Connect the upper part of the housing (Fig. 3a/
Item A) and bottom part of the housing (Fig. 3a/
Item B) together and secure with one screw (Fig.
3b/Item 10) on each side.
Slot the guide wheel (Fig. 4/Item 4) into the guide
on the housing (Fig. 4/Item A). Make sure that the-
re is an audible click when they engage.
Fit the guard hood (Fig. 5/Item 3) as shown in Fi-
gure 5 and secure with 2 screws (Fig. 5/Item. 10).
Fit the brush (Fig. 6a/Item A) onto the drive axle
(Fig. 6a/Item B). Make sure that the brush
fi
ts ac-
curately into the mount (Fig. 6a/Item C). The shaft
must be
fi
xed in order to fasten the brush. To do
so, insert the pin (Fig. 2/Item 13) into the recess
on the shaft (Fig. 6b) and hold with one hand.
Using the open-ended wrench (Fig. 2/Item 12),
tighten the nut (Fig. 6b/Item 11).
Important! Be sure to remove the pin again
from the shaft.
To dismantle the equipment for changing the
brush proceed in reverse order.
6. Operation
The equipment can be connected to any socket-
outlet (with 230 V AC) that is equipped with a
10A fuse or higher. The socket-outlet has to be
safeguarded by an earth-leakage circuit breaker
(e.l.c.b.). The trip current must not exceed 30 mA.
•
Insert the equipment‘s plug into the power
cable coupling (extension).
•
Secure the power cable (Fig. 7/Item A) with
the strain-relief clip (Fig. 7/Item 1) fitted to the
equipment as shown.
•
To switch on the equipment, press and hold
the safety lock-off (Fig. 7/Item 6) and press
the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 7/ Item 2).
•
To switch off, release the ON/OFF switch (Fig.
7/item 2).
One steel brush (Fig. 2/Item 9) and one nylon
brush (Fig 2/Item 8) are supplied with the equip-
ment. The wire brush is suited for use on robust
surfaces and obstinate weeds. We recommend
using the nylon brush for light vegetation and sur-
faces too sensitive for the steel brush.
Important! Always carry out a short trial run
to check out possible e
ff
ects on the surfaces
of the paving stones or slabs before starting
with your work. Never use the equipment on
very sensitive surfaces, for example tiles.
Important! Only use brushes which are in
fl
awless condition. Replace excessively worn
or damaged brushes immediately.
Always use both hands to operate the equipment.
Guide the equipment along the joints at a walking
pace. For uniform results carry out your work at
a constant speed. If necessary, guide the equip-
ment along the same joint several times.
7. Replacing the power cable
Danger!
If the power cable for this equipment is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
after-sales service or similarly trained personnel
to avoid danger.
8. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Always pull out the mains power plug before star-
ting any cleaning work.
8.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could at-
tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu-
re that no water can seep into the device. The
ingress of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.
•
Use a brush to remove deposits from the
safety guard.
8.2 Carbon brushes
In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a quali
fi
ed electrician.
Danger!
The carbon brushes should not be rep
laced by anyone but a quali
fi
ed electrician.
