5.4 CLEANING AND STORAGE
Cleaning
After each mowing, clean the outside of the lawn-tractor, empty the grass-catcher
and shake it to remove residual grass and earth.
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 hoze-nozzles or harsh detergents for cleaning the
body and engine!
Washing the inside of the cutting deck
The lawn-tractor has to be put on firm ground with the stone-guard or grass-cat-
cher in position. Washing the inside of the cutting deck and the collector channel
is done by connecting a water hose to each of the fittings (1) one at a time, and
running water through for a few minutes each, with:
– the operator seated,
– the engine running,
– the gear in neutral,
– the parking brake on,
– the blades engaged.
When washing, the cutting deck should
be in the fully lowered position.
Take off the grass-catcher, empty and
rinse it, and then put it in a position to
assist quick drying.
