7. MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

MAINTENANCE

Note: Regular, careful maintenance is essential for keeping the safety level and original performance of

the machine unchanged in time.

Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the equipment is in safe working condition. Regular mainte-

nance is essential for safety and performance.

Never store the equipment with fuel in the tank inside a building where vapour may reach a flame or a spark

or a source of extreme heat.

Allow the engine to cool before storing in an enclosed space.

To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine; exhaust silencer, battery compartment and fuel storage area free of

grass, leaves, or excessive grease. Do not leave containers with grass cuttings in rooms.

Replace worn or damaged parts for safety reasons; do not use the equipment with worn or damaged parts.

Parts are to be replaced and not repaired. Use genuine spare parts (blades should always bear the symbol).

Parts that are not of the same quality can damage the equipment and be dangerous for your safety.

If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be done outdoors and when the engine is cool.

Wear strong work gloves when removing and reassembling the blade.

Check the blade‘s balance after sharpening.

Check the self-closing guard and grass-catcher frequently for wear and deterioration.

Whenever the machine is to be handled, transported or tilted you must:

– wear strong working gloves;

– grasp the machine at the points that offer a safe grip, taking account of the weight and its distribution

CLEANING

Carefully clean the machines with water after each cut; remove the grass debris and mud accumulated inside

the chassis to avoid their drying and thus making the next start-up difficult.

The paintwork on the inside of the chassis may peel off in time due to the abrasive action of the cut grass; in

this case, intervene promptly by touching up the paintwork using a rustproof paint to prevent the formation of

rust that would lead to corrosion of the metal.

Remove the transmission casing by removing the screws and clean around the transmission and drive belts

with a brush or compressed air once or twice a year.

Once every season, the drive wheels should be cleaned internally. Remove both wheels. Clean the gear wheel

and the wheel gear rim of grass and dirt using a brush or air compressor.
