8. MAINTENANCE

Chassis

Clean the underside of the chassis. Brush or wipe with a damp cloth.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not use running water when cleaning.

Wheels

Clean around the front and rear wheels and around the front wheel suspension.

Body

Use a damp, soft sponge or cloth to clean the body. If the body is very dirty it may be necessary to use a soap solution or washing-up liquid.

Take particular care to keep the two ultrasonic sensors clean from dirt and dust at all times. When the sensors are covered with dirt (i.e. the sensors are not working) run the mower at a much lower speed than normal to avoid hard impacts. The low speed might then mean that the mower will not have time to cut all of the intended area.

8.6 Replacing the blades

WARNING

Always use originalblades and screws when replacing.

Only replacing the blades and reusing the screw can result in the screw wearing during mowing and shearing off. The blades can then be thrown out and cause serious injury.

There are five blades on Automower® 260 ACX that are screwed into the blade disc. The blades have four edges to ensure a longer service life. Two of the edges are equally worn as the blade disc rotates alternately to the left and alternately to the right. When the edges (1 and 2) have become dull, loosen the screw and turn the knife over so that edges 3 and 4 are facing outwards.

All five blades and screws must be replaced at the same time to obtain a balanced mowing system.

There are several blade variants with different characteristics to choose from as accessories. Contact your dealer for further information.
