cleaned. In particular, all grass residues must be removed because the moisture these
contain leads to damage in the long term.
Clean the device with water as follows.
• Place the hose connection piece onto the water connection (6) of the mower and
open the tap.
• Start the mower and switch off again after about 30 seconds. The rotating blade bar
throws the water onto the bottom of the mower and thus cleans it.
• Turn off he tap and remove the hose connection.
• Clean the top with a cloth (do not use any sharp objects).
Note: Dirt and grass is easiest to remove immediately after you have finished mowing
the grass. Dried on grass and dirt can result in poorer mowing performance. Check
that the grass chute is free of any residual grass. Remove any such residue.
Never clean the lawn mower with a water jet or high-pressure cleaner. The engine
must remain dry.
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as cold cleaner or petroleum ether. Never
drive close to an edge or a ditch for the purpose of cleaning (e.g. the frame of) the ride-
on mower.
In order to prevent fire hazards, keep the engine, cooling ribs, battery compartment,
area around the fuel tank and exhaust free from grass, leaves or escaping oil (or
grease). Always clean the grass catcher box.
Maintenance operations:
Only maintenance operations described in this instruction manual may be carried out.
Have all other work performed by a specialist dealer. If you do not have the necessary
expertise or auxiliary equipment, please always contact a specialist dealer. We
recommend: Have maintenance work and repairs completed by specialist dealers only.
The ride-on mower and all attachments should be inspected once annually by a
specialist dealer. Always keep warning and information stickers clean and readable.
Damaged or missing stickers must be replaced by new, original plates. If a component
is replaced with a new component, ensure that the new component is provided with
the same stickers.
For safety reasons, fuel-carrying components (fuel line, fuel cock, fuel tank, tank cap,
connections, etc.) must be checked regularly for damage and leaks and replaced by a
technician if necessary.
The machine is equipped with numerous safety devices. These devices must not be
removed or modified (bypassed, etc.) and must be checked at regular intervals.
Operations on the safety devices must only be carried out by a technician.
Ensure that all nuts, pins and screws, especially the blade fastening screw, are
securely tightened, so that the machine is in a safe operating condition. For safety
reasons, worn or damaged parts must be replaced immediately.
Check the grass catcher unit (e.g. grass catcher box, discharge chute) regularly for
wear, damage or loss of functionality.
Particular care is required when working under the machine, due to the weight of the
ride-on mower.
