Notes: Safety Instructions 4. Replace faulty silencers. 5. Before using always inspect to see that the blades, bolts and cutter assembly are not worn or damaged. 6. Check the condition of the tyres and ensure that they are inflated to the correct pressure (refer to the specifications). This is particularly important if the machine is to be taken on the public highway. 7. Check the mower is in good working order, paying particular attention to brakes and steering. 8.
Controls and Indicators - Dashboard Notes: O IGNITION CUTER ON/OFF SWITCH The ‘Key Start’ controls both the ignition and the starter. Insert the key and turn to the 1st position, the dashlights will come on (check that all is ready to start), then turn further to activate the starter. Release when engine starts. To stop, turn the key to the left (having first switched off both cutter and PTO). The cutter switch controls the Electromagnetic Blade Clutch.

Engine - Oil OIL DRAINING NOTE: OIL SHOULD BE CHANGED WITHOUT FAIL AFTER THE FIRST FIVE HOURS OF RUNNING. The A20/50 Tractor has an oil drain adaptor (fig 1) located on the right hand (off side) of the engine. This is like a bayonet light fitting, which you push in and turn anti-clockwise to release. A short length of clear hose is supplied in the toolkit that fits on this adaptor so that waste oil can be poured into a can or bottle.
Cutter Deck - Check List Tyres - Removal of Wheels CUTTER FAILS TO START OR CUTS OUT WHEN SWITCHED ON Check: * Are you on the Tractor? – Unless you sit on the seat the safety switch cuts out the Cutter Deck. * Is the battery low? – The Clutch Engage Switch will only operate if the battery is well charged. * Does the 10Amp-blade fuse on the printed circuit board need replacing? (see page 22) * That either the cutter switch or the safety switch on the seat is not faulty – if so, call your dealer.
Tyres - Check List Countax Tractors are fitted with grassland tyres that are designed to present a large area to the ground for grip; and are soft profile to prevent marking your turf. They are of thicker section and tougher than most 4 ply tyres. Persistent punctures and tyre deflation are nevertheless a problem experienced by about 5% of Countax customers. This is not a problem just for Countax owners – it is shared by the users of all types of off-road machinery fitted with pneumatic tyres.
Cutter Levelling Side to Side Collector Brush LEVELLING SIDE TO SIDE Adjustment is best done with the Deck in a position one up from its lowest cut – check the level both sides and levelling is then achieved by adjusting the left (nearside) of the Deck at two points: REAR ADJUSTMENT 1. Find the Deck Level Disc (fig 1) near the back nearside wheel. This has a concentric slot in which the Deck Levelling Rod is located. 2.
Collector - Drive Belts REPLACING AND TENSIONING PTO DRIVE BELT CONNECTION It is important that the belt from PTO to collector (Part No. 22923400) is crossed over in the correct direction (fig 1) before being fitted over the collector pulley. The easiest way to do this is to place the belt on the PTO pulley and then stand behind the Tractor holding the belt with two hands. Turn the right hand above the left and fit the belt on to the collector pulley.
Powered Collector CONNECTION To connect the Powered Collector to the Tractor, ensure that both are on an even surface with the Locking Levers (fig 3) on the collector facing the Lift Arms on the Tractor. Move the collector manually to the Tractor. Lower the Lift Arms using the button (Page 6 fig 3) on the dash console. At the end of each Lift Arm you will find a Locating Lug . Slide the Channels on either side of the Powered Collector over the Lugs but do not engage the Locating Lever yet.
