6. Maintenance
IMPORTANT
Regular, careful maintenance is essential for keeping the
safety level and original performance of the machine unchanged in time.
Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the equipment is in safe working
condition. Regular maintenance is essential for safety and performance.
Never store the equipment with fuel in the tank inside a building where vapour may
reach a flame or a spark or a source of extreme heat.
Allow the engine to cool before storing in an enclosed space.
To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine, exhaust silencer, battery compartment
and fuel storage area free of grass, leaves, or excessive grease. Do not leave
containers with grass cuttings in rooms.
For reasons of safety, do not use the equipment with worn or damaged parts. Parts
are to be replaced and not repaired. Use genuine spare parts (blades should always
bear the symbol). Parts that are not of the same quality can damage the equipment
and be dangerous for your safety.
If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be done outdoors and when the engine
is cool.
Wear strong work gloves when removing and reassembling the blade.
Check the blade's balance after sharpening.
Check the self-closing guard and grass-catcher frequently for wear and deterioration.
Whenever the machine is to be handled, transported or tilted you must:
-Wear strong working gloves;
-Grasp the machine at the points that offer a safe grip, taking account of the weight
and its distribution.
Blade
Inspection
Tilt the mower to the right, so the air cleaner side is up. This will help to prevent fuel
leakage and hard starting.
Inspect the blade for damage, cracks and excessive rust or corrosion.
A dull blade can be sharpened, but a blade that is excessively worn, bent, cracked, or
otherwise damaged must be replaced.
Check that the blade bolts are tight.
