Storage
Before storing away, thoroughly wash the machine removing all traces of grass and
dirt. Great care must be taken when washing with high-pressure hoses, do not hold
the water jet close to the paintwork. Use steam cleaners with caution, be sure to
remove all detergents to avoid any discolouring or damage to paint.
Grease all grease points until fresh grease shows. Store PTO shaft in a dry place.
After Storage
Disassemble the slip clutch and with an emery cloth remove all traces of rust on the
metal clutch plates. Check condition on the friction plates, if there is any sign of over
hearing, wear or cracking, replace with new. Do not attempt to use the machine with
damaged slip clutch plates.
Assemble the clutch and tighten the bolts to achieve a
‘h’
length of 17mm. Do not over
tighten or the clutch will not work.
Check condition of the tyre (where applicable) and then follow the maintenance
procedure covered in the servicing part of this manual. Pay particular attention to the
condition of the guards and blades.
Remember the Multicut 160 and 200 are designed to withstand the most rigorous
conditions and, with a little care and attention, will give many years of trouble free
service.
So as not to invalidate the warranty and to avoid problems, use only genuine parts and
make sure the machine is not driven at a speed in excess of 540rpm on the PTO.
