HYDRAULIC SAFETY 

.All hydraulic system servicing should be done by a qualified 

technician. 

.Relieve all pressure in the system before disconnecting any 

hoses. 

.Keep body and hands away from pin holes that may eject 

hydraulic fluid under high pressure. 

.Make sure all hydraulic connections are tight and hoses in 

good condition. 

High pressure hydraulic fluid may have sufficient force to 
penetrate skin and cause serious injury. Seek medical attention 
immediately. Treatment must be done a doctor. 

Please note the Great Dane Surfer is shipped completely 
assembled and has been tested at the factory. 

After you have removed all crating and packaging materials, 
carefully follow these steps: 
.Remove battery from machine, if one is installed and service 

observing precautions in Section on Battery Servicing. 

.Check hydraulic fluid level. Should be about 5 inches below 

the top of the oil filler pipe. Use 10W-30 engine oil during 
initial operating period. 

.Check engine oil for proper level. 
.Check rear wheel tire pressure. Use high pressures up to 24 

psi for mowing on rough ground, and down to 14 psi for fairly 
smooth terrain. Note, front caster wheel tires must be foam 
filled and thus never require air servicing. 

.Remove belt cover and check all belt tension. .Lubricate all 
moving parts (see Maintenance 

Check List). 

.Locate rear drive wheel mounting bracket for general height of 

cut in your region. 

.Fill fuel tank with regular, 80 octane gasoline. .Open shut-off 
valve under gas tank. 

You are now ready for initial running of the machine. 

.Set the rear of the machine on jack stands or blocks to raise 

rear wheels off of ground and block caster wheels. 

.Start engine. Let run for several minutes to warm hydraulic 

fluid. 

.Observe that wheels rotate in the correct direction when 

control levers are moved back and forth. 

.If wheels do not stop rotating when controls are.~ in neutral, adjust 

the NEUTRAL stop wing bolts at the rear of the power unit, 

between the two hydro pumps. 

.Engage cutter blade clutch. Be sure area is clear 

of debris. Run blades for several minutes. 

.Shut off engine and remove jack stands. 

Remove start key. 

.Check all belts for proper tension. 

.Test run the machine in a level area. If machine 

drifts to the right or left when both control levers 
are full forward, adjust swivel nuts at the top of 
control rods to change length of control rod so 

that machine travels in a straight line. Please remember, the 
neutral adjustment and straight 

drive adjustments will need to be repeated after several hours of 
operation. 

.Adjust safe maximum drive speed by unlocking 

and adjusting the stationary bar to limit amount 

of forward movement of the control levers. 
Secure the stationary bar firmly by tightening the ~ lever on the left 

side of bar. 

Read and understand the Safety Guidelines before attempting to 

operate. 

.Check fuel tank 
.Check engine oil level 
.Open fuel valve 
.Adjust stationary bar half way back and tighten left side lever 

for moderate mowing speed 

.Travel control levers must be in neutral 
.Electric blade clutch switch must be OFF 
.Stand on platform 
.Set throttle and choke as required 

.Turn key switch ON and pull start or electric start .Wide open 
throttle 

.Engage cutter blade switch 
.Grasp stationary bar with both hands 

.Push both levers forward smoothly and evenly to go straight 

ahead 

.To make turns, pull same side control lever back .To stop, 
return both levers to neutral 
.To reverse, pull both levers back 
.Apply parking brake when leaving machine. Do not park on 

slopes 

.To hand push the machine, open dump valve levers about one 

full turn.
