8. Maintenance

Check and clean GARDENA R40Li regularly and replace worn parts if necessary to improve operating reliability and to ensure a longer service life. See 8.5 Cleaning for more details on cleaning.

When R40Li is first used, the blade disc and blades should be inspected once a week. If the amount of wear during this period has been low, the inspection interval can be increased.

It is important that the blade disc rotates easily. The edges of the blades should not be damaged. The product life of the blades varies immensely and depends for instance on:

Operating time and size of the working area.

Type of grass.

Type of soil.

The presence of objects such as cones, windfalls, toys, tools, stones, roots and the like.

The normal life is 2 to 4 months when used in areas more than 300 m2 in size and longer for smaller areas. See 8.6 Replacing the blades for how on page 53 to replace the blades.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Working with dull blades gives a poorer mowing result. The edges of the grass are not cut clean and more energy is needed resulting in R40Li not mowing such a large area.
