Maintenance & Care
33
IMPORTANT -
Routine and accurate
maintenance is essential for maintaining
original machine safety and performance
levels.
Always stop the engine and unplug the spark
plug before doing any repairs or maintenance.
Only use original spare parts: The
use of non-original and/or incorrectly fitted
parts will jeopardize the safety of the machine,
may cause accidents or personal injuries for
which the Manufacturer is under no
circumstance liable or responsible.
1.
Wear strong protective gloves before
cleaning, maintaining or making adjustments
to the lawnmower.
2.
You must remove grass and mud from the
chassis to prevent it from drying. This will
cause problems the next time the lawnmower
is used. For more information on cleaning, go
to page 41.
3.
Paint on internal chassis parts may start to
flake over time due to abrasive action of cut
grass. If this happens, you should touch-up
with rust-proof paint to prevent rusting that
could corrode the metal. You can also use a
light oil or silicone spray to prevent rust.
4.
If you need to access the lower part of the
lawnmower, you must tilt the lawnmower with
the air filter facing up, following the relevant
instructions, making sure that the machine is
stable before performing any interventions. On
side discharge models, remove the discharge
chute (if installed).
5.
Make sure not to drip petrol onto the plastic
parts to prevent damaging them and remove
all traces of spilled petrol immediately. The
warranty will not cover damage to plastic
parts caused by petrol.
6.
Use the water hose attachment to clean the
internal parts of the chassis (only certain
models have this). To perform cleaning,
connect garden hose, adjust the cutting height
to maximum. Start the engine and engage the
blade, standing behind the lawnmower handle.
7.
It is highly recommended to change the
engine oil every 100 hours or 12 months. This
will ensure the machine will function properly
over time. The oil can be discharged at a
specialised servicing centre, or by using a
syringe to suction the oil out through the filler
spout, bearing in mind you may need to repeat
the operation several times in order to
completely empty the engine oil sump.
Remember to re-fill with SAE 30 or 15W40 oil
before using the machine again.
8. It is necessary as part of routine
maintenance to adjust the OPC (Operator
Presence Control) cable tension to ensure the
lawnmower will start correctly.
If there is more than 10mm movement in the
OPC lever before the cable begins to move,
then the OPC cable will require adjustment.
See page 18 for more information on adjusting
the OPC cable.
9. Lubricate the wheel bearings with a suitable
lubricant.
CAUTION -
DO NOT
use a hose pipe or
pressure washer to clean the engine. Water
can damage the engine or contaminate the
fuel system.
