Underbody and cutting means

WARNING!

 Wear protective gloves when working on the cutting means (

26

and close to it! Use proper tools to remove debris, e.g. a wooden stick! Never 

use your bare hands!

Always use original spare parts for replacement. The cutting means must be 

replaced by an identical type with the reference number SMV 1816211. Do 

not attach any other type of cutting means (

26

)!

The replacement of the cutting means (

26

) should be done by an experienced 

operator! Rework or sharpening blades is not recommended unless it is done 

by a repair service or a similarly qualified specialist!

NOTE:

 We strongly recommend jacking the product when performing inspection 

and work on the cutting means (

26

). Avoid tilting the product in order to prevent 

fuel and oil leakages.

1.  Keep the underbody and cutting means (

26

) clean and free of debris. Remove 

clippings from the discharge chute (

28

). 

2.  Check all nuts and bolts periodically for tightness before the operation. After prolonged 

use, especially in sandy soil conditions, the cutting means (

26

) will become worn 

and lose some of the original shape. The cutting efficiency will be reduced, and the 

cutting means should be replaced. 

3.  Keep the cutting means (

26

) sharp to ensure a good cutting performance. Replace 

a worn or damaged cutting means (

26

) with a new one of the same type or have it 

sharpened by a qualified specialist. 

4.  If jacking the product is not possible, tilt it to the right side so that the fuel tank cap 

(

9a

) side is up. This helps to prevent fuel leakage and harder starting due to flooding 

of the carburettor. 

5.  Loosen the hex bolt (

26e

) anti-clockwise and remove it together with the washer (

26d

and cutting means (

26

) (Fig. 

20

). 

6.  Replace the cutting means (

26

) with a new one of the same type. Secure with washer 

(

26d

) and hex bolt (

26e

). Tighten the hex bolt clockwise with 

40

-

45 

Nm force to 

ensure safe operation of the product (Fig. 

20

). 

DANGER!

 If the cutting means (

26

) are not torqued properly, they could become 

loose and be thrown from the product and seriously hurt or kill the operator 

or bystanders. 

NOTE:

 Replace the cutting means (

26

) after 

50

 hours of mowing, or 

2

 years 

whichever is sooner regardless of condition. If the cutting means (

26

) is cracked 

or damaged, replace it immediately.
