PLACING THE MACHINE INTO SERVICE
Make sure the machine is complete and that it has not been damaged during transport.
- Check the levels of the engine oil (fig. 4, A) and hydrostatic transmission oil (fig. 5).
- Check the tyre pressure:
Front wheels 24×12.00 – 12 (1.7 bar)
Rear wheels 20×10.00 – 10 (1.6 bar)
- Check the battery voltage, it must not be less than 12.5 Volts; recharge if necessary.
- If a dry battery has been supplied with separate acid, then to place the machine into service proceed as follows:
1) pour in the acid and wait for 2 hours;
2) charge the battery with a charger set to 12 Volts on a slow charge for 2 hours.
Caution: If this procedure is not observed this could lead to the battery deteriorating and the acid leaking out
during work.
BATTERY
Caution! The gases released by the battery are explosive, so keep it away from naked flames or sparks. Check the
level of the liquid at regular intervals and keep the terminals greased with Vaseline. Impo tant:
- Do not invert the battery poles to avoid damages to the electronic control units.
- Do not run the mower without the battery, as it is equipped with a charge regulator.
- Be careful not to cause any short circuits.
RUNNING IN – CAUTION!
Check the engine oil level, check that there are no hydraulic oil leaks and no loose nuts or bolts, in particular those
fixing the blades and wheels. Adjust the PTO belt tension via the nut placed on the spring (fig. 6, A): the spring has
to be adjusted to a length of 165 mm (see red arrow beside).
IMPORTANT: for the first 25 working hours the forward pedal could be slightly “delayed” (in forward gear only and
especially when the hydraulic oil is still cold and when passing from the reverse gear to the forward gear). This is
not a defect of the machine at all, it is indeed due to the running-in of the hydraulic pump.
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
Before starting the engine always check that:
- the coolant liquid in the radiator is at the right level (fig. 7, ref. A);
- the engine cooling intake grid is thoroughly clean (fig. 7);
- the engine oil is up to the level (fig. 4, A);
- the hydraulic oil is up to the level (fig. 5);
- the forward and reverse pedals (fig. 1 no. 1 and no. 2) are in the stop position;
- the turbine button is in the neutral position (fig. 2 no. 6);
- the PTO push button is in the neutral position (fig. 2 no. 7);
- the air filter is clean (fig. 9);
- the metal grid inside the grass catcher is clean (fig. 10);
- the cutting deck, the load accelerator and the grass entry ducts are clean.
Fill the fuel tank with fuel using a funnel fitted with a very fine mesh filter (fig. 11).
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
STARTING THE ENGINE
Insert the ignition key and turn it to the 1st position (fig. 1 no. 4). The dashboard will turn on. ait for a couple of
seconds for the self-diagnosis process to come to an end and as soon as the Grillo logo disappears from the
dashboard, switch the engine on. Once the engine is on, release the key. To switch off the engine turn the key to
the «0» position.
STARTING WORK
1) Adjust both the seat (fig. 1 no. 15-16-17-18) and the steering position (fig. 1, no. 10).
2) Adjust the cutting height via the button on the dashboard (fig. 2, n. 1). The cutting height label is located on the
mower deck (fig. 12).
3) Accelerate the engine half way (fig. 1 no. 6).
4) Select the turbine speed (fig. 2, no. 6).
5) Keep the PTO button pressed down for more than 0,5 seconds (fig. 2, no. 7) - in order to protect the PTO clutch,
the FD2200TS stage V automatically reduces the engine revolutions, if the lades are engaged at r.p.m. higher
than 1800.
6) Once both the turbine and the mower deck are on, bring the engine r.p.m. to maximum.
7) Gently press down the pedal (fig. 1, no. 1) to choose the forward speed and start working (reverse gear pedal is
in fig. 1, no. 2).

FD2200TS/ Translation of the original instructions
8) hen the grass catcher is full, a sensor (fig. 14, A) automatically disengages the mower deck blades to prevent
the grass chute from clogging; press the button (fig. 1, no. 8) to raise the grass-catcher, then the press the button
(fig. 1, no. 9) to empty it.
9) Then bring the grass-catcher back into position and follow the instructions again starting from no. 3 to keep on
working.
FINISHING WORK
Once mowing has been completed, disengage the blades and the turbine (fig. 2, no. 7). To stop:
1) Release the forward pedal (fig. 1 no. 1 – no. 2).
2) Set the throttle lever to minimum speed (fig. 1, no. 6).
3) Lower the cutting deck to the ground using the appropriate button (fig. 1, no. 7)
4) Turn the engine off by turning the key (fig. 1, no. 4) in the “0” position and engage the parking brake (fig. 1 no.
11).
TIPS FOR THE EFFECTIVE USE OF THIS LAWNMOWER
The machine can also be used under the most demanding conditions without any risk of clogging up. The following
measures must be taken and all devices must be adjusted properly.
1) Before starting work check that the deck and the entry ducts are perfectly clean without any dried grass or soil
residue.
2) Check the ground before mowing, make sure there are no stones, sticks or foreign objects.
3) hile mowing keep the engine at maximum rpm, adjust the speed to suit the height of the grass. Be careful when
coming across tall thick clumps of grass, slow down.
4) Sharpen the mower blades regularly (fig. 13); the cut will be better and the engine will not have to work so hard.
5) After having emptied the grass-catcher, always engage the blades some metres away before driving into the
grass again, so both the cutting deck and grass entry ducts are cleaned and the clutch is protected.
6) Always keep the radiator grid thoroughly clean (fig. 8).
7) Keep the grass catcher grid clean: to remove the grid (fig. 10) take the safety pin out (fig. 15) then lower the lock
lever (fig. 16).
8) Adjust the micro-switch (fig. 14, A) and its support (fig. 14, B) inside the grass-catcher to ensure a uniform filling.
9) If the grass is wet or very tall, do not cut in the lowest position, but at an intermediate height.
10) Check the tension of the mower deck belts and adjust it, if necessary (fig. 6, ref. A).
11) Check that the blades are not worn, especially the fins that push the grass into the load chute (fig. 13).
12) Check the turbine blades for wear.
13) Check that no foreign objects have clogged the turbine.
14) Check the rotation of the duct inside the grass catcher (fig. 14, C).
15) Check the engine rpm (max. 2950 r.p.m. void), they are displayed on the dashboard.
16) Always mow with the engine at maximum rpm; if the engine rpm drop, slow down for a while to allow the engine
to reach the right level again.
17) Check that the blades are fitted properly.
18) Check that the cutting deck fits correctly and is properly aligned with the turbine.
19) CAUTION! For a comfortable drive, the forward and reverse gear pedals (fig. 1, no. 1 and no.2) are fitted with a
servo-control on the pump, during work on slopes press the pedal without straining the engine.
20) The lawnmower FD2200TS stage V is a hydrostatic machine, so it absorbs more power when cold; after a few
minutes the efficiency will be optimal. e inform you that the variable displacement pump and the hydrostatic
engines are of optimal quality and high efficiency: the minimal loss is 5%.
21) The emergency brake pedal (fig. 1 no. 3) must be used ONLY if there is a real emergency. Normally just
release the forward or reverse pedals to stop the machine (fig. 1, no. 1 and no. 2).
22) CAUTION! Do not transfer the machine with the cutter deck raised. Use the cutter deck hydraulic lift (fig. 1, n. 7)
only to drive over obstacles, mount pavements or kerbs. It is compulsory to travel on public streets with a type-
approved machine fitted with a light system, registration plate, with the cutter deck up and with an empty grass
catcher.
MOWING POSITIONS
To adjust the cutting height, use the button (fig. 2, n. 1) and check the cutting label located on the mower deck (fig.
12). hen working on rough terrain, with bumps or humps, it is best to use the deck in the highest cutting position
to avoid impact with the blade. Attention! During cutting the deck lifting lever has to be in the «floating» position
(fig. 1, n. 7 – all forward position).

WORKING ON SLOPES
Slopes should be tackled in an up-and-down movement, being very careful at direction changes that the wheels
uphill do not meet any obstacles (stones, branches, roots, etc.) which could cause loss of control over the machine.
If the drive wheels tend to slip, use the hydraulic control to slightly raise the deck so that more weight is exerted on
the drive wheels, therefore giving more traction. Assess the various conditions and be careful on damp ground and
wet grass because this could cause the mower to slide. hen going downhill, start off at a slow speed and avoid
driving over dry or cut grass because the wheels could lose their grip. hen the differential lock is engaged a
warning light will appear on the dashboard (fig. 2, S). The differential lock engages automatically through a stability
device (fig. 18, A) when the operator is driving downhill and reverses direction, to prevent the rear wheels from
skidding or in the case of loading onto a motor vehicle in reverse motion using ramps Do not manually engage the
differential lock under normal working conditions. However, the differential lock can be manually engaged via the
button on the dashboard (fig. 2, no. 5).
SAFETY DEVICES
Always remember that the engine switches off each time when:
-the operator gets up from the seat, if the parking brake has not been engaged and the blades and the turbine
have not been disengaged.
-If the operators opewrates the forward or reverse gear pedal when the parking brake is engaged.
In addition, the engine will not start if:
-there is no one seated on the driving seat, unless the parking brake has been engaged;
-both the forward and reverse pedals are not in idle position;
CAUTION: hen the parking brake is engaged, it is possible to leave the driving seat, however both the turbine
and the blades cannot be switched on. Should the operator leave the machine with the key inserted, a warning
buzzer will activate after 20 seconds. Any improper action carried out by the operator will be displayed on the
dashboard via an error triangle icon and an acoustic signal.
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
CAUTION!
- Befo e pe fo ming any cleaning, maintenance o epai ope ation always wea suitable clothing and
wo king gloves.
- When the machine o pa t of it is aised to ca y out maintenance ope ations, always emembe to use
suitable tools such as holde s and safety locks.
- When ca ying out maintenance ope ations and/o when the machine is tilted without safety locks o
suppo ts, neve leave it ungua ded in places whe e inexpe ienced people o child en could have easy
access to it.
- P otect the envi onment: ca efully dispose of used oils and any othe pollutant p oduct!
- P ope maintenance and co ect lub ication help to keep the machine fully efficient.
ENGINE
For lubrication intervals follow the directions outlined in the engine manual; it is in any case indispensable to
change both the oil and the filte afte the fi st 250 wo king hou s.
For the diesel engine use exclusively 15 40 oil (API CJ-4), quantity 6,5 litres. To change the oil open the radiator
on the right side of the lawnmower using the handle (fig. 24). The filling cap and the oil level gauge are located
behind the radiator (fig. 4, A – C). The plug to drain the exhaust oil is located down next to the oil pan (fig. 17).
hen changing the oil, replace both the oil filter (fig. 4, B) and the diesel filter (fig. 19). Make sure the engine is
maintained properly with a clean air filter (fig. 9) and the engine oil up to the level (fig. 4, A). Keep the engine
compartment, the muffler area and the collectors clean. Use a vacuum cleaner if possible. Check the air filter (fig. 8)
and the pre-filter every 8 hours or even more frequently in dusty conditions. In order not to reduce the air needed to
cool the radiator, the grid must always be kept clear. Make sure the radiator is always clean (fig. 8). The radiator fan
is driven by a hydraulic motor. If the radiator protection grids are obstructed and the cooling fluid and hydraulic oil
temperature rises above 96° C, a sensor automatically inverts the direction of rotation of the fan for a few seconds
in order to clean the grids. This operation can also be activated manually by pressing down for a few seconds the
fan inverter button (fig. 2 no. 4). To check and clean the radiator fan use the handle (fig. 24).
AIR FILTER
Check the air filter every 8 hours or more frequently when working in a very dusty environment (fig. 9). The air filter
is fitted with a depression sensor signalling with a warning light on the dashboard (fig. 2, C) that the filter is clogged.
For the substitution and the exact maintenance intervals please follow the instructions and warnings in the engine
manual. To get access to the cartridge, remove the filter rear cap by pulling the yellow lever (fig. 27, A) and then by
turning the cap anti-clockwise (fig. 27). The air filter is equipped with two cartridges (fig. 26), the primary one (fig.
26, A) and a secondary safety one (fig. 26, B): these cartridges are mounted pressed down – pull them out to
remove them.
10

FD2200TS/ Translation of the original instructions
DIESEL PUMP
There is an electric pump (fig. 28, A) in the fuel oil feed circuit that takes fuel from the tank and sends it to the filter
(refer to the engine manual). Should the machine finish the fuel, fill in the filter with fresh fuel then insert the ignition
key. The fuel circuit will this way be filled in by the pump.
DIESEL FILTER
Change the diesel filter cartridge (fig. 19) every 250 hours, or more frequently if you notice impurities in the diesel
decanting device (fig. 28, B). Check the container at every use and empty it every 50 hours. For replacement and
the exact maintenance intervals please follow the instructions and advice in the engine manual.
DIESEL DECANTING DEVICE
The decanting device (fig. 28, B) makes it possible for liquid impurities in the diesel or water to deposit on the
ground so that they do not come into contact with any engine components. Clean the decanting device every 250
hours, and also wash the inside of the lid with clean diesel. Check the decanting device at every use and empty it
every 50 hours.
If the red plastic ring inside the decanting device starts to float, there are impurities so the device needs to be
thoroughly cleaned. For cleaning and exact maintenance intervals please follow the instructions and advice in the
engine manual. Caution: hen you fill the diesel tank, always use a very fine filter.
RADIATOR REFILLING
If the liquid in the cooling circuit is low, you need to refill it via the refilling cap on the expansion tank situated on the
right side of the driving seat: to uncover it, remove the black protection on top of the cowling (fig. 29). Carry out this
procedure when the engine is cold.
The expansion tank is equipped with a liquid level sensor. If the coolant liquid goes below the safety limit for more
than 30 seconds, the safety electronic control unit will start an emergency procedure to protect the engine. A red
warning light will appear on the dashboard for about 30 seconds (fig. 2, N), a warning buzzer will activate, the
appropriate icon will flash on the dashboard and the PTO will be disengaged (no way to engage it again). After 30
seconds the engine will switch off. It won’t be possible to restart the engine without having restored the coolant level
first. Check if there are any oil leakages in the cooling system then refill the radiator via the expansion tank.
HYDRAULIC OIL
Frequently check the oil level in the tank when the machine is cold (fig. 5). It should reach half of the indicator. If
necessary, add hydraulic oil OSO 46 (total amount of 36 litres – fig. 7, B). IMPORTANT: replace the hydraulic oil in
the hydraulic motors after the first 500 working hours, then every 1000 working hours.
The oil must be changed before the first 500 working hours if:
-the oil is black;
-the oil has a whitish colour (it is contaminated with water);
-there is black residue (partial oil deterioration).
To remove the oil, unscrew the lower oil reservoir plug (fig. 20). To fill it in, unscrew the upper cap (fig. 7, B). Pay
attention to possible impurities, which may get into the circuit, causing serious problems to the machine. Replace
both the oil and the filter at the same time (fig. 30); pay attention to the filtration level. Do not increase the drive
wheels hydraulic system pressure over 300 ba to avoid damage to the hydraulic pump and wheel engines. To
check the pressure of the hydraulic engines put a pressure gauge on the pressure plugs located on the right side of
the hydraulic pump (fig. 31, A). One plug is for the forward gear, while the other one for the reverse gear. The third
plug located on the side of the hydraulic pump (fig. 31, B) is used to check the inner pressure of the hydraulic pump.
ith the engine at maximum rpm, the pressure of this pump should be 27 bar. Should this value be higher or lower,
this could mean that the hydraulic pump has been damaged.
155 cm MOWER DECK GEARBOXES
Use synthetic oil LSX 75 90, 1.8 litres, to be changed every 300 hours. The oil level plug is positioned over the
gear boxes. If you notice any leakage, check and replace the oil seals to avoid the deterioration of the entire
transmission.
SHARPENING THE BLADES
To check and maintain the blades the mower deck has to be tilted (fig. 13):
1) hydraulically lift the mower deck (button no. 1, fig. 7) and adjust it at the lower cutting position (button no. 1, fig.
2)
2) unhook the two rear pivots (fig. 21, A)
3) insert the two pivots into the bushings under the arm couplings (fig. 22, B)
4) use the cutting height adjustment button (fig. 2, no. 1) to set the mower deck at the maintenance position.
It is not necessary to detach the pto joint or the load chute. Before starting the machine, make sure that the pto joint
is securely connected and that the push button is protruding. A blunt blade pulls at the grass giving it an unsightly
appearance, the cutting edges of the blades must therefore be kept sharp at all times. As the blades wear, they lose
their cutting efficiency and tend to become unbalanced, causing the mower to vibrate; sharpen both blades
uniformly. hen blades are replaced, it is compulsory to replace the blade bolt and nut (fig. 23, A). Do not lock the
11

FD2200TS/ Translation of the original instructions
blade tips: they must be without play, but f ee to float if they hit an object. In order to avoid damage to the
blades, the torque of the blade pin must be of 90 Nm. To remove a blade disc, hold it firmly using safety gloves and
unscrew the fixing plate and the central screw. Caution: the right blade central fixing screw has a left-handed thread
(fig. 23, B). Caution: Always replace damaged or bent blades; never ever try to repair them! AL AYS USE
ORIGINAL BLADES!
ADJUSTMENT OF THE MOWER DECK
A mower deck perfectly adjusted is essential for achieving a uniform cut. ith the machine on a flat surface, check
the tyre pressure. To set the mower deck parallel to the ground use the appropriate rods (fig. 32, A). To remove the
deck from the mower, unhook the two side brackets (fig. 21, A) and the two pins (fig. 25). Unhook the “quick” hook
on the grass chute (fig. 33) and pull forward the whole cutting deck. Caution! When efitting the deck always
emembe to econnect the pto joint. The load chute must be screwed two complete turns and must not hit the
turbine wheel.
GRASS-CATCHER
Always keep the grass-catcher grid thoroughly clean. To remove it (fig. 10), remove the safety pin (fig. 15) and
lower the safety lever (fig. 16). Inside the grass-catcher a sensor is located (fig. 14, A) disengaging both the turbine
and the blades when the grass-catcher is full. This micro-switch can be adjusted (fig. 14, B) to ensure an even and
uniform filling of the grass-catcher depending on the type of grass (longer/shorter grass – dry/wet grass). hen
lowered into the working position, the grass-catcher will have to be perfectly aligned with the turbine joint (fig. 43).
There will have to be a 2-3 mm clearance between the joint holder plate (fig. 43, A) and the rubber buffer (fig. 43,
B). To carry out this adjustment reset the position of both the turbine chute and its joint (fig. 44) using the eight
screws, and shift the grass-catcher forwards or backwards using the rear hinges and changing the length of the
grass-catcher tilting cylinder rods (fig. 45). hen the grass-catcher is lowered into the working position, the safety
micro-switch (fig. 47) located on the left side has to be completely pressed; as soon as the grass-catcher is lifted
and the turbine joints detaches from it, this micro-switch must detect the opening and disengage the PTO.
CAUTION: for the maximum operator’s safety, make sure this micro-switch is always properly adjusted.
PTO BELTS
CAUTION: These belts are special, ONLY USE GENUINE BELTS. To replace them, loosen the rod (fig. 6, A). To
set the tension use a 19mm spanner on the nut, adjusting the tension spring. The spring must be compressed to the
length indicated by the red arrow.
CLUTCH-BRAKE FOR PTO
The FD2200 TS stage V is equipped with a multi-disc electro-hydraulic clutch for PTO (fig. 34) activated via button
on the dashboard (fig. 2 no.7). During work with the PTO engaged, the friction material discs are pressed against
each other by the oil pressure. To make this happen, the working pressure is calibrated at 9,5 ba with clutch
disengaged (when the clutch is engaged the pressure is set at about 8,5 bar). All clutches are tested under
pressure to prevent oil leakages. This construction design guarantees a long working life and a gentle activation.
In order to meet legal equi ements, the PTO clutch has a brake that stops the cutting blades within 7 seconds
from the moment the clutch is disengaged. Due to the wear of the brake friction material (fig. 34 no.3) blades may
need more than 7 seconds to stop, in that case it is necessary to re-establish the distance between the piston (fig.
34, n. 4) and the clutch housing (fig. 34, n. 5) at 37 mm as per factory calibration.
Follow the instructions below:
1) Switch off the machine.
2) Loosen the counter-ring (fig. 34 no. 1).
3) Reset the distance between the piston (fig. 34, n. 4) and the clutch housing (fig. 34, n. 5) at 37 mm by adjusting
the counter-ring (fig. 34, n. 2).
4) Lock the counter-ring (fig. 34 no.1) against the ring (fig. 34, no.2).
After adjusting it, make sure that the blades stop in less than 7 seconds. Should this not be the case contact an
authorized Grillo dealer because the machine does not meet the safety standa ds and cannot be therefore used in
a safe way.
IMPORTANT: The PTO engagement can be inhibited by activating the button on the left side of the operator’s seat
(fig. 49). If the operator then tries to engage the PTO via the appropriate button on the dashboard (fig. 2, n. 7) a
flashing icon on the dashboard will appear and indicate that the PTO cannot be engaged. This option can be
chosen whenever the operator wants to work with the turbine only.
GRASS-CATCHER LOCK HOOK
The grass catcher lock hook can be adjusted via the appropriate screw. Leave 2 mm free-play to make the hooking
easier when closing.

FD2200TS/ Translation of the original instructions
PEDAL EMERGENCY BRAKE
The brake pedal (fig. 1, n. 3) activates a series of brake linkages (fig. 36) then pulls a cable (fig. 37) acting on the
front wheels. hen this pedal is not activated, it has to remain some mm away from the green frame in order to
have enough stroke for braking. Adjust this position via the adjusting screw (fig. 36, A) and the stop screw (fig. 37,
B). If the operator notices that the machine has lost its braking capacity, adjust the cable using the appropriate
screws (fig. 37, A).
HAND PARKING BRAKE
Always engage the parking brake, even if the machine is self-braking when the engine is cold. Engage the brake by
pulling the lever upwards, to disengage the brake press the button and lower the handle. If the parking brake is
engaged while both blades and turbine are disengaged, the engine keeps on running even if the operator gets off
the machine. Frequently check the proper adjustment of the parking brake wire (fig. 37, C).
CAUTION: Should the machine loose is braking capacity, check first of all the pedal stroke and, if necessary, adjust
the wire acting directly on the wheels (fig. 37, A). Then adjust the wire of the parking brake (fig. 37, C).
IF THE MACHINE DOES NOT HOLD THE STOP POSITION
If the machine does not stop or drives backwards, although the pedals are in the stop position (fig. 1, n. 1-2), adjust
the stroke screws of both pedals (fig. 38). This operation must be carried out by an authorised dealer.
CAUTION: leave at least 1 mm free-play on both pedal, this will make it possible for the lawnmower to hold the stop
position.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The electrical system is protected by fuses which, if blown, cause the whole electrical system to cut out.
1) The 80A/h general fuse (fig. 39) is located on the left side above the air filter and behind the green cover. This
fuse protects the whole electric system.
2) The fuse and relays boxes are located under the seat (fig. 40). On the box cover the operator will find a label
indicating the function for each fuse and relay (fig. 64). To access this box, tilt the seat using both red levers located
under and behind the seat (fig. 41)
Once the fault has been located and epai ed, replace the blown fuse with one of the same rating. Neve
eplace a fuse with anothe of a diffe ent ating.
Some electrical components are positioned behind the inspection black door located over the platform and in front
of the seat (fig. 18). Here are the two electronic control units of the mower, one controlling all micro-switches (fig.
18, B) and the other controlling the engine (fig. 18, C). There is also a stability device/rocker controlling the
automatic engagement of the differential lock (fig. 18, A). The operator will also find the electric plug to check the
diagnosis software of the lawnmower and the engine electronic control unit to search for malfunctioning (this
operation must be carried out by an authorized dealer).
A safety micro-switch detects if the grass catcher is in working position (fig. 35, B), otherwise both the turbine and
the blades will not engage. Another safety micro-switch prevents the blades from engaging if the mower deck is in
transfer position (fig. 46, A).
Should any electrical problem still persist even after having carried out the procedures outlined above, contact an
authorised dealer. Never attempt to carry out complex repairs without having the necessary means and technical
knowledge.
HOW THE MAIN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DEVICES WORK
- Two safety micro-switches detect if both the grass catcher and the mower deck are in working position, otherwise
both the blades and the turbine will not engage. hen the mower deck is raised into transfer position, blades
disengage for safety reasons (fig. 46, A). Should the mower deck already be in transfer position, the blades will, not
engage.
- A micro-switch is located on the engine cylinder head detecting the temperature of the coolant liquid. If the
temperature goes over 96°C the micro-switch activates the electronic control unit which starts the automatic
cleaning cycle, reversing the radiator fans rotation for a few seconds. It is possible to carry out the cleaning cycle
manually by pushing the button on the dashboard (fig. 2 no. 4). Do not f equently activate the manual cleaning
cycle, because this could inc ease the engine tempe atu e.
- This micro-switch also displays the coolant liquid temperature on the dashboard (fig. 2, n. 9) sending a warning
alarm in case of engine overheating, that is if the engine temperature gets over 108°C. In this case the engine
r.p.m. will be automatically reduced (it would be no longer possible to go over 1800 r.p.m.), the PTO will be
disengaged or prevent it from engaging, a danger flashing icon will appear on the display and a warning buzzer will
activate. Should the temperature rise above 110°C, the engine will be switched off and it would be no longer
possible to switch it on again until it has cooled down. In this case, do not restart the engine but carry out a
diagnosis to identify the source of this problem.
- A sensor is located in the engine cylinder block to detect the oil pressure. Should the pressure fall, the engine will
immediately switch off and both a red warning light and a danger icon will appear on the dashboard (fig. 2, B).
- Two micro-switches are located on the forward and reverse gear pedals detecting the neutral position to start the
engine (fig.38). The micro-switch located on the reverse gear pedal also activates the warning buzzer.
- A micro-switch is located on the parking brake lever under the black plastic cover detecting when the parking
15

FD2200TS/ Translation of the original instructions
brake is engaged allowing the engine to keep on running even if the operator leaves the seat.
- A sensor is located on the emergency brake pedal activating the stop lights on the rear light bar.
- The differential lock electro-valve is located behind the radiator (fig. 42); when this electro-valve is switched on a
green LED is ON.
- The full grass-catcher micro-switch is located on the motorised baffle inside the grass-catcher and switches the
blades off when the grass-catcher is full (fig. 14, A).
- The closed grass-catcher micro-switch is located on the left side of the grass-catcher (fig. 35, B), it disengages the
PTO or prevent it from engaging when the grass-catcher is raised.
- A micro-switch is located inside the seat cushion detecting if the operator is seated. hen the operator is seated
and therefore this micro-switch is pressed down/activated, the PTO can be engaged (if the parking brake is
disengaged), the hydraulic functions can be activated and the engine keeps on running even if the parking brake is
disengaged.
- A sensor is located on the radiator detecting the hydraulic oil temperature. Should this temperature rise above
82°C, the appropriate warning light illuminates on the dashboard (fig. 2, Q).
- The engine air filter is fitted with a sensor activating a warning light on the dashboard (fig. 2, C) when the air filter
is clogged preventing a proper flow of air to the engine.
- A level sensor is located in the engine coolant liquid tank (fig. 7, A). It detects when the coolant liquid is
insufficient, therefore protecting the engine (see paragraph RADIATOR REFILLING).
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF) REGENERATION
The FD2200TS stage V is equipped with a common rail engine, an EGR valve and a particulate filter to reduce the
emission of particulate matter (PM10).
The cleaning of the filtering system (regeneration) is controlled by the engine electronic control unit (fig. 18, C) and
can be automatic, manual or forced. Any kind of regeneration only takes place if the engine is running and its
temperature is over 60°C.
Automatic egene ation: the regeneration for the model FD2200TS stage V will start automatically in almost every
case. A warning light will illuminate on the dashboard (fig. 2, G) signalling that the regeneration has started. Should
the engine be switched off by the operator, the regeneration will be interrupted.
Manual egene ation: should the regeneration be interrupted several times or inhibited for a long time (see
paragraph below), the sensors inside the filter will detect a level of particulate matter too high. A manual
regeneration will therefore be needed. A warning light will illuminate on the dashboard (fig. 2, F). In case of a
manual regeneration follow the instructions below:
- Bring the engine temperature to more than 60°
- Engage the parking brake
- Reduce engine r.p.m. to the minimum
- Push the manual regeneration button for longer than 1 second. This button is placed on the right side of the
operator’s seat (fig. 48, A).
Once this procedure has been carried out, a warning light of “regeneration currently underway” will illuminate on the
dashboard (fig. 2, G), instead of the previous one (fig. 2, F) that will switch off. The manual regeneration has been
initiated and it will take about 20 minutes to complete the cycle. Notice that the operator can ignore the request of
manual regeneration and keep on working. It will be then signalled again (via warning light fig. 2, F) that a
regeneration cycle is needed. Should the operator ignore the regeneration request for long and therefore the level
of particulate matter overcomes the set value (filter clogged), the engine power will be reduced by 50%. To restore
the functions of the machine, it will be necessary to start a manual regeneration.
Fo ced egene ation: This option is normally used in case of rental machines. To prevent the customer from facing
and emergency regeneration during work, a forced regeneration cycle is initiated by the dealer before renting the
machine. In case of a forced regeneration follow the instructions below:
- Bring the engine temperature to more than 60°
- Engage the parking brake
- Reduce engine r.p.m. to the minimum
- Push the manual regeneration button for more than 3 seconds. This button is placed on the right side of the
operator’s seat (fig. 48, A). The warning light will illuminate on the dashboard (fig. 2, F).
- Release the button
- Push the manual regeneration button again (fig. 48, A)
Once this procedure has been carried out, a warning light of “regeneration currently underway will illuminate on the
dashboard (fig. 2, G), instead of the previous one (fig. 2, F) that will switch off. This regeneration will take about 20
minutes to complete the cycle. Note that a forced regeneration can be initiated only after 50 hours from the last
regeneration of any kind.
Regene ation inhibition: During regeneration cycles, very high temperatures in the DPF can be reached. hen
working in very dry and dusty environment, it could be useful to prevent the machine from initiating automatic
regeneration cycles. This function can be activated using the same button located on the right side of the seat (fig.
48, B). A warning light will illuminate on the dashboard for three seconds and a warning buzzer will activate. Then
an icon will be displayed below on the right side of the screen (fig. 51) and the warning light of the regeneration will
switch on (fig. 2, F). Should this button be left pressed down for too long and should therefore the level of particulate
matter overcome the set value (filter clogged), the engine power will be reduced by50%. In this specific case, every
16

FD2200TS/ Translation of the original instructions
time the machine is started, a flashing icon on the display and a warning buzzer will notify the operator that the
regeneration inhibition function is activated.
Impo tant: During the regeneration cycle very high temperatures are reached (up to 850°C). Do not carry out
regeneration cycles on dusty and very dry grounds to avoid possible fires.
USEFUL ADVICE FOR A CORRECT USE AND PROPER MAINTENANCE OF COMMON-RAIL ENGINES
Always use fresh and clean fuel for engines. Should the fuel tank be completely empty: fill the diesel filte with
fuel, fill the tank and tu n the ignition key into the 1st position to let the elect ic pump fill the ci cuit . Then
start the engine. Use exclusively 15 40 oil (API CJ-4) for common-rail engines. For a proper maintenance follow
the instructions described in the engine manual. However it is compulso y to eplace both the engine oil and
filte afte the fi st 50 wo king hou s then eve y 250 wo king hou s. hen having the engine serviced, never
loosen the high pressure diesel feeding pump fittings on the engine; when the engine is running, the injection
systems wo ks at 1800 BAR, it is therefore highly dangerous to loosen them.
It is generally recommended not to leave the engine unning at min. .p.m. for longer periods. Such engines are
especially designed for working steadily at max. r.p.m. and very high temperatures. In fact at lower r.p.m. the air
filter gets clogged faster.
Do not switch the engine off if the orange warning light of the high temperature exhaust gas is ON. It indicates that
the exhaust gases are hot and that a regeneration cycle has been activated. Be careful if this orange warning light
and the red engine warning light are ON at the same time.
Neve emove no clean the DPF filte : only authorised and specialised staff can carry out such maintenance
operations safely and efficiently. Should warning light and/or warning buzzers activate, never disconnect the
sensors from the engine. Such sensors are part of the CAN-BUS system and are very sensitive, they could be
damaged. Neve unde take any ope ation without the necessa y skills and knowledge. Engine failures are
recorded by the electronic control unit but if the operator detaches the connectors of the sensors, fuses and relays
when the key is inserted, other warning lights and/or buzzers will activate making it difficult to identify the real
problem. So before carrying out any control, always switch off the lawnmower and remove the ignition key.
TURBINE
The turbine is located under the operator’s seat. To start the turbine, select the turbine speed (fig. 2, no. 6) press
the PTO button (fig. 2, no. 7). The speed selection button has three different positions:
- if the button is pressed towards the operator, the turbine is not engaged. Even if the operator pushes the PTO
button (fig. 7, no. 2) the turbine will not engage (only the blades will be engaged if they’ve not been previously
impaired using the button no. 49) and a crossed-out turbine icon will flash on the display. The same icon will remain
on in the lower central panel (fig. 50).
- if the button is pressed in the middle position (1st speed position), the turbine will work at a reduced speed. The
crossed-out turbine icon will remain on until the PTO button is pressed down (fig. 2, no. 7). The turbine will
immediately engage and after a couple of seconds the blades too will engage. The warning light of both the PTO
(fig. 2, U) and the turbine (fig. 2, T) will switch on the display as well as a symbol of a turtle (reduced speed turbine
– fig. 57).
- if the button is pressed down towards the steering wheel (2nd speed position) the turbine will work at max. speed.
The crossed-out turbine icon will remain on until the PTO button is pressed down (fig. 2, no. 7). The turbine will
immediately engage and after a couple of seconds the blades too will engage. The warning light of both the PTO
(fig. 2, U) and the turbine (fig. 2, T) will switch on the display as well as a symbol of a hare (max speed turbine – fig.
58).
Important: if the PTO is disengaged the icon of the crossed-out turbine will always be displayed (fig. 50) irrespective
of the turbine button (fig. 2, no. 6), because the turbine is obviously not working. Once the turbine has been
engaged (fig. 2, no. 6) it will be possible to choose the speed at any time as well as to switch it off. However, once
the turbine has been switched off while the blades are still turning, it won’t be able to restart the turbine via the
turbine button (fig. 2, no. 6). It will be necessary to press the PTO button (fig. 2, no. 7).
It is also possible to use the turbine only, while the blades remain disengaged, if the operator wants to connect a
suction pipe to collect leaves or mowed grass. To choose this option, press the button located lower on the left side
of the operator’s seat (fig. 49). This will prevent the PTO clutch from being engaged. Then choose the turbine speed
via the appropriate button (fig. 2, no. 6) and press the button (fig. 2, no. 7) so that the turbine only will engage.
