7.1. MAINTENANCE AFTER USAGE
Carry out the following maintenance work once
you finish your task to guarantee that the machine
functions correctly next time.
7.1.1. GENERAL CHECKS
Check the cable and ensure that the cable has neither
worn off or has been cut.
7.1.2. CLEANING
Attention! Always clean the machine after use.
Not cleaning the machine adequately will result
in damages to the machine and the machine will
work less. Wherever possible, clean the machine
immediately after working with it.
Maintain your machine clean and in good conditions.
Do not clean the engine with water. The electric
engine could stop functioning.
Clean the covers of the machine with a damp cloth.
Do not use petrol, detergents, water or any other liquid
to clean the machine.
Use a brush to clean the blade. Never use petrol,
detergents, water or any other liquid to clean the
blades.
7.1.3. CONTROL OF THE ELECTRIC CABLE
Inspect the cable for possible damages. If the cable
is not in a good condition, take the machine to your
nearest service agent.
Do not use the machine if the cable is damaged.
7.1.4. VENTILATION ENGINE CONDUCTS
Eliminate any dirt in the ventilation conducts so
as not damage the engine and avoid the machine
overheating and even burning.
7.2. BLADE MAINTENANCE
When checking the blade, remember that
for a few moments after switching the
machine off, the blade will carry on moving.
The blades of this machine are high quality metal
and do not need to be filed. If accidentally, the blade
catches on a metallic surface, touches a rock or any
other hard object, a small breakage could occur.
If this small breakage does not impede the blades
functioning correctly, then you can carry on using the
machine. If, on the other hand, the machine does not
work properly, then take the machine to your nearest
after sales dealer.
Blade sharpening must be carried out by the service
dealer. Do not sharpen the blade yourself. The blade
must be sharpened guaranteeing the cutting angle
and blade equilibrium. Blade sharpening carried out
by a non expert will result in the machine vibrating
and will eventually cause damages to the machine
and usage problems to the end user.
Lubricate the blades regularly with oil.
