Nuts And Bolts; Occasional Maintenance - ST E 300 Li 40 Serie Manual De Instrucciones

IMPORTANT Any maintenance and adjustment
operations not described in this manual must be carried
out by your dealer or Authorised Service Centre.
7.2 BATTERY
Battery power reserve
7.2.1
Battery power reserve (and therefore the mowable lawn
surface before recharging is required) mainly depends on:
a. Environmental factors, that cause
higher energy requirements:
– Mowing dense, high or wet grass;
b. Machine cutting width; Wider settings
involve higher energy consumption;
c. operator behaviour that should be avoided:
– switching the machine on and off
frequently whilst working;
– Setting a cutting height that is too
low for the lawn conditions;
– Working at a speed that is too high for the
amount of grass to be removed.
NOTE During use, the battery is protected against
total drainage with a protective device that switches
off the machine and stops it from working.
To optimise battery power reserve it
is always recommended to:
• Cut the grass when the lawn is dry;
• Cut the grass frequently so that it doesn't grow too tall;
• Set a higher cutting height when the grass is very
tall, then set a lower height and cut the lawn again;
• Do not use the machine in "mulching"
mode with very high grass.
If the need arises to use the machine for sessions which
exceed the capability of a standard battery, it is possible to:
• purchase a second standard battery to immediately
replace the discharged battery, without
compromising the continuity of operations;
• purchase a battery with an extended power reserve
compared to the standard version (par. 15.2).
Battery removal and recharging
7.2.2
Open the battery compartment access
1.
hatch and remove the safety key;
press the buttons on the battery (fig.
2.
18.A) and remove it (fig. 18.B);
insert the battery (fig.19.A) in its slot in
3.
the battery charger (fig.19.B);
connect the battery charger to a power socket
4.
with the voltage indicated on the rating plate.
fully charge the battery according to the instructions
5.
in the battery/battery charger booklet.
NOTE The battery is equipped with a guard
that inhibits recharging if the environmental
temperature is not between 0 and +45°C.
IMPORTANT The battery can be charged at any
time, even partially, with no risk of damaging it.
Refitting the battery on the machine
7.2.3
When recharging is completed:
Remove the battery from its slot in the
1.
battery charger (do not keep recharging
when recharging is completed);
Disconnect the battery charger from
2.
the mains power supply;
Open the battery compartment hatch (fig.19.C),
3.
insert the battery (fig.19.A) into its slot pressing
down until you hear it click firmly into position
and ensuring the electrical contact;
Completely close the hatch again.
4.
7.3 CLEANING
Clean thoroughly following the instructions
below every time it is used.
7.3.1 Cleaning the machine
• Do not spray water onto the motor and electrical
components and prevent them from getting wet (fig.21).
• Do not use aggressive liquids to clean the chassis.
• To reduce fire hazards, keep the lawnmower
and, in particular, the motor free of grass,
leaves, or excessive grease.
Cleaning the cutting means assembly
7.3.2
Remove grass debris and mud accumulated in
the chassis to prevent it from drying and causing
problems the next time the lawnmower is used.
Tilt the machine laterally and make sure that
it is stable before starting any work.
7.3.3 Cleaning the grass catcher
Empty the grass catcher;
1.
Shake it to remove grass cuttings and soil residue;
2.
Wash it, rinse it and fit it back so as
3.
to facilitate quick drying.
7.4

NUTS AND BOLTS

• Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure
the equipment is in safe working condition.
8.

OCCASIONAL MAINTENANCE

Before conducting any inspections,
cleaning or maintenance/adjustment
interventions on the machine:
• Stop the machine;
• Remove the safety key, (never leave
the key inserted or within the reach of
children or unauthorised persons);
• make sure that all moving parts have
come to a complete stop;
• allow the engine to cool before
storing in an enclosed space;
