7.2 BATTERY
7.2.1 Battery power reserve
Battery power reserve (and therefore the mowable lawn
surface before recharging is required) mainly depends on:
Environmental factors that cause
a.
higher energy requirements:
– Mowing dense, high and/or wet grass.
b. Machine cutting width: the wider the
width, the greater is the energy need.
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 in relation
to 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 when the grass is very tall.
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. 15.1).
7.2.2 Battery removal and recharging
1. Open the battery housing hatch and remove the
safety key (Fig.13.A)
2. Press the flap in the battery housing (Fig.13.B)
and remove the battery (Fig.13.C).
3. Insert the battery (Fig.14.A) in its hou-
sing in the battery charger (Fig.14.B).
4. Connect the battery charger to a power socket
with the voltage indicated on the rating plate.
5. Fully charge the battery according to the instruc-
tions 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.
NOTE The battery can be recharged at any
time, even partially, with no risk of damaging it.
7.2.3 Refitting the battery on the machine
When recharging is completed:
1. Remove the battery from the housing in the battery
charger (do not keep recharging when recharging is
completed).
2. Disconnect the battery charger from
the mains power supply.
3. Open the battery housing hatch (Fig.8.A), in-
sert the battery (Fig.8.B) in its housing pres-
sing down until you hear it click firmly into
position and check the electrical contact.
4. .Insert the safety key (Fig.8.C).
5. Completely close the hatch again.
7.3 CLEANING
Clean thoroughly following the instructions
below every time it is used.
7.3.1 Cleaning the machine
• Always make sure the air intakes are free of debris.
• Do not spray water onto the motor and electrical
components and prevent them from getting wet (Fig.15).
• 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.
7.3.2 Cleaning the cutting-means assembly
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.
Paint on internal chassis parts may come off over
time due to the abrasive action of cut grass; if this
happens, promptly touch-up paint with rust-proof paint
to prevent rusting that could corrode the metal.
