water through it;
3. sit at the operator’s position;
4. lower the cutting deck completely;
5. start the engine and stay in neutral;
6. engage the blade and leave it to turn for a few minutes.
Take off the grass-catcher, empty and rinse it, then put
it in a position where it can dry quickly.
b) To clean the upper part of the cutting deck:
– lower the cutting deck completely (position «1»);
– blow a jet of compressed air to remove any remains of grass.

If the machine is likely to be unused for a long period (more than 1 month), disconnect
the cables from the battery and follow the instructions in the engine manual.

around the engine or silencer to prevent their catching fire the next time
the machine is used!
