the belt must be retensioned.

Cleaning
Before cleaning work on the machine, it is vital to switch off the drive and secure it so it
cannot be switched on accidentally or started-up by unauthorised persons.
Disconnect the machine from the mains.
▪ In addition, pull out the plug of the device.
▪ Disengage the universal joint shaft on the tractor.
– Before disengaging, turn the manual throttle to minimum.
▪ Remove the universal joint shaft from the tractor.
Clean the machine regularly to ensure proper operation.
Only wash new machines (during the first 3 months) with a sponge.
▪ The paint is not yet completely set, so cleaning with a high pressure cleaner may
damage the finish.
