6. Maintenance
CONSEQUENCES OF POOR MAINTENANCE
Poor or even no maintenance on your mower reduces its lifespan and its functions, this
can lead to its deterioration and make your mower dangerous. Have your mower
serviced before each season by an approved workshop.
Stop the engine and wait for it to cool down and for the moving parts to stop before
carrying out any maintenance work.
IMPORTANT Regular, careful maintenance is essential for keeping the
safety level and original performance of the machine unchanged in time.
Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the equipment is in safe working

condition. Regular maintenance is essential for safety and performance.
Never store the equipment with fuel in the tank inside a building where vapour may

reach a flame or a spark or a source of extreme heat.
Allow the engine to cool before storing in an enclosed space.

To reduce the fire hazard, keep the engine, exhaust silencer, battery compartment and

fuel storage area free of grass, leaves, or excessive grease. Do not leave containers
with grass cuttings in rooms.
 For reasons of safety, do not use the equipment with worn or damaged parts. Parts are
to be replaced and not repaired. Use genuine spare parts (blades should always bear
the symbol). Parts that are not of the same quality can damage the equipment and be
dangerous for your safety.
If the fuel tank has to be drained, this should be done outdoors and when the engine

is cool.
Disconnect the spark plug cap before any
maintenance work to avoid accidental starting.
Use only original parts and accessories approved by
the manufacturer.
Contact an approved repairer in case of doubts and
operations not listed below.
Wear gloves for all maintenance operations.
Avoid any accidental fire by keeping the engine clean,
free grass, leaves and spilled oil or fuel.
Drain the fuel from the tank before tilting the mower
to its interview. The tilt should be spark plug upwards
so that oil and fuel do not damage the engine.
