LEANING AND STORAGE

After each mowing, clean the outside of the machine, empty the grass-catcher

Always empty the grass-catcher and do not leave contai-

ners full of cut grass inside a room.

Clean the plastic parts of the body with a damp sponge using water and deter-
gent, taking care not to wet the engine, the electrical parts or the electronic card
located under the dashboard.

Never use hose-nozzles or harsh detergents for cleaning the

body and engine!

For washing the inside of the cutting deck and the collector channel the machine
must be on firm ground with:

– the grass-catcher or stone-guard fitted;
– the operator seated;
– the engine running;
– the transmission in neutral;
– the parking brake engaged;
– the blades engaged.

Connect a water hose to each of the pipe
fittings (1) one at a time, and running
