Maintenance

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 INFORMATION

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.

Removing of the machine hoods

Engine cover

The engine becomes accessible for service when the engine cover is opened.

Fold the seat forward, loosen the snap lock under the seat and fold the cover backwards.

Front cover

Release the clip on the front hood and lift off the fender.

Right-hand fender

Remove the accelerator knob (1), screws (2 and 3), and remove the cover.

2 1 2

Left-hand fender

Loosen the screws holding the wing cover and lift off the cover.

Checking and adjusting the steering wires

The steering is controlled by means of wires.

These can in time become slack, which implies that the adjustment of the steering becomes altered.

Check and adjust the steering as follows:

•Remove the frame plate by loosening the two screws.

•Check the tension of the steering wires by squeezing them together by the arrows as illustrated. It should be possible to push them together so that the distance between them is half as much, without using unnecessary force.
