7.3 CUTTING MEANS
A badly sharpened cutting means pulls at the grass and
causes the lawn to turn yellow.
Do not touch the cutting means until the key has
been removed and the cutting means is completely sta-
tionary. Bear in mind that, even though the key has been
removed, the cutting means can still move.
All work on the cutting means (disassembly,
sharpening, balancing, repairing, reassembly and/
or replacing) are demanding jobs that require special
skills as well as special tools. For safety reasons, these
jobs are best carried out at a Specialised Centre.
Make sure damaged, misshapen or worn cut-
ting-means are replaced, together with its own screws
in place to preserve balance.
IMPORTANT Always use original cutting devices with the
code shown in the "Technical Data" table.
Given product evolution, the cutting means listed in the
"Technical Data" table may be replaced in time with others
having similar interchangeable and operating safety features.
