General

Service
Low season is the most suitable time to perform a service or
overhaul of the machine in order to ensure high function
safety during high season.
When ordering spare parts state your machine's purchase
year, model, type, and serial number.
Always use genuine parts.
An annual check-up by an authorised servicing dealer is a
good way to ensure that your ride-on mower performs at its
best the following season.

Cleaning

Clean the machine directly after use. It is much easier to wash
off grass cuttings before they dry.
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.
Checking the engine's cooling air
intake
• Make sure the radiator grille is free of leaves, grass and
dirt.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Cleaning the radiator cell package

Clean the radiator with compressed air. Use compressed air
blown from the engine compartment through the cell package
and back.
• Open the engine cover.
• If necessary, remove the engine cover. For more
information, see 'Removing the ride-on mower covers'.
Cleaning the air filter
If the engine seems to lack power or does not run smoothly
this may be because the air filter is clogged. When driving
with a dirty air filter the engine can suffer from lack of air, so
that it does not meet environmental requirements and the
engine does not provide full power.
Emptying the particle collector
• Squeeze so that the rubber tabs open and the particles
can escape.
Cleaning the filter cover
• Loosen the two fasteners holding the filter cover and
remove it.
• Clean the inside of the lid. It can be washed with soapy
water and blown with compressed air when the lid is
removed.
• Replace the air filter cover, ensure that the particle
collector is facing downwards.
