MAINTENANCE & STORAGE
WARNING
Improper maintenance & storage of the machine may void your warranty. Keep the machine clean
for better and safer performance.
MAINTENANCE
Before each use, check all nuts & bolts to be sure they are sufficiently tightened.
Keep all moving parts lightly greased, using Multi-purpose grease.
Check, replace or top up the gearbox lubricant after every 30 hours of operation or at least once
a year. We recommend MOBILUX EP 023. 90g will fill an empty gearbox.
Ensure the breather openings on the motor casing are open and clean from debris. If they are
blocked, the motor could overheat and shut the machine down.
We recommend only manufacturer original parts are used when maintaining this machine.
Failure to do so could invalidate your manufacturer’s warranty.
CAUTION
Any maintenance and repairs carried out, to any electronic component must be undertaken by a
qualified technician.
CLEANING
Keep your machine clean.
Before cleaning, ensure it is unplugged from the mains.
Thoroughly clean the machine at the end of each day’s operation.
Clean the underside of the housing around the tines, protective shield and fender with a
scrubbing brush, and brush or soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water mixture. Never
splash with water!
To remove soil and debris from the tines and transmission, use a stiff brush or a dampened
cloth.
Clean the air vents, and remove any remaining grass or dirt.
Once cleaned, wipe the tine and shaft dry and apply a light coat of oil.
CAUTION
Clean the tool after each use. Failure to carry out proper cleaning can result in damage to the
appliance or cause it to malfunction.
WARNING
Injury may occur when working on the tines. Wear protective gloves.
CAUTION
Wipe off any external material on the motor cover. Do not use petrol, turpentine, lacquer or paint
thinner, dry cleaning fluids or similar products. The use of chemical products or solvents may affect
