Cleaning (U)
USE GLOVES
IMPORTANT
It is very important that you keep your
lawnmower clean. Grass clippings left in
any of the air intakes or under the deck
could become a potential fire hazard.
1. Remove grass from under the deck with a
piece of wood or similar.
2. Remove the blade, see Figure T, to gain
access to the fan and clean with a soft
brush.
3. Remove grass clippings from:
all air intakes
wheels and height adjustment
levers
grassbox
grassbox lid and both sides of
grassbox full indicator
4. Clean around the switch actuator on the
grassbox (V1).
5. Wipe over the surface of your lawnmower
with a dry cloth.
IMPORTANT
Never use water for cleaning your
lawnmower. Do not clean with chemicals,
including petrol, or solvents - some can
destroy critical plastic parts.
At the End of the Mowing Season
1. Replace blade, bolts, nuts or screws, if
necessary.
2. Clean your lawnmower thoroughly.
3. Ask your local Service Centre to clean the
air filter thoroughly and carry out any service
or repairs required.
4. Make sure that the electric cable is coiled
properly.
