5. Before starting the equipment
The equipment is delivered unassembled. The grass
basket and the complete push bar must be
assembled and mounted before using the equipment.
Follow the operating instructions step-by-step and
use the pictures provided as a visual guide to easily
assemble the equipment.
Fitting the bottom push bar (Fig. 3)
Fit the bottom push bar (Fig. 3 / Item 3) to the push
bar holder using the screws (Fig. 3 / Item 9) and nuts
(Fig. 3 / Item 10) supplied.
Fitting the top push bar holder (Fig. 4)
Position the upper push bar (Fig. 4 / Item 2) such that
its holes line up with the holes of the lower bar. Screw
the tubes together, using the screws (Fig. 4 / Item 12)
and nuts (Fig. 4 / Item 8) supplied. Use the supplied
cable clips (Fig. 4 / Item 11) to secure the throttle
cable and the engine Start / Stop cable to the lower
push bar.
Fitting the debris box (Fig. 5)
Lift the ejector flap (Fig. 5 / Item 5) with one hand and
attach the debris box (Fig. 5/Item 6) to the handle
from above using your other hand.
Important
: Before you attach the debris box you
must ensure that the engine is switched off and the
roller is not rotating.
6. Starting up
Important!
The engine does not come with oil in it.
Therefore, ensure that you add oil before starting
it up. The oil level in the engine must be checked
each time before mowing. (see Checking the oil
level).
Starting the equipment (Fig. 6 – 7)
In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the
engine, it comes equipped with an engine brake (Fig.
6/Item 1) which must be pressed at all times whilst
the device is in use, otherwise the engine will stop.
Important:
When the engine brake lever is released
it must return to its initial position and the engine
must stop. If this is not the case, do not use the
equipment again.
1.
Open the petrol cock (Fig. 7 / Item B). Set the
cock to “ON” for this purpose.
2.
Set the choke lever (Fig. 7/Item C) to the
“Choke” position.
3.
Move the throttle lever (Fig. 1 / Item 7) to the
center position.
4.
Press the engine brake lever (Fig. 6 / Item 1) and
pull the starter cable (Fig. 7 / Item A) forcefully
until the engine starts.
5.
Allow the engine to warm up briefly and then set
the choke lever (Fig. 7 / Item B) to the “RUN”
Position.
6.
The speed of the cutter unit can be controlled
using the throttle lever (Fig. 6 / Item 7) (tortoise =
slow / rabbit = fast).
Important:
Always pull the starter cable slowly until
you feel the initial resistance before you then pull it
quickly to start the engine. Do not allow the starter
cable to whip back of its own accord.
Important:
The scarifier roller begins to rotate as
soon as the engine is started.
Important!
Never open the ejector flap when the
motor is running. A rotating cutting unit can cause
injuries.
Always fasten the ejector flap carefully. The flap flips
back to the “Closed” position by the tension springs!
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the
long handles) is maintained between the user and
the housing. Be especially careful when scarifying
