Maintenance / Storage
If you want to remove soil and dirt from the gearbox and blades, use a stiff brush or a dampened cloth. Clean the
holes on the motor cover and remove all grass and dirt remains. After cleaning the blades and shaft, immediately
wipe them dry and apply a thin layer of oil to prevent corrosion.
Installing and removing the blades
For this task, we recommend that you contact an authorised service centre.
Worn out blades provide only a low level of performance and overload the motor.
Check the blades before each use. Sharpen or replace the blade if necessary. For support, contact an authorised
service centre.
WARNING: Injuries may occur when working on the blades. Use protective gloves.
To remove the blade from the shaft (Fig. 7), screw out the hex bolt M8 x 40 from the shaft. Take the blades off the
shaft. To install the blades, proceed in reverse order.
