ODUCTION

Dear Customer

Thank y

ou for choosing a McCulloch Fronmower. McCulloch Front Mower are built to a unique design with a front-mounted cutting

unit. The machine is built to give maximum efﬁciency even in small and conﬁned areas.

This operator’s manual is a valuable document. By following its instructions (on operation, service, maintenance, etc.) you will

signiﬁcantly extend the life of the machine and even its second-hand value.

When you sell your McCulloch, make sure you pass on the operator’s manual to the new owner. Ensure that all service steps are

documented. A well-documented service history reduces the costs of seasonal maintenance and inﬂuences the second-hand

value of the machine. Take the operator’s manual along when the machine is left to the workshop for service.

ide-on mower is designed to mow grass on open and level ground surfaces. In addition, there is a number of accessories

recommended by the manufacturer that broadens the application area. Please contact your dealer for more information about

which accessories are available. The machine may only be used with the equipment recommended by the manufacturer. All other

types of use are incorrect. Compliance with and strict adherence to the conditions of operation, service and repair as speciﬁed by

the manufacturer also constitute essential elements of the intended use.

This machine should be operated, serviced and repaired only by persons who are familiar with its particular characteristics and

who are acquainted with the relevant safety procedures.

Accident prevention regulations, all other generally recognised regulations on safety and occupational medicine, and all road trafﬁc

regulations must be observed at all times.

Any arbitrary modiﬁcations carried out to this machine may relieve the manufacturer of liability for any resulting damage or injury.

• Make sure nobody else is in the vicinity of the machine

when you start the engine, engage the drive or drive off.

• Clear the area of objects such as stones, toys, wires, etc.

that may become caught in the blades and be thrown out.

• Stop the engine and prevent the engine from being

started until you have cleaned the outlet channel.

• Look out for the ejector and do not direct it towards

anyone.

• Stop the engine and prevent it from starting before you

clean the cutting unit.

• Remember that the driver is responsible for dangers or

accidents.

• Never carry passengers. The machine is only intended to

be used by one person.

• Always look downwards and backwards before and while

reversing. Keep watch for both large and small obstacles.

• Slow before cornering.

• Switch off the blades when you are not mowing.

• Take care when rounding a ﬁxed object, so that the blades

do not hit it. Never run the machine over foreign objects.

• Only use the machine in daylight or in other well-lit

conditions. Keep the machine at a safe distance from

holes or other irregularities in the ground. Pay attention to

other possible risks.

• Never use the machine if you are tired, if you have

consumed alcohol, or if you are taking other drugs or

medication that can affect your vision, judgement or co-

ordination.

• Keep an eye on the trafﬁc when working close to a road or

when crossing it.

• Never leave the machine unsupervised with the engine

running. Always stop the blades, apply the parking brake,

stop the engine and remove the keys before leaving the

machine.

WARNING! This machine produces an

electromagnetic ﬁeld during operation. This

ﬁeld may under some circumstances

interfere with active or passive medical

implants. To reduce the risk of serious or

fatal injury, we recommend persons with

medical implants to consult their physician

and the medical implant manufacturer

before operating this machine.

WARNING! This machine can sever hands

and feet as well as throw objects. Failure to

emits carbon monoxide, which is a

colourless, poisonous gas. Do not use the

machine in enclosed spaces.

8 – English

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Never allow children or other persons not trained in the

use of the machine to use or service it. Local laws may

regulate the age of the user.

• Use hearing protection to minimise the risk of hearing

impairment.

• Never wear loose-ﬁtting clothing, jewellery or similar that

can get caught in moving parts.

• Never use the machine when barefoot. Always wear

protective shoes or protective boots, preferably with steel

toes.

• Make sure that you have ﬁrst aid equipment close at hand

when using the machine.

Driving on slopes

Driving on slopes is one of the operations where the risk of

the driver losing control of the machine or of it overturning is

the greatest; this can result in serious injury or death. All

slopes demand extra care. If you cannot reverse up a slope or

if you feel unsure, do not mow it.

This is what you do

• Remove obstacles such as stones, branches, etc.

• Mow upwards and downwards, not sideways.

• Do not use the machine on ground that slopes more than

10°.

• Take extra care if any attachments are ﬁtted that can

change the stability of the machine.

• Avoid starting or stopping on a slope. If the tyres start to

slip, stop the blades and drive slowly down the slope.

• Always drive smoothly and slowly on slopes.

• Do not make any sudden changes in speed or direction.

• Avoid unnecessary turns on slopes, if necessary, turn

slowly and gradually downwards if possible. Drive slowly.

Do not turn the wheel sharply.

McCulloch M105-85F: Select a low gear so that you will

not need to stop to change gear. The machine engine-

brakes even better in low gear.

• Watch out for and avoid driving over furrows, holes and

bumps. It is easier for the machine to overturn on uneven

ground. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

• Do not mow too close to edges, ditches or banks. The

machine can suddenly overturn if one wheel comes over

the edge of a steep slope or a ditch, or if an edge gives

way.

• Do not mow wet grass. It is slippery, and tyres can lose

their grip so that the machine skids.

• Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on

the ground.

• When cleaning the chassis, the machine may never be

driven near verges or ditches.

• When mowing, keep away from bushes and other

materials in order to avoid a heating effect.

WARNING! You must use approved personal

protective equipment whenever you use the

machine. Personal protective equipment

cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will

reduce the degree of injury if an accident

does happen. Ask your dealer for help in

choosing the right equipment.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not drive down slopes with the cutting deck raised.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Children

•Serious accidents may occur if you fail to be on your guard

for children in the vicinity of the machine. Children are

often attracted to the machine and mowing. Never

assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

• Keep children away from the area to be mowed and under

close supervision by another adult.

• Keep an eye out and shut off the machine if children enter

the work area.

• Before and during reversing procedures, look behind you

and down for small children.

• Never allow children to ride along. They can fall off and

seriously injure themselves or be in the way for safe

maneuvering of the machine.

• Never allow children to operate the machine.

• Be particularly careful near corners, bushes, trees or

other objects that block your view.

Maintenance

•Stop the engine. Prevent starting by removing the ignition

cable from the spark plug or remove the ignition key

before making any adjustments or carrying out

maintenance.

• Never ﬁll the fuel tank indoors.

• Petrol and petrol fumes are poisonous and extremely

ﬂammable. Be especially careful when handling petrol, as

carelessness can result in personal injury or ﬁre.

• Only store fuel in containers approved for the purpose.

• Never remove the fuel cap and ﬁll the fuel tank when the

engine is running.

• Allow the engine to cool before refuelling. Do not smoke.

Do not ﬁll with fuel in the vicinity of sparks or naked

ﬂames.

• Handle oil, oil ﬁlters, fuel and the battery carefully, of

environmental considerations. Follow the local recycling

requirements.

• Electrical shocks can cause injuries. Do not touch cables

when the engine is running. Do not test the ignition

system with your ﬁngers.

• If leaks arise in the fuel system, the engine must not be

started until the problem has been resolved.

• Store the machine and fuel in such a way that there is no

risk that leaking fuel or fumes can cause any damage.

• Check the fuel level before each use and leave space for

the fuel to expand, because the heat from the engine and

the sun may otherwise cause the fuel to expand and

overﬂow.

• Avoid overﬁlling. If you spill petrol on the machine, wipe up

the spill and wait until it has evaporated before starting the

engine. If you spill on your clothing, change your clothing.

• Allow the machine to cool before performing any actions

in the engine compartment.

• Be especially careful when handling battery acid. Acid on

the skin can cause serious corrosive injuries. In the event

of spillage on the skin wash immediately with water.

• Acid in the eyes can cause blindness. Rinse immediately

with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes and contact a

doctor immediately.

• Take care with battery maintenance. Explosive gases

form in the battery. Never perform maintenance on the

battery while smoking or in the vicinity of open ﬂames or

sparks. This can cause the battery to explode and cause

serious injuries.

• Make sure all nuts and bolts are tightened correctly and

that the equipment is in good condition.

• Do not modify safety equipment. Check regularly to be

sure it works properly. The machine must not be driven if

protective plates, protective covers, safety switches or

other protective devices are not ﬁtted or are defective.

WARNING! The engine and the exhaust

system become very hot during operation.

Risk of burn injuries if touched. When

mowing, keep away from bushes and other

materials in order to avoid a heating effect.

WARNING! The battery contains lead and

lead pollutants, chemicals that are

considered to cause cancer, birth defects or

other reproductive impairment. Wash your

hands after touching the battery.

injuries. Take extra care when loading it onto or off a

vehicle or trailer.

• Use an approved trailer to transport the machine.

To secure the machine on the trailer, two approved

tension belts and four wedge shaped wheel blocks should

be used.

Engage the parking brake and tie the tension belts around

stable parts on the machine, e.g. frame or rear wagon.

Secure the machine by tensioning the belts towards the

back and the front of the trailer respectively.

Place the wheel blocks in front of and behind the rear

wheels.
