4.1. Montaža

- Priključek za košaro za travo: Assemble the grass bag frame and fabric, then hook it onto the rear of the mower.
- Mulching Plug/Side Deflector: Depending on your desired operation, insert the mulching plug into the rear discharge opening or attach the side discharge deflector to the side opening.
4.2. Gorivo in olje
IMPORTANT: The engine is shipped without oil. Add oil before starting the engine.
- Motorno olje: Fill the engine with appropriate 4-stroke engine oil (e.g., SAE 30 or 10W-30) to the 'Full' mark on the dipstick. Refer to the engine manual for exact specifications and capacity.
- Gorivo: Fill the fuel tank with fresh, unleaded gasoline (minimum 87 octane). Do not use E85 fuel.
4.3. Nastavitev višine košnje
The cutting height can be adjusted using the semi-centralized levers on each axle. There are 6 positions available, ranging from 28 mm to 92 mm.
- Ensure the engine is off and the spark plug wire is disconnected.
- Povlecite ročico za nastavitev višine navzven in jo premaknite v želeni položaj.
- Za enakomerno košnjo se prepričajte, da so vsa kolesa nastavljena na enako višino.
5. Navodila za uporabo
5.1. Zagon motorja
- Prepričajte se, da je rezervoar za gorivo napolnjen in da je nivo olja pravilen.
- Pritisnite bučko za gorivo (če je nameščena) 3–5-krat, dokler ni vidno gorivo.
- Držite krmilno palico za prisotnost upravljavca ob ročaju.
- Pull the starter cord with a brisk, continuous motion until the engine starts.
5.2. Engaging Self-Propel
Once the engine is running, engage the self-propel lever (usually located on the handlebar) to activate the drive wheels. Release the lever to disengage self-propel.
5.3. Tehnike košnje
- Pakiranje: Attach the grass bag. This collects clippings for disposal.
- Mulčenje: Insert the mulching plug. This finely chops grass clippings and returns them to the lawn as natural fertilizer.
- Stranski izpust: Attach the side discharge deflector. This disperses clippings to the side, useful for taller grass where mulching or bagging is not ideal.
- Za najboljše rezultate se izogibajte košnji več kot ene tretjine dolžine travne lamele naenkrat.
5.4. Ustavitev motorja
Release the operator presence control bar to stop the engine. The blade will stop rotating within a few seconds.
6. Vzdrževanje
WARNING: Always turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire before performing any maintenance or cleaning.
6.1. Čiščenje
- Po vsaki uporabi očistite spodnjo stran kosilne ploščadi, da preprečite nabiranje trave.
- Zunanjost kosilnice obrišite zamp cloth. Do not use a pressure washer directly on the engine or electrical components.
6.2. Nega rezil
- Redno pregledujte rezilo glede ostrine in morebitnih poškodb. Topo rezilo trga travo, kar vodi do nezdrave trate.
- Sharpen or replace the blade as needed. Always use genuine MTD replacement parts.
6.3. Vzdrževanje motorja
Refer to the separate Briggs & Stratton engine manual for detailed maintenance schedules. General tasks include:
- Menjava olja: Change engine oil after the first 5 hours of operation, then every 25-50 hours or annually.
- Zračni filter: Redno čistite ali menjajte zračni filter, zlasti v prašnih pogojih.
- Vžigalna svečka: Svečko vsako leto pregledajte in očistite ali zamenjajte.
6.4. Shranjevanje
Before storing the mower for an extended period:
- Kosilnico temeljito očistite.
- Drain the fuel or add a fuel stabilizer.
- Zamenjajte motorno olje.
- Remove the spark plug and pour a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder, then slowly pull the starter cord a few times to distribute the oil. Reinstall the spark plug.
- Store in a dry, well-ventilated area. The foldable handlebar allows for compact storage.
