Cleaning 

 

  

Engine 

Only clean the engine with a cloth. Do not spray 
with water, as water could enter the ignition and 
fuel system and cause malfunctions. 

  

 

  

 

  

Machine 

Clean thoroughly with water immediately after 
each use. 

Do not expose electric cables and components 
to direct water jets. 

Then lubricate all sliding parts with bio-
lubricating oil or grease with bio-lubricating 
grease. 

 

  

Clean the track running gear of grass and other 
residues. 

Clean the drive sprockets, guide wheels and 
travelling wheels of the crawler track of grass 
and plant debris with a stick or other suitable 
tool. 

 Never use your hands! 

Clean the machine, particularly electrical com-
ponents, fan grille and petrol engine of grass, 
leaves and other objects. 

  

 

  

Clean the flaps at the front and rear of the mow-
ing deck, as well as their suspensions. 

The flaps must move smoothly. 

  Only freely swinging flaps can prevent 

the ejection of cuttings or foreign objects.
