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.

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. IMPORTANT INFORMATION Do not drive down slopes with the unit raised.

This is what you do

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. Remove obstacles such as stones, branches, etc. Mow upwards and downwards, not sideways.
Use hearing protection to minimise the risk of hearing impairment. Wear approved protective glasses or full-face visor during assembly and when operating. Do not use the machine on ground that slopes more than 10. 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. Rider 11: 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.
Never wear loose tting clothes that can catch 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 rst aid equipment close at hand when using the machine.
Take extra care if any attachments are tted that can change the stability of the machine. 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. Follow the manufacturers recommendations regarding wheel weights or counterbalance weights to increase machine stability. IMPORTANT INFORMATION Wheel weights tted on the rear wheels are recommended when driving on slopes for safer steering and improved manoeuvrability. Consult your dealer concerning the use of wheel weights if you are unsure. Wheel weights can not be used on AWD-machines. Use counterweights. Petrol and petrol fumes are poisonous and extremely ammable. Be especially careful when handling petrol, as carelessness can result in personal injury or re. Only store fuel in containers approved for the purpose. Never remove the fuel cap and ll the petrol tank while the engine is running. Allow the engine to cool before refuelling. Do not smoke. Do not ll petrol in the vicinity of sparks or naked ames. Handle oil, oil lters, 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 ngers. WARNING! The engine and the exhaust system become very hot during operation. Risk of burn injuries if touched. Never ll the fuel tank indoors.

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 manoeuvring of the machine. Never allow children to operate the machine.
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 overow. Avoid overlling. 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. 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.
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.
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, contact a doctor immediately.

PRESENTATION

Presentation

Congratulations on your choice of an excellent quality product that will give you great pleasure for many years. Five models equipped with engines from Briggs & Stratton are described in this operators manual. Rider 11 and Rider 11C have an inline gearbox with 5 forward gears and reverse.

Clutch pedal

The clutch pedal disengages the engine and stops propulsion.
The blade drive is not affected by the clutch pedal.
Brake pedal / Parking brake
On Rider 13 C, Rider 13 AWD and Rider 15 C transmission is by means of a variable speed hydrostatic gearbox. Rider 13 AWD is equipped with all wheel drive. The brake pedal activates a disc brake that is located on the gearbox and stops the drive gear. The clutch pedal should also be pressed down when braking to achieve the best braking effect.
Rider 13, 13 AWD and 15 C. Rider 11 and Rider 11 C
Throttle and choke controls
The throttle control regulates the engine speed, and thereby also the rotation speed of the blades. The control is also used to activate the choke. When the choke is engaged a richer fuel and air mixture is fed to the engine, which facilitates starting in the cold.

Speed limiter

The speed of the machine is steplessly regulated with two pedals. Pedal (1) is used to drive forwards, and pedal (2) to drive backwards. Rider 11 C, 13 C, 13 AWD and 15 C have a 3-blade Combiunit
The Combi-unit, equipped with a BioClip-plug, nely chops the cuttings to fertiliser. Without the BioClip-plug the unit works in the same way as a rear ejection unit. WARNING! Make sure that branches do not obstruct the pedals when mowing under bushes. Otherwise there is a risk you may lose control.
Lifting lever for the cutting unit
The lift lever is used to set the cutting unit in transport or mowing position. If the lever is pulled backwards the unit is raised and the blades automatically stop rotating (transport position).

Parking brake

The parking brake is applied as follows:
Push down the brake pedal. Press in the lock button on the steering column. Release the parking brake pedal while keeping the button pressed in.

If the lock button is pressed in and the lever is moved forwards the unit will be lowered and the blades will automatically start to rotate (mowing position).
The parking brake lock disengages automatically when the brake pedal is pressed.

Cutting unit

Rider 11 has a cutting unit with rear ejection, i.e. clippings are thrown behind the cutting unit.
The lever can also be used to temporarily regulate the cutting height, e.g. for a small mound in the lawn.

14 English

Cutting height adjustment lever
The cutting height can be adjusted to 7 different positions with the cutting height lever. Combi-unit 30-80 mm (1,2 - 3,1)

Fuelling

The engine runs on unleaded petrol with a minimum octane rating of 85 (not mixed with oil). We recommend the use of biodegradable alkylate petrol. Do not use petrol that contains methanol. Do not ll the tank completely, leave an expansion area of at least 2.5 cm (1).
The seat has a jointed attachment on the front edge and can be tipped forward. The seat can also be adjusted lengthways. Loosen the handles under the seat and adjust it forwards or backwards to the desired position. WARNING! Petrol is highly inammable. Exercise care and refuel outdoors (see safety instructions).
IMPORTANT! Do not use the fuel tank as a support area.

Driving

Before starting
IMPORTANT! The air intake grille in the engine cover behind the drivers seat must not be blocked by, for example, clothing, leaves, grass or dirt. Impaired cooling of the engine. Risk of major engine damage. Rider 11 and Rider 11 C have the brake pedal and release button on the right-hand side. Rider 13 AWD The engine can not be started if the parking brake is not pressed down. 4 Rider 11 and Rider 11 C Put the gear shift lever in the N position (neutral).
Read the safety instructions and information concerning the placement of controls and functions before starting. Perform daily maintenance before starting as set out in the Maintenance schedule. Adjust the seat to the required position.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Do not press down the reversing block button on the lever when neutral position is engaged. Otherwise this will activate the start lock function. With a cold engine: 5 Move the throttle to position 3 (choke position). In this position the engine is fed with a richer mixture, which means the engine is easier to start.

3 For Rider 11 and Rider 11 C Disengage the engine and select the required gear. IMPORTANT INFORMATION The life span of the drive belts is increased signicantly if the engine runs at a low speed when the blades are engaged. Therefore apply full throttle rst when the cutting unit has been moved to the mowing position.

Cutting tips

The lock button on the gear shift lever must be held in to engage reverse gear. - Gears 1-4 are used for mowing - Gears 4-5 are used for transporting Starting can take place independent of which gear is engaged. IMPORTANT! Gear changes between forward gears must not be made while the machine is moving. The engine must be disengaged during each gear change. Stop the machine before changing between forward and reverse gears, otherwise this may result in damage to the gearbox. Never use force to engage a gear. If a gear does not engage immediately, release the clutch pedal and press it down again. Now try to engage the gear again. 4 Select the required cutting height (1-7) with the cutting height lever.
WARNING! Clear the lawn from stones and other objects which can be thrown out by the blades.
Localise and mark stones and other xed objects to avoid collision. Start with a high cutting height and reduce down until the required mowing results are obtained. The mowing results are best with a high engine speed (fast rotating blades) and low driving speed (slow moving machine). If the grass is not too high and thick, the driving speed can be increased without noticeably depreciating the mowing result. The best lawns are achieved if the grass is cut often. Mowing becomes more uniform and the grass cuttings become more evenly distributed over the surface. The total time consumption is not greater since it is possible to select a higher driving speed without inferior mowing results. Avoid mowing a wet lawn. The mowing results are inferior since the wheels sink down into the soft lawn. Hose down the cutting unit with water underneath each time it is used. The cutting unit should then be put in the service position. When the BioClip function is used, it is very important that the mowing interval is not too long. WARNING! Do not use the machine on ground that slopes more than 10. Mow slopes upwards and downwards, never across. Avoid sudden changes in direction.
It is important that the air pressure in both front wheels is equal, 60 kPa / 8.5 PSI, to produce an even cutting height. 5 Press in the lock button on the lifting lever and lower the cutting unit.

Cleaning
Clean the machine directly after use. It is much easier to wash off grass cuttings before they dry.

Front cover Rider 11

Remove the screws holding the front cover (3) and lift off the cover.
Oily dirt can be removed using a cold degreasing agent. Spray on a thin layer. Rinse at normal water pressure. Do not direct the jet towards electrical components or bearings. Do not rinse hot surfaces such as the engine and exhaust system. It is recommended that you start the engine and run the mower for a short period after cleaning, so that any remaining water is blown off. Lubricate the machine if necessary after cleaning. Carry out extra lubrication when the bearings have been exposed to a degreaser or a water jet. IMPORTANT! Avoid using a high pressure washer or a steam cleaner. There is a major risk of water penetrating into bearings and electrical connections. Corrosion attack can result, which will lead to running problems. Cleaning additives generally aggravate the damage.

Front cover Rider 11 C, Rider 13 C, Rider 13 AWD and Rider 15 C
Release the clip on the front hood and lift off the fender.

Right-hand fender

Remove the screws holding the wing cover (2 and 3). The knob (1) should also be removed on Rider 13 C, Rider 13 AWD and Rider 15 C.

The engine becomes accessible for service when the engine cover is opened. Fold the seat forward, loosen the rubber strap under seat and fold the cover backwards.

Left-hand fender

Remove the screws holding the wing cover (2) and lift off the cover.
Checking and adjusting the steering wires
The steering is controlled by means of wires. These can in time become slack, which implies that the adjustment of the steering becomes altered. Check and adjust the steering as follows: 1 Remove the frame plate by loosening the screws (2) and lift the frame plate by the rear edge.
Checking the brake Rider 11 and Rider 11 C
The brake is a disc brake and is located on the gearbox. Check that the brake is adjusted correctly by measuring the distance between the brake lever and front edge of the cut-out on the chassis. The distance should be 0-1 mm (0-0.040') when the brake is not actuated.
Check the tension of the steering wires by squeezing them together by the arrows as illustrated. It should be possible to push them together so that the distance between them is half as much, without using unnecessary force.
Adjusting the brake Rider 11 and Rider 11 C
Loosen the locking nuts (1). Tension the cable with the adjuster screw (2) so that the distance between the brake lever and front edge of the cut-out on the chassis is 1 mm (0.040). Tighten the locking nuts (1) after adjustment.
If necessary, the wires can be adjusted by tightening the adjuster nuts on each side of the steering collar. Do not over tighten the cables; they should only be drawn in towards the steering collar.
Checking and adjusting the brake on Rider 13 C and Rider 15 C
Check that the brake is correctly adjusted by placing the machine on a slight downhill slope with the clutch disengaged and activating the brake. When the machine does not stand still, the brake should be adjusted according to the following.

Hold the cable, for example using an adjustable wrench, so that it does not twist. If you only tension one side the steering wheels centre position may change. Check the wire tension on completion of the adjustment as per item 2. Loosen the locking nuts (1). Tension the cable using the adjuster screw (2) until the play in the cable is taken up. Tighten the locking nuts (1). The brake should be checked again after adjustment

22 English

WARNING! A poorly adjusted brake can result in reduced braking ability.
Pull the choke wire casing to the far right and tighten the clamping screw.
Adjusting the parking brake Rider 13 AWD
Check that the parking brake is adjusted correctly by placing the machine on a slope with the front and rear axles disengaged. Apply and lock the parking brake. When the machine does not stand still, the parking brake should be adjusted according to the following. 1 Remove the left-hand wing cover. 3 Pull back the throttle to the full throttle position and check that the choke is no longer actuated.
Loosen the locking nuts (1).

Replacing the air lter

If the engine seems to lack power or does not run smoothly this may be because the air lter is clogged. It is therefore important to replace the air lter at regular intervals (see Maintenance/Maintenance Schedule for the correct service interval). Replace the air lter as follows: Tension the cable using the adjuster screw (2) until the play in the cable is taken up. Tighten the locking nuts (1). The brake should be checked again after adjustment Assemble the left-hand wing cover. WARNING! A poorly adjusted parking brake can result in reduced braking ability. Open the engine cover. Pull up the handle on the air lter cover, unhook and turn towards the engine.
Adjusting the throttle wire
The throttle cable may need to be adjusted, if the engine does not respond as it should when accelerating, if it produces black smoke or maximum revs are not reached. 1 Release the clamping screw that secures the wire casing and set the choke control to maximum choke.
Remove the air lter cover. Lift out the air lter cartridge from the fan housing.

Let the oil run out into the container. Fit the drain plug and tighten it. Fill with oil up to the FULL mark on the dipstick The oil is topped up through the hole the dipstick sits in. See Checking the engines oil level for lling instructions. The engine holds 1.5 litres (1.6 USqt) when the oil lter is not replaced and 1.7 litres (1.8 USqt) of oil when the oil lter is replaced.
The dipstick should be completely screwed down Pull the dipstick out again and read the oil level. The oil level should be between the markings on the dipstick. If the level is approaching the ADD mark, top up the oil to the FULL mark on the dipstick. 6
Run the engine warm, then check that there is no leakage from the oil plug.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Used engine oil is a health hazard and must not be disposed of on the ground or in nature; it should always be disposed of at a workshop or appropriate disposal location.
Avoid skin contact; wash with soap and water in case of spills.
The oil is topped up through the hole the dipstick sits in. Fill the oil slowly. Tighten the dipstick correctly before starting the engine. Start and run the engine at idling speed for approx. 30 seconds. Turn off the engine. Wait 30 seconds and check the oil level. If necessary ll so that the oil comes up to the FULL mark on the dipstick. First and foremost use synthetic engine oil class SJ-CF 5W/ 30 or 10W/30 for all temperature ranges. Mineral oil SAE30, class SFCC can be used at temperatures > +5 C (40 F) Do not mix different types of oil.

Replacing the engine oil

The engine oil should be changed the rst time after 5 hours running time. It should then be changed after every 50 hours of running time. When operating with a heavy load or at high ambient temperatures, replace every 25 hours. WARNING! Engine oil can be very hot if it is drained directly after stopping the engine. Allow the engine to cool somewhat rst.
Place a container underneath the engines left oil drain plug.

Lift off the wheel. Lubricate the stub axle with molybdenum disulphide grease*. Assemble the parts in the reverse order.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION Check that the circlip enters the groove correctly. *Grease from well-known brand names (petrochemical companies, etc.) usually maintains a good quality. The most important property is that the grease provides good protection against corrosion. The oil and lter should be changed by an authorised service representative, as described in the Workshop Manual. Work on the system entails particular demands on cleanliness and the system must be vented before the machine is used.

General lubrication

All joints and bearings are lubricated using molybdenum disulphide grease during manufacture. Continue to lubricate using the same type of grease *. Lubricate the steering and control wires using engine oil. Carry out this lubrication regularly; with daily use, the machine should be lubricated twice weekly. *Grease from well-known brand names (petrochemical companies, etc.) usually maintains a good quality. The most important property is that the grease provides good protection against corrosion.
Lubricating the belt adjuster
The belt adjuster should be lubricated regularly using good quality molybdenum disulphide grease*. Lubricate using a grease gun, 1 nipple from the right-hand side under the engines lower belt pulley, until grease is forced out.
