OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE USE

Before operating the machine it is important to ensure the following to use the

machine to its full capability and to keep the operator and the surrounding area safe.

Make sure that the operator has read and understood how to use the engine as

per the manufacturer’s instructions

Ensure that the oil and fuel in the engine are as per the engine manufacturers

instructions

Check that all guards and parts are in place

Make sure the throttle control is at its lowest setting

Ensure that the RM45/52 is located on flat, even ground and that there are no

people or animals in the vicinity of its working function

Ensure that the operator has read and understood this manual, including how to

control the machine

Wear the prescribed safety equipment

Check that the lawn that is going to be mowed by the RM45/52 does not

contain any foreign objects such as rocks or nails that can damage the machine

whilst it is in use

DURING OPERATION

Once satisfied that the above criteria have been met, turn on the engine as per the

manufactures instructions. Once running:

Gently pull the throttle lever up until the cylinder starts to rotate. It does not

need to be on full speed, just enough to get the cutting cylinder rotating. Once

the cylinder is rotating gently pull up on the drive lever on the left had side.

It is very important not to come into contact with and foreign debris such as

rocks, kerbing, driveways or reticulation. If the cylinder hits something like that it

will damage it. There could be costly repairs involved which are not covered by

warranty.

When the catcher is about half full you will need to empty it. To do so, put the

throttle control in the bottom position and turning off the engine. Never empty

the catcher whilst the engine is running and the cutting cylinder is rotating.

If the RM45/52’s cutting cylinder stops rotating, the machine has become blocked. To

remove the blockage, ensure that the machine has been turned off, the spark plug

has been disconnected and that the flywheel has no power supply that will make it

rotate while the material is being removed. Once the blockage has been taken out,

the machine can be re-started.

AFTER USE

When you have finished operation of the machine and have turned the engine off:

Allow machine to cool down

Check the machine over to see if there are any irregularities that could impede

your next use

Check fuel and oil levels for next use
