9.3. The Cordless Reel Mower
Cleaning
A
To avoid injury to persons
and material damage:
Never clean your Cordless Reel
Mower with running water, in
particular with water under high
pressure.
After using the mower clean with
a moist cloth. Spray the cutting
cylinder and lower blade with
an oil of low viscosity (e.g.
spray oil).
Maintenance
The blades, which if cared for
properly must only be sharpened
after years, can only be
sharpened by Mantis due to the
special sharpening technique.
The mower may only be
repaired and the cutting blades
may only be installed by
approved specialist workshops.
Note: Ensure that all nuts, bolts
and screws are tight and that the
mower is in good working order.
For safety reasons, allow all
worn out and damaged parts to
be exchanged by Mantis Service
or authorized specialist dealers.
To avoid injury and damage to
the mower we recommend you
have your mower checked in
autumn so that it is ready and
safe to use next season.
Storage
Store your Cordless Reel Mower
in a dry, cool place where it is
protected from frost. The mower
should be stored out of the reach
of children.
9.4. Readjusting the cutting tool
The cutting tool of your Cordless
Reel Mower was set at an
optimum setting before leaving
our factory. However, if the cut
is not clean after using your
mower for a longer period of
time, please correct the setting of
the lower blade as follows:
1. Switch off the Cordless Reel
Mower and pull the battery
out of the contact bar to
prevent starting the Cordless
Reel Mower unintentionally.
2. Push the supplied thickness
gauge (fig. L pos.21) on the
left hand side between one
blade of the cutting cylinder
and the lower blade (fig. L).
3. Turn the hexagon thread bolt
(fig. L pos. 20) with a 10 mm
fork wrench to the left or to
the right until the thickness
gauge closes slightly. Repeat
this on the right hand side of
the mower.
4. Turn the cutting cylinder to
test the setting. None of the 5
blades of the cylinder must
touch the lower blade.
A
Warning! Handle the
cutting tool carefully to
avoid cutting yourself. Wear
appropriate gloves to protect
your hands.
5. When you have adjusted the
cutting tool test it using a
piece of newspaper (fig. M).
