► Grass catcher:
- remove the grass catcher from the mower, wash it and allow it to dry naturally.
► Plastic parts on the mower:
- clean using a sponge and soapy water
► Mowing deck:
- wash the inside including the part of the ejection chute
- slide a hose of a suitable diameter on to the fittings on the mowing deck cover. Start the engine, engage the
mowing deck and flush out the mowing deck with a current of water for 10 minutes.
This flushing procedure needs to be performed at the end of every mowing session.
Avoid washing with water in the vicinity of electrical accessories on the control panel, battery, etc.
Do not spray pressurised water on to bearings or pulleys!
We do not recommend cleaning the mower and particularly the mowing deck using pressurised water. This can reduce the lifetime of
bearings and other moving parts!

REGULAR CHECKS, MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
6.3.1 BATTERY
Correct and regular maintenance of the battery will extend its lifespan. Therefore, regularly check its condition according to the
manual supplied by the battery's manufacturer.
► Keep the battery contacts clean. If dirt accumulates on them, or they are rusty, clean them according to the recommendations of
the battery's manufacturer. Interruption of the circuit caused by the oxidation of the contacts may lead to the malfunction of the
recharging function of the engine!
► A flat battery needs to be recharged as soon as possible, otherwise its cells may be irreparably damaged.
► It is always necessary to charge the battery before:
- first use
- when not planning on using it for a long time
- before starting up after a longer break
- in other cases, specified in the user's manual of the battery drawn up by its manufacturer.
► If it is necessary to replace the battery, always use a battery of the same size and type. For mowers with engines up to 22 HP, use
batteries with a capacity of 24 Ah; for mowers with 23 HP and more, use batteries with a capacity of 32 Ah.
Further details about checking and maintaining batteries are included in a separate user's manual supplied by the battery's manufacturer.
6.3.2 ENGINE
CHANGING OIL
Before changing the oil, prepare a container with a volume of at least 2 litres. So that all the oil
flows out of the engine we recommend that you place something (e.g. wooden blocks) under the
side opposite the drain bolt. Drain the oil while it is still warm.
► Unscrew the filler opening of the oil so that the oil flows better and faster out of the engine.
► Clip out the drain hose from the holder on the side of the engine and screw out the plug.
► Tilt the hose towards the prepared container and allow the oil to drain completely.
► Screw the plug back on and clip in the hose. Fill the engine with the correct amount of the
recommended oil (
User's manual for the engine) and close the oil filler cap.
► Use the dipstick to check the correct oil level. If necessary fill up the oil so that the oil is at the
correct level.
Further details about replacing oil as well as its type and amount are included in a separate user's manual supplied by the
engine's manufacturer.
If you come into contact with used oil, we recommend that you thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water.
Dispose of used oil according to environment protection laws. It is appropriate to deliver the oil in a closed container to a used oil
collection point. Under no circumstances should dispose of the used oil with other waste or pour it down the drain, on to waste or on
the floor.
MAINTENANCE OF THE AIR FILTER
Never allow the engine to run without an air filter. This rapidly wears out the engine.
