The steering wheel is tted with a mechanism
connected to the machine’s hydraulic circuit for
easier steering.
When the engine is running at minimum speed,
use of the steering wheel may become stier as
the pressure in the hydraulic circuit drops.

To stop the machine:
• Disengage the PTO (13:D, 14:D).
• Engage the parking brake (12:B).

Always clean the machine after use. To clean the
machine adhere to the instructions provi-
ded below:
• Do not spray water directly onto the engine.
• Clean the engine with a brush and/or compres-
sed air.
• Clean the motor cooling air intake.
• After cleaning using water, start the machine
and any cutting means assembly to remove
any water which may otherwise end up in the
bearings and cause damage.

stones etc.
8.1 CUTTING HEIGHT
For best results, cut o the top third of the grass.
See g. 22.
If the grass is long and needs cutting back signi-
cantly, cut twice using two dierent cutting heights.
Do not use the lowest cutting heights if the lawn
surface is uneven.
This would entail a risk of the cutting devices being
damaged against the surface and the lawn’s top
layer of soil being removed.
8.2 MOWING TIPS
To get the best mowing results, follow the tips
given below.
• Cut grass frequently.
• Run the machine at full revs.
• Grass should not be wet.
• Use sharp cutting means.
• Keep the bottom side of the cutting device
clean.
9 MAINTENANCE
9.1 ASSISTANCE PROGRAMME
To keep the machine in good working order in terms
of reliability, safety and environmental protection,
always adhere to the GGP servicing programme.
The points of intervention for this programme are il-
lustrated in the attached GGP maintenance manual.
The Basic Service must always be carried out by an
authorized service workshop.
The First Service and Intermediate Service should
be carried out by an authorized service workshop,
but can also be carried out by the user. The procedu-
res are indicated in the handbook and are described
in the chapter “7 START-UP AND OPERATION” as
well as here below.
The checks carried out by an authorized service
workshop guarantee professional workmanship and
the use of genuine spare parts.
The handbook is stamped every time a Basic Ser-
vice is performed and each time an Intermediate
Service is carried out by an authorized service wor-
kshop. A handbook with these stamps increases the
second-hand value of the machine.
