. Ensure mower cannot roll.
3. Loosen the locknut and screw in the adjusng screw unl the brake pads have minimum clearance on the brake
disc and are not binding.
4. Tighten the locknut while holding the adjusng screw staonary.
5. Check that the brake disc rotates freely between the pads, then replace the mower onto the ground.
6. Replace the spark plug lead.
Brake Pad Wear Adjustment
1. Follow steps 1 & 2 of Brake Pad Wear Adjustment.
2. Remove the pad retainer sha.
3. Remove both brake pads by sliding down from rear of mower.
4. As the new pads will be thicker, it will be necessary to release the locknut and screw out the brake pad adjusng
screw.
5. Fit the new brake pads.
6. Ret the pad retainer sha.
7. Readjust the adjusng screw following steps 1 to 5 of Brake Pad Wear Adjustment. See Illustraon B.
8. Oil all Pivots. Do Not Oil Brake Pads or Disc.

Before checking TILT, which is the forward slant on the Cuer Deck from front to rear, or TRIM, which holds the Cuer
Deck level side to side, rst check the tyres are inated to correct pressures. Also that the front axle beam is level in
the chassis and all four wheels are on the same level, at surface.
1. Remove the spark plug lead to prevent accidental starng.
2. Disengage blade clutch, SWITCH OFF.
3. Set the Trim by adjusng the trim adjusng nuts located on the top liing arms of the cuer deck.
4.
Set the Tilt by loosening the lt adjusng bolts, which connect the boom liing arms to the cuer deck side plates.
5. Set the deck to the correct lt (minimum 6mm lower at the front) then re-ghten both bolts. See illustraon C.

Warning: Remove the spark plug lead to avoid accidental starng BEFORE aempng any maintenance or
inspecon of the mower.
The self-adjusng belt tensioner will automacally adjust to compensate for normal wear and stretch of the V belt.
However, as most belt stretch occurs during the early operang hours of the new belt, the rst adjustment should be
checked aer approximately ve (5) hours of operaon with further checks at the y (50) hour services. Belt tension
can easily be adjusted at the xed idler pulley.
The xed idler pulley has seven (7) bolt hole posions available, plus a sliding adjustable base. To adjust the belt using
the xed pulley bracket, disengage the cuers then loosen the two (2) Nyloc Nuts on the pulley bracket base and slide
the bracket rearward and re-ghten the nuts, or relocate the pulley to the next rearward hole.
Cutter Belt Adjustment
To Remove Cutter V Belt
1. Remove the spark plug lead to prevent accidental starng.
2. Lower the blade height to the LOW posion.
3. Check the blade clutch is disengaged, SWITCH OFF.
4. Remove the V Belt from the engine pulley.
5. Undo the centre nuts and remove the belt guards.
6. Remove the V Belt from the cuer spindle pulley and remove the V Belt from the machine.
To Replace Cutter V Belt
1. Remove the spark plug lead to prevent accidental starng.
2. Lower the blade height to the LOW posion.
3. Check the blade clutch is disengaged, SWITCH OFF.
4. Fit the V Belt to the cuer pulley by maneuvering the belt around the pulley .
5. Posion the belt guard over the bolt and engage on the bracket (ensure the correct guard is used - le and right
sides are dierent - compare to illustraon). With the wings of the belt guard over the belt and pulley, ret the
washer and Nyloc Nut. See illustraon.
IMPORTANT: Before progressing to the next step, check that both pulleys spin freely inside the belt and belt guards
when the cuer clutch is disengaged.
6. Fit the V Belt to the boom groove of the engine pulley. Refer to illustraon E showing cuer V belt run.
7. Replace the spark plug lead.
8. From the operator’s seat, run the engine and engage the cuers to check the V Belt operaon. Refer to Cuer Belt
Adjustment.
Note: A belt run-in period is required as follows - with the height adjusng lever in the green band (mid height
posion) engage cuer blades and run for a minimum of ten (10) minutes at medium engine speed. Ideally, a total
run-in me would be approximately one (1) hour, during which me you can cut grass on a mid height posion.

Steering Stop Adjustment
The steering stops (Item B) are readily seen and accessible from under the right hand side of the chassis with the cuer
deck in the LOW posion. Adjustments should not be necessary, unless the steering has been damaged.
1. Remove the spark plug lead to prevent accidental starng.
2. Check the front wheel alignment, correct if necessary by reseng the adjustable e rods. Also check that the
steering wheel spokes are horizontal when the front wheels are in the straight-ahead posion. Adjust the steering
link if necessary. These adjustments must be completed before any steering stop adjustments are made.
3. Loosen the nuts retaining the two steering stops on the chain sprocket support. Refer illustraon J (item B).
4. Turn the steering wheel full lock to the right unl the right hand king pin is hard against the xed stop (Item A).
5. Slide the right side stop on the chain wheel support unl it hits against the e rod end (Item C). Re-ghten the
locking nut (Item B).
6. Turn the steering wheel full lock to the le then repeat step 5 above.
7. To check your adjustments are correct, turn the steering wheel to either lock, nong stops (Item A and Item B)
make contact at the same moment. This will ensure the smallest turning circle without unnecessary strain on the
steering components.
8. Replace the spark plug lead.

Chain Adjustments
1. Remove the spark plug lead to prevent accidental starng.
2.
Remove the rear cover as follows - Li up the seat and disconnect the wire to the seat cut out switch by
separang the spade connector on the blue wire near the top of the baery. Undo the star knob at the top rear of
the rear cover and posion the height adjustment lever in a mid height posion. Now remove the rear cover and
seat assembly.
3. Loosen the two locking nuts on the chain adjuster mechanism, only enough to allow the mechanism to slide. Use
a 14mm ring spanner or socket.
4. Undo the front adjusng nut on the screw adjusng mechanism, using a 13mm open-end spanner.
5. Using the same spanner adjust the back adjusng nut to take up excess slack in the drive chain. The chain is
tensioned correctly when the slack has been reduced to approximately 3mm. Do not over tension.
6. Re-ghten the two locking nuts. Recheck the chain tension. If necessary the procedure may need to be repeated
and the adjusng nut backed o slightly to comply with the recommended chain tension.
7. Re-ghten the front adjusng nut.
