6.3 BATTERY DISPOSAL
DANGER
POTENTIAL HAZARD
♦ Battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid, which is
poisonous and can cause severe burns
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
♦ Swallowing electrolyte can be fatal or if it touches skin
can cause severe burns.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
♦ Wear safety glasses to shield eyes, and rubber gloves
to protect skin and clothing when handling electrolyte.
♦ Do not swallow electrolyte.
Federal law states that batteries should not be placed in the garbage. Management and
disposal practices must be within relevant federal, state or local laws.
If a battery is being replaced or if the unit containing the battery is no longer operating
and is being scrapped, take the battery to a local certified recycling center. If no local
recycling is available return the battery to any certified battery reseller.
7. TROUBLE SHOOTING
7.1 MOWER PULLS LEFT OR RIGHT (W/LEVERS FULLY FORWARD).
a) It is common for a machine to pull slightly left or right with levers fully
forward. Move levers forward and compensate as neccessary
b) Check air pressure in tires; 13 psi/drive, 13 psi/ pneumatic castors.
c) Check reverse indicator and motion control linkage adjustment. See
Section 5.2.10 and 5.2.11.
7.2 MOWER CUTS UNEVENLY.
a) Check air pressure in tires; 13 psi/drive, 13 psi/ pneumatic casters. A
more uniform cutting height may be obtained with higher tire pressure on
rough terrain. A lower tire pressure provides more flotation. Higher
pressures in front casters may cause them to shimmy on hard surfaces.
b) Check deck support chains.
c) Check deck leveling
(See
Adjustments
Section
5.2.2.)
Note: The front of the mower deck will be approximately 1/4”lower than
the back of the mower deck.
d) Check blades tip to tip for straightness (they should be within 3/16" or
one blade width from being in line.)
7.3 ENGINE WILL NOT START.
a) Be sure the throttle control is midway between the “SLOW” and “FAST”
positions, and the choke is in the “ON” position for a cold engine or the
“OFF” position for a warm engine.
b) Make sure there is fuel in the fuel tank and that the fuel valve is open.
c) Operator must be in the seat. Be sure the seat switch is properly
adjusted. See Section 5.2.5.
d) Make sure the parking brake is set and motion control levers are moved
out (neutral lock position).
