Cleaning The Machine; Checking The Mowing Blade Wear Limits - Viking MI 422 Manuel D'utilisation

● Check the display – check current time
and the start of the next mowing
operation.
● Check the mowing area and remove
foreign bodies, etc. as required.
● Check that the battery is being charged.
( 14.7)
Weekly maintenance operations:
● Clean the machine. (
● Visually inspect the mowing blade,
blade fastening and mowing deck for
damage (notches, cracks, fractures,
etc.) and wear. ( 15.3)
Every 200 hours:
● Replace the mowing blade. A
corresponding reminder appears in the
display. ( 15.4)
Annual maintenance operations:
● VIKING recommends an annual
inspection by a VIKING specialist
dealer during the winter months.
Here, maintenance of the battery,
electronics and software in particular is
performed.
In order for your specialist dealer to
perform all the maintenance
operations correctly, set the safety
level to "None" or give your
specialist dealer the appropriate
PIN code.

15.2 Cleaning the machine

Care of the machine will protect it against
damage and extend its service life.

Cleaning and maintenance position:
15.2)
Place the machine on a firm, level and flat
surface for cleaning the top of the
machine (hood, flap). To clean the
underside of the machine (mowing
blade, mowing deck) tilt the robotic mower
onto its left or right side as illustrated and
lean it against a wall.
● Clean off dirt with a brush or a cloth. In
particular, also clean the mowing blade
and the docking station.
● Detach accumulated clipping deposits
in the housing and in the mowing deck
beforehand using a stick.
● If necessary, use a special cleaner
(e.g. STIHL special cleaner).
Only perform cleaning work on the
mowing blades when wearing thick
work gloves and exercising
extreme care.
● Regularly remove the carrier plate and
remove grass residues. (
The carrier plate must be cleaned
frequently in wet weather. Dirt
deposits between the carrier plate
and the mowing deck housing
creates friction, leading to
increased power consumption.
15.3 Checking the mowing blade wear
limits
Risk of injury!
A worn mowing blade may break off
and cause serious injuries. The
instructions for blade maintenance
must therefore always be observed.
Mowing blades are subject to
differing degrees of wear
depending on the location and
duration of use. If you use the
machine on sandy ground or use it
frequently under dry conditions, the
mowing blade will be subjected to
greater loads and will wear more
quickly than normal.
The mowing blade must be
replaced at least every
200 operating hours, resharpening
must be carried out by a VIKING
specialist dealer. (
● Activate the disabling device. (
● Tilt the robotic mower onto its side and
lean it securely against a stable wall.
Carefully clean the mowing deck and
mowing blade. ( 15.2)
