2.2 IDENTIFICATION OF MAIN COMPONENTS
Various main components can be seen on the machine, and these have the fol-
lowing functions:
1. Cutting deck: this is the guard enclosing the rotating blades.
2. Blades: these are what cut the grass. The wings at the ends help convey the
cut grass towards the collector channel.
3. Collector channel: this is the part connecting the cutting deck to the grass-
catcher.
4. Grass-catcher: as well as collecting the grass cuttings, this is also a safety
element in that it stops any objects drawn up by the blades from being thrown
outside of the machine.
5. Stone-guard or deflector (available as optional part): this can be fitted in
place of the grass-catcher and prevents objects drawn up by the blades from
being thrown outside of the machine.
6. Engine: this moves the blades and drives the wheels.
7. Battery: provides the energy for starting the engine. Its specifications and
regulations for use are described in a specific manual.
8. Driver seat: this is where the machine operator sits. It has a sensor for
detecting the presence of the operator which is a safety device.
9. Decals for regulations and safety: give reminders on the main provisions
for working safely, each of which is explained in chapter 1.
10. Inspection hatch: for access to make several adjustments.
