5 Maintenance 5.1 Introduction - maintenance WARNING: The product must be switched off before any maintenance is done. WARNING: Wear protective gloves. For better operation and longer service life, make sure to clean the product regularly and replace worn parts. All maintenance and servicing must be done according to Husqvarna's instructions. Refer to Warranty on page 53. 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 3 to 6 weeks when used under favorable conditions. Refer to Replacement of the blades on page 36 on how to replace the blades. 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. 5.2.1 Chassis and blade disc Inspect the blade disc and blades once a week. 1. Push the STOP button. 2. Set the Main switch to position 0. 3. Lift the product onto its side. 4. 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. 5.2.2 To clean the wheels The product does not operate satisfactorily in slopes if the wheels are blocked with grass. • Use a soft brush to clean the wheels. 5.2.3 To clean the body of the product • Use a moist cloth and a weak soap solution to clean the body of the product. 5.2.4 To clean the charging station WARNING: Disconnect the power supply from the power outlet before maintenance, or when you clean the charging station or power supply. 5.2 Clean the product CAUTION: Never use a high-pressure washer to clean the product. Never use solvents for cleaning. The product does not operate satisfactorily in slopes if the wheels are blocked with grass. Use a soft brush to clean the product. Husqvarna recommends to use a special cleaning and maintenance kit, available as accessory. Speak to your Husqvarna representative for more information. CAUTION: Do not use a high-pressure washer or running water to clean the charging station. Note: The product cannot enter the charging station if there are objects in the charging station. Clean the charging station regularly. • Remove grass, twigs and other objects from the charging station. 1230 - 004 - 04.03.2022 Maintenance - 35
