Storage
Winter storage
At the end of the season, or if the machine is going to stand
idle for more than 30 days, it should immediately be made
ready for storage. Fuel which is left to stand for long periods
(30 days or more) can leave sticky deposits and interfere with
the engine function.
Fuel stabiliser is an acceptable alternative to avoid tacky
deposits during storage. Add stabiliser to the fuel in the tank
or the storage container. Always use the mixing ratios
indicated by the manufacturer. Run the engine for at least 10
minutes after adding the stabiliser.
To prepare the machine for storage follow these instructions:
1 Carefully clean the machine, especially under the cutting
unit. Touch-up paint damage to avoid rust.
2 Inspect the machine for worn or damaged parts and
tighten loose screws and nuts.
3 Change the engine oil, and take care of the waste oil.
4 Fill fuel tank.
5 Grease all grease nipples, joints and axles.
6 Remove the battery. Clean it, charge it, and store it in a
cool place.
7 Store the machine in a clean and dry place and cover it
over for extra protection.
Guard
There is a cover to protect your machine during storage or
transport. Contact your dealer for a demonstration
Service
Low season is the most suitable time to perform a service or
overhaul of the machine in order to ensure high function
safety during high season.
When ordering spare parts state your machine’s purchase
year, model, type, and serial number.
Always use genuine parts.
An annual check-up by an authorised servicing dealer is a
good way to ensure that your ride-on mower performs at its
best the following season.
!
WARNING! Never store a machine with fuel
in the tank indoors or in poorly ventilated
spaces where fuel vapour can come in
contact with open flames, sparks, or a pilot
light such as in a boiler, hot water tank,
clothes drier, etc. Exercise caution when
handling fuel. It is highly inflammable, and
careless use can cause serious injury and
damage to property. Drain off the fuel in an
approved container outdoors and well clear
of naked flames. Never use petrol for
cleaning purposes. Use degreasing agents
and hot water instead.
