4.8 CLEANING
To reduce the risk of fire, keep the en-
gine, silencer, battery and fuel tank free
from grass, leaves and oil.
To reduce the risk of fire, regularly
check the machine for oil and/or fuel
leakage.
Never use high-pressure water. This can
damage shaft seals, electrical compo-
nents or hydraulic valves.
Never use high-pressure air against the
radiator fins. This will damage the fin
structure.
Clean the machine after each use. The following
instructions apply for cleaning:
• Do not spray water directly at the engine.
• Clean the engine with a brush and/or com-
pressed air.
• Clean the engine's cooling air intake (11-
12:W).
• After cleaning with water, start the machine and
any cutting deck to remove the water that may
otherwise penetrate bearings and cause
5 MAINTENANCE
5.1 SERVICE PROGRAMME
In order to keep the machine in good condition as
regards reliability and operational safety as well as
from an environmental perspective, GGP's Service
programme should be followed.
Servicing carried out at an authorised workshop
guarantees professional work using genuine spare
parts.
At each basic service and intermediate service car-
ried out at an authorised workshop, the service log
is stamped. A service log presenting these services
is a valuable document that improves the ma-
chine's second-hand value.
5.2 PREPARATION
All service and all maintenance must be carried out
on a stationary machine with the engine switched
off.
Prevent the machine from rolling by al-
ways applying the parking brake.
Stop the engine.
Prevent unintentional starting of the
engine by disconnecting the spark plug
cable(s) from the spark plug(s) and re-
moving the ignition key.
