14.6 Mowing blade maintenance
Maintenance interval:
Every 25 operating hours
Maintenance operations:
● Check the mowing blade wear limits.
● Sharpen the mowing blades if
necessary.
If mowing results deteriorate, the
mowing blades should be sharpened.
Checking the mowing blade wear
limits:
● Carefully clean the mowing deck and
mowing blades. (
Ö 14.2)
● Remove the mowing deck. ( Ö 13.1)
Placing the mowing deck in a safe
position for checks:
Lean mowing deck (1) against a wall and
secure against slipping with the foot.
Checking the wear limits:
A = Blade thickness (> 4,5 mm)
B = Blade width (> 49 mm)
Check the blade thickness A and blade
width B at several points using a slide
calliper. If the specified wear limits are
reached or exceeded, the mowing
blade (1) must be replaced.
Risk of injury!
Always wear gloves. If you do not
have the necessary expertise or
auxiliary equipment, please
always
contact a specialist dealer. (VIKING
recommends VIKING specialist
dealers).
VIKING recommends the use of
original VIKING spare parts.
Never touch the mowing blades
before they have come to a
standstill.
Always set down the mowing deck
on a non-slip surface.
Risk of injury!
A worn mowing blade may break off
and cause serious injuries. The
instructions for blade maintenance
must therefore always be observed.
Mowing blades are subject to
differing degrees of wear
depending on the location and
duration of use. If you use the
machine on sandy ground or use it
frequently under dry conditions, the
mowing blade will be subjected to
greater loads and will wear more
quickly than normal.
Caution!
Always
replace the blade
fastening screw and retaining
washer when replacing the mowing
blade.
VIKING recommends removing the
mowing deck if the wear limits need
to be checked.
If a suitable lifting platform is
available, the mowing blade wear
limits can also be checked with the
mowing deck installed.
