After Winter Storage; Cleaning - Flymo 1200 R Installation Manual

Charging station
Store the charging station and transformer indoors.
The boundary wire and the guide wire can be left in the
ground. The ends of the wires should be protected
from damp by putting them in a container with grease
for instance.

8.2 After winter storage

Check if cleaning is needed, particularly the charging
strips on both the robotic lawnmower and the charging
station, on the first time of use. If the charging strips
appear to be burnt or coated, clean them using a fine
grade emery cloth. Check also that the robotic
lawnmower's time and date are correct.

8.3 Cleaning

It is important to keep the robotic lawnmower clean.
A mower with large amounts of grass stuck to it will
not cope as well with slopes. It is recommended to
clean using a brush and a spray bottle with water.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Never use a high-pressure washer or even
running water to clean the robotic
lawnmower. Never use solvents for cleaning.
Chassis and blade disc
1. Set the main switch in position 0.
2. Wear protective gloves.
3. Lift the robotic lawnmower onto its side.
4. Clean the blade disc and chassis using e.g. a
dish brush.
At the same time, check that the blade disc
rotates freely in relation to the foot guard.
If long blades of grass or other objects find their
way in, these may impede the blade disc. Even a
slight braking effect leads to a higher
consumption of energy and longer mowing
times, and at worst will prevent the robotic
lawnmower from being able to mow a large lawn.
Chassis
Clean the underside of the chassis. Brush or wipe
with a damp cloth.
Wheels
Clean around the front wheels and rear wheel as well
as the rear wheel bracket.
