Emptying the grass box
The grass box can be emptied from the driver's seat.
IMPORTANT!
When the grass box is full, an acoustic signal can be heard. The
box should be emptied now at the latest.
Switch the mowing appliance off - acoustic signal goes off.
Empty the grass box:
• Pulling tipping lever up out of the grass box.
• Fold grass box up with the aid of the tipping lever and
tip out grass.
• To empty the grass box completely, shake grass box se
veral
times.
If the grass box is folded up or uncoupled, when the
cutter bar is switched in, the engine will stall.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the lawn tractor
In order to work properly, the lawn tractor must be cleaned regularly.
After each use, clean adhering residue from the lawn tractor and the
grass box.
Grass box
Take the grass box off the lawn tractor.
Clean the fabric sack from the outside with a jet of water.
If necessary, also clean the inside of the fabric sack with a brush.
Housing / engine / transmission
The engine and all the bearings (wheels, transmission, blade bearings
etc.) must not be cleaned with water, in particular not with a high-
pressure cleaner.
Any water penetrating into the ignition unit, into the carburettor and the
air filter can cause damage. Water in the bearings can lead to a loss of
lubrication and thus to the destruction of the bearings.
To remove dirt and residue of grass, use a cloth, a hand-held
sweeper, a long-handled brush etc.
Electrical unit
Do not clean the electrical unit with water. Penetration of
water into the electrical unit (switch, display, cable,
operating elements etc.) can lead to damage.
Replacing and resharpening the mowing
blade
At the end of the mowing season always resharpen the mowing blade or,
if required, replace the mowing blade with a new one.
Always have the mowing blade resharpened or replaced by a customer
service centre (measurement of imbalance).
Unbalanced blades will cause the lawn mower to vibrate violently –
risk of accident!
