A perfect, thick lawn is achieved by

– Mowing at high speed (throttle lever in

MAX position) and a slow driving

speed.

– Regular mowing and keeping the grass

short.

– Not cutting the lawn too short in hot, dry

conditions as it will be burnt by the sun

and become unsightly.

– Using sharp mowing blades. Mowing

blades should therefore be regularly

sharpened or replaced.

– Changing the cutting direction.

Mowing tall grass

If the grass is very high, it is better to mow

it in two stages:

– use the highest cutting height,

maximum engine speed and slow

driving speed for the first mowing

operation;

– for the second mowing operation, select

the desired cutting height and set the

maximum engine speed. Adjust the

driving speed to the condition of the

lawn.

Preventing blockage of the discharge

chute

If the discharge chute becomes blocked

with grass, reduce the driving speed. This

may be too high in relation to the lawn

conditions. Pull out the slide of the level

sensor fully. (Ö 8.19)

If the problem persists, the probable cause

is damaged or worn wings on the mowing

blades. Replace the mowing blades.

(Ö 15.13)

Clean the mowing deck, discharge chute

and mowing blades after each use to

prevent the accumulation of grass

deposits. (Ö 15.2)

Fertilisation

Mowing the grass deprives the ground of

permanent nutrients, which can be

returned by using a high-grade, long-term

lawn fertiliser. Usually, fertilising three

times per mowing season is necessary.

For this purpose, the lawn should be dry,

so that the fertiliser does not stick to the

grass blades and burns them. It is then

better to water the lawn, which results in

the fertiliser being flushed off the grass

blades. (observe manufacturer's

instructions for use.)

Natural fertilising is possible using lawn

clippings. This is made possible by the use

of the mulching kit. The mulching kit is

available as a special accessory and is not

included in the standard equipment.

(Further information is available from your

VIKING specialist dealer.)

Ground-conserving working

The most important factors for ground-

conserving working are operating

technique and ground moisture.

In order to achieve clean mowing results,

the driving speed must be adapted to the

condition of the grass to be mowed (height

and density) and to the moisture of the

lawn.

Executing curves that are too tight

increases the loading on the turf and leads

to poor mowing results, particularly on wet

grass, as the wheels sink into the soft

grass.

The machine is equipped with several

safety devices for safe operation and for

the prevention of improper use.

Note

Check the mowing deck for correct

installation position before starting

work.

Select a flat, even area for initial

use of your machine and mow in

straight and slightly overlapping

strips for practising purposes.

Grass should always be mowed

when dry.

Warning – fire hazard!

Avoid overloading the mowing deck

drive. Overloading may lead to

constant slipping of the V-belt and

consequently to a fire hazard due to

overheating.

Unusual running noise, e.g. a

"squealing" (slipping noise) of the

V-belt, indicates overloading. For

this reason, never mow in high

grass when the discharge chute is

blocked or the grass catcher box is

full; use a mulching kit (special

accessory) if necessary.

The mowing deck, particularly the

V-belt area, must always be kept

free of combustible material (grass,

leaves, etc.). It should also be

cleaned regularly to prevent a fire

hazard.

12. Safety devices

Risk of injury!

If a safety device is found to be

defective, the machine must not be

operated. Consult a specialist

dealer; VIKING recommends

VIKING specialist dealers.

Hello,
We Have a Viking MT 5097Z.
The engine stopped at once.
When i turn on the Key to run it, the 10A fuse melts (twice) - not the 15A fuse.
Is it possible one relay is broken (short-circuit) ? - N° 18,19, 25, 26 on the electric map -
Or what other possibility?
Thank's for your answer
Best regards
Franck
