2. Remove the locking pin and the outermost flat  
washer from the machine’s steering knuckle.  
SYMBOLS  
The following symbols can be found on the  
machine to remind you of the care and attention  
that are required during use.  
3. Thread one deck arm onto the steering knuckle.  
Place the flat washer on the steering knuckle and  
secure with the locking pin. Repeat on the other  
side (fig. 2).  
The symbols mean:  
Warning!  
4. Force the V-belt onto the machine’s pulley A  
(fig. 3).  
Read the instruction manual and the safety  
manual before using the machine.  
5. Lift up the deck’s rear part past the catch until it  
drops down. When the weight of the deck is resting  
on the upper side of the catch, the installation is  
correct (fig. 4).  
Warning!  
Do not insert your hands or feet under the  
cover when the machine is in operation.  
6. Tension the belt with belt idler B. The belt idler  
should be on the inside of the belt and pull out to  
the left (viewed from the driver’s position).  
Warning!  
Watch out for discarded objects. Keep  
onlookers away.  
7. Screw the lift spring into the machine’s lifting  
arm.  
(fig. 5).  
Warning!  
8. Connect the electrical contact to the socket on  
the side of the machine (only applies to item no.  
13-2934), (fig. 6).  
Before starting repair work, remove the  
spark plug cable from the spark plug.  
SETTING  
INTRODUCTION  
In order for the deck to cut evenly and attractively,  
it has to be correctly adjusted:  
107 M  
1. Make sure the air pressure in the tyres is correct:  
Front: 0.4 bar (6 psi).  
Rear: 1.2 bar (17 psi).  
This cutting deck is available as standard in two  
versions:  
- with mechanical setting of the cutting height  
(item no. 13-2930).  
- with factory-fitted, electrical setting  
of the cutting height (item no. 13-2934).  
2. Place the machine on a level floor. Undo the  
screws on either side of the deck (fig. 6).  
3. On the side of the deck arm are four short and  
two long lines. The upper long line (A) is the basic  
setting for a machine with 16” tyres. The lower (B)  
for a machine with 17” tyres (fig. 7).  
INSTALLATION  
DECK ARMS  
Note: Villa has 16” wheels.  
Depending on the length of the grass, the deck can  
be adjusted in various ways:  
1. Install the left and right deck arms in the cutting  
deck’s front two corners. Use the existing screw  
and flat washer (fig. 1). Tighten the screw. After  
tightening, it should be possible to move the deck  
arms up and down.  
4a. Cutting normal length grass:  
Adjust the deck so that the front and rear edge of  
the cover are the same height above the floor. This  
position gives the best ‘Multiclip effect’, i.e. the  
grass is cut up best.  
2. Do not hook the rear part of the deck arms onto  
the deck yet (See “Cutting deck” point 7 below).  
4b. Cutting long grass:  
CUTTING DECK  
Adjust the deck so that the cover’s rear edge is  
higher than the front edge. This position means  
that the deck can release the grass more easily at  
the rear edge.  
1. Place the cutting deck in front of the machine.  
Set the maximum cutting height.

ENGLISH  
5. After setting, tighten the screws properly.  
cutting deck can be folded up:  
1. Set the cutting height setting to the maximum  
cutting height.  
USE  
2. Lift the rear edge of the deck with one hand (fig.  
9).  
CUTTING HEIGHT  
The cutting height can be varied between a number  
of fixed positions, from 30 to 85 mm.  
3. Push up the catch and release the rear edge of the  
deck (fig. 9).  
Item no. 13-2934:  
The cutting height is continuously variable from  
30 to 85 mm.  
4. Repeat the procedure on the other side.  
5. Secure the tensioning arm on the hook.  
6. Force the belt off the machine’s pulley.  
7. Fold up the deck to the vertical position (fig. 10).  
Note: Stated cutting heights apply when the  
machine is on a firm surface.  
When the deck is folded down to working position,  
ensure that the catch drops down into position  
when the rear edge of the deck is lifted up (fig. 4).  
CUTTING TIPS  
For optimum ‘Multiclip effect’, follow these tips:  
- cut frequently.  
CLEANING  
- run the motor at full revs.  
- keep the underside of the cutting deck clean.  
- use sharp blades.  
After each use, the underside of the cutting deck  
should be rinsed off.  
- do not cut wet grass.  
If the grass has dried solid, scrape clean the  
underside.  
- cut twice (with different cutting heights) if  
the grass is long.  
If necessary, paint the underside to prevent  
corrosion.  
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE  
BLADES  
PREPARATIONS  
Use protective gloves when changing  
blades to avoid cutting yourself.  
Unless otherwise stated, all service and  
maintenance must be carried out on a stationary  
machine when the motor is not running.  
Ensure that the blades are always sharp. This  
produces the best cutting results.  
Prevent the machine from rolling by  
always applying the parking brake.  
Always check the blades after a collision. If the  
blade system has been damaged, defective parts  
should be replaced.  
Prevent unintentional starting of the  
motor by always stopping the motor,  
disconnecting the spark plug cable  
from the spark plug and earthing it.  
Disconnect the negative cable from the  
battery.  
Always use original spare parts. Non-  
original spare parts can entail a risk of  
injury, even if they fit the machine.  
Install the blades according to fig. 11  
where the blade edge is marked. The folded-up  
edge of the blade should be positioned inwards  
towards the blade mount.  
LUBRICATION  
The deck arms are equipped with grease nipples  
(fig. 8).  
The cutting system comprises two blade bars with  
two replaceable blades Y (fig. 12). When replacing  
blades, both should be replaced to avoid  
imbalance.  
Lubricate these after every 25 hours of operation  
(or at least once per season) with universal grease.  
MAINTENANCE TIPS  
Install the new blades. Tighten screws V and W  
properly. Tightening torque: V - 9.8 Nm, W - 24  
To make cleaning and maintenance easier, the

Nm.  
In the event of a powerful collision, the blades may  
be bent out. Undo the locking nut X and fold back  
the blade. Install a new original break bolt V.  
Tighten the locking nuts X and Z.  
POSITIVE DRIVE BELT  
Both blades are powered inside the deck by a  
positive drive belt.  
If one of the blades has struck a solid object (e.g. a  
stone), the belt tension may be altered. This can  
lead to the positive drive belt ‘over-meshing’  
which, in the long term, can damage the blades.  
Following a powerful collision, always  
check that both blades are at right-  
angles to each other (fig. 11).  
The working areas of the blades overlap each  
other. If the blades’ position in relation to each  
other has been altered, there is a considerable risk  
of the blades striking each other. This can entail  
serious damage to the cutting deck.  
If this is the case, take the machine and cutting  
deck to a service workshop for repair and  
inspection.
