MAINTENANCE &
STORAGE
IMPORTANT - Regular, careful
maintenance is essential for keeping the
safety level & original performance of the
machine unchanged over time.
1. Keep all nuts, bolts & screws tight to be
sure the equipment is in safe working
condition. Regular maintenance is
essential for safety and performance.
2. Do not use the equipment with worn or
damaged parts, this can be
dangerous. Parts are to be replaced
and not repaired. Use genuine spare
parts. Parts that are not of the same
quality can damage the equipment
and create safety hazards.
3. Wear strong work gloves when
removing and reassembling the blade.
4. Check the blade's balance after
sharpening.
5. Check the grass flap and grass
collector frequently for wear and
deterioration.
6. 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
blades, the mower's weight and its
distribution
SERVICE INTERVALS
Before and after each mowing session,
check that the blade, its attachment bolts
and driveshaft are not damaged or
excessively worn.
After every 25 hours or once a year
minimum before winter lay-up, visit your
local approved service dealer to sharpen
& balance the blade. Replace worn or
damaged blades.
CLEANING
Always Remove the battery & safety key
from the machine when cleaning.
Carefully clean the underside of the deck
with a stiff brush after each cut; remove
the grass debris & mud accumulated
inside the deck to prevent it drying. Do not
use water on any part of the main
machine!
GRASS COLLECTOR CLEANING
Pores in the grassbox can become filled
with dirt & dust during use & will collect less
grass. To prevent this, regularly brush or
hose the catcher off with water & let dry
before using.
MOTOR HOUSING CLEANING
Keep the top of the motor housing vents
clear and clean of grass clippings & dust.
This will assist motor air flow and extend the
machine life.

from the machine when storing.
For trouble free service, make sure the
machine is clean & dry before storing.

and winter months.
If storing for an extended period, inspect,
clean and repair the machine if
necessary.
