Centres and Dealers.
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
7.2.1 Battery power reserve
Battery power reserve (and therefore the
cuttable vegetation area before recharging
is required) mainly depends on:
a. Environmental factors, that cause
higher energy requirements:
– cutting, high, wet vegetation;
b. operator behaviour that should be avoided:
– switching the machine on and off
frequently whilst working;
– adopting a cutting technique
that is unsuitable for the work to
be performed (par. 6.4.1).
To optimise battery power reserve
it is always recommended to:
• cut the grass when dry;
• use the most appropriate technique for
the work to be performed (par. 6.4.1).
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 (para. 15.1).
7.2.2 Battery removal and recharging
1. Press the buttons on the battery (Fig.
11.A) and remove it (Fig. 11.B);
2. Fit the battery (Fig. 12.A) in the battery
charger housing (Fig. 12.B);
3. connect the battery charger (Fig. 12.C)
to a power socket with the voltage
indicated on the rating plate.
4. fully charge the battery
to the instructions 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 (Fig. 13.A) from the
housing in the battery charger (do not keep
charging when recharging is completed);
2. Disconnect the battery charger (Fig.
13.B) from the electrical mains;
3. Fit the battery (Fig. 14.A) in its housing
pressing down until you hear it clicks firmly
into position and check the electrical contact.
7.3 CLEANING THE MACHINE
AND THE ENGINE
• Always clean the machine after use with a
damp cloth dipped in neutral detergent.
• Remove all traces of humidity using
a soft damp cloth. Humidity can
generate risks of electric shocks.
• Do not use aggressive detergents or solvents
to clean the plastic parts or hand grips.
• To reduce fire hazards, keep the machine
and, in particular, the motor free of
grass, leaves, or excessive grease.
• To avoid overheating and damage to the
motor or the battery, always keep the
cooling air vents clean and free of debris.
• Do not spray water onto the motor
and electrical components and
prevent them from getting wet.
7.4

NUTS AND BOLTS

• Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure
the equipment is in safe working condition.
• Check regularly that the
handles are fixed firmly.
