Maintenance And Care
IMPORTANT -
Routine and accurate
maintenance is essential for maintaining
original machine safety and performance
levels.
Always stop the motor and unplug from the
mains power before doing any repairs or
maintenance.
Only use original spare parts: The
use of non-original and/or incorrectly fitted
parts will jeopardize the safety of the machine,
may cause accidents or personal injuries for
which the Manufacturer is under no
circumstance liable or responsible.
1.
Wear strong protective gloves before
cleaning, maintaining or making adjustments
to the lawnmower.
2.
You must remove grass and mud from the
chassis to prevent it from drying. This will
cause problems the next time the lawnmower
is used. For more information on cleaning, go
to page 22.
3.
Paint on internal chassis parts may start to
flake over time due to abrasive action of cut
grass. If this happens, you should touch-up
with rust-proof paint to prevent rusting that
could corrode the metal. You can also use a
light oil or silicone spray to prevent rust.
4.
Lubricate the wheel bearings with a suitable
lubricant.
CAUTION -
DO NOT
use a hose pipe or
pressure washer to clean the motor. Water will
damage the motor.

Blade Maintenance
Check the blade, in order to obtain a good
cut, the blade should always be sharp and
well balanced. At regular intervals, check the
tightness of all nuts, bolts and screws.
If the blade hits an obstacle check for
damage and if the machine vibrates badly
stop the lawnmower and take it to a service
dealer.
It is best if all interventions on the blade are
done at a specialised centre that has the
special tools and equipment.
Only original blades must be used on this
machine. Given product evolution, the blades
may be replaced in time with others having
similar interchangeable and operating safety
features.
• You
MUST
wear gloves to protect your
hands from being cut when working with the
blade.
• The blade is made of pressed steel, in order
to obtain a good cut, sharpen the blade
frequently, typically around every 25 hours of
work.
• Following blade sharpening you must make
sure that the blade is always well balanced.
• To remove the blade, unscrew the bolt,
check the blade carrier and all components,
replace if they are worn or damaged.
