14.2 Cleaning the machine
●
●
●
Remove the ignition key and keep it in a
safe place.
●
●
First, remove accumulated clipping
deposits in the mowing deck housing
using a stick.
●
Clean the underside of the mowing
deck with water and a brush.
●
When cleaning the upper side of the
mowing deck, ensure that the V-belt
does not get wet – never spray water
into the openings in the covers.
●
Remove grass residues from the
mowing deck, the engine compartment
and the gearbox. Clean the cooling ribs
of the engine and gearbox.
●
Clean the mowing blades with water
and a brush – under no circumstances
should you hit the mowing blades
(e.g. with a hammer) to loosen dirt.
14.3 Opening the engine hood
Note
During the inspection by the
specialist dealer, the braking
function is checked and, if
necessary, the brakes are serviced.
Furthermore, all required
maintenance operations on the
gearbox are carried out.
Avoid damage to the machine!
Never spray water (high-pressure
cleaner) onto engine components,
seals, electrical components
(battery, wiring harness, etc.) and
bearing points. This may result in
damage and expensive repairs.
Do not use aggressive cleaning
agents. These cleaners can
damage plastics and metals,
impairing the safe operation of your
STIHL machine. If you are unable
to remove the dirt with water using
a brush or a cloth, STIHL
recommends the use of a special
cleaner (e.g. STIHL special
cleaner).
Always remove the mowing deck
for cleaning and maintenance
operations.
Risk of injury!
Switch off the engine and allow it to
cool down for a few minutes before
opening the engine hood.
The engine should be warm to the
touch.
