5 Maintenance 5.1 Introduction - maintenance For better operating reliability and longer service life: check and clean the product regularly and replace worn parts if necessary. All maintenance and servicing must be done according to Husqvarna's instructions. Refer to Warranty terms on page 48. When the product is first used, the blade disc and blades should be inspected once a week. If the amount of wear during this period has been low, the inspection interval can be increased. It is important that the blade disc rotates easily. The edges of the blades should not be damaged. The lifetime of the blades varies immensely and depends for instance on: • Operating time and size of the work area. • Type of grass and seasonal growth. • Soil, sand and use of fertilizers. • The presence of objects such as cones, windfalls, toys, tools, stones, roots and the like. The normal life is 4 to 7 weeks when used under favorable conditions. Refer to To replace the blades on page 31 on how to replace the blades. Husqvarna offers a special cleaning and maintenance kit as an accessory. Contact your Husqvarna central service. CAUTION: Never use a high-pressure washer to clean the product. Never use solvents for cleaning. 5.2.1 Chassis and blade disc Inspect the blade disc and blades once a week. 1. Press the STOP button. 2. Press the ON/OFF button for 3 seconds to turn off the product. 3. Check that the indicator lamp on the ON/OFF button is not lit. 4. If the product is very dirty, clean it by using a dish brush or a garden hose. Do not use a high-pressure washer. 5. Lift the product onto its side. 6. Clean the blade disc and chassis using for example a dish brush. At the same time, check that the blade disc rotates freely in relation to the foot guard. Also, check that the blades are intact and can pivot freely. Note: Working with blunt blades gives a poorer mowing result. The grass is not cut cleanly and more energy is needed resulting in the product not mowing such a large area. WARNING: The product must be turned off before any maintenance is done. The product is disabled when the indicator lamp on the ON/OFF button is not lit. WARNING: Wear protective gloves. 5.2 Clean the product It is important to keep the product clean. A product with large amounts of grass stuck to it will not cope as well with slopes. It is recommended to clean using a brush. 5.2.2 Wheels Clean around the front wheels and rear wheel as well as the rear wheel bracket. Grass on the wheels can impact on how the product performs in slopes. 5.2.3 Cover Use a damp, soft sponge or cloth to clean the cover. If the cover is very dirty it may be necessary to use a soap solution or washing-up liquid. 30 - Maintenance 982 - 003 -
