15. Maintenance

Have maintenance and repair tasks that are not de-
scribed in this operating manual, carried out by a
specialist workshop. Use only original spare parts.
1 Check the product for obvious defects such as
loose, worn or damaged parts before each use.
2 Check that the screws in the cutter bar are tight.
3 Check the covers and protective devices for dam-
age and correct seating. Replace them if neces-
sary.
4 You can smooth out slight nicks on the cutting
teeth yourself. To do this, draw an oil stone along
the cutting edges. Only sharp cutting teeth provide
a good cutting performance.
