Remark:
Check beforehand that the machine does not have bent blades. If a bent blade is detec-
ted, a pair of pliers can be used to straighten it, so that it is aligned again with the other blades.
Depth adjustment is done by positioning the front wheels (stepless adjustment) of the scarifier.
Caution:
First switch off the engine and check that the blades have come to a
standstill before setting the work depth.
• Carefully place the scarifier on an even and hard surface. Make sure that the blades do not get
damaged.
• Place a level object of approx. 4 mm thick under both front wheels.
• Turn the blades until the tips are as close to the surface as possible.
• If the tips of the blades do not touch the ground, the blades need to be made deeper. If the
blades do touch the ground, they need to be lowered.
• First, turn the blocking handles half a turn anti-clockwise to remove the clamping on the
adjustment screw.
• To deepen the blades, turn the adjustment screws on
each side of the machine clockwise to set the blades
deeper.
• To reduce the depth setting of the blades, turn the
adjustment screws anti-clockwise.
• Turn each adjustment screw equally so that the depth
on each side of the machine is set evenly. The size
designator on the front of the machine is a reference to
check this.
• The depth setting is correct when the blades are only just
above the surface.
• Check that the front side of the scarifier is horizontal; if not,
depth adjustment must be carried out again.
• Carefully remove the thick plate from underneath both
front wheels.
9.3. Refuelling
When petrol in the machine is running low, it must be refuelled. Using fresh petrol is recommen-
ded at all times. Use unleaded petrol, preferably with an octane index of 98 or 99.
Warning:
Under certain conditions, petrol is extremely flammable and highly
explosive. Fires and petrol explosions can inflict severe burns and cause damage
to personal property. As a result, please observe the following points:
• Never refuel with the engine running. Always allow the engine to cool off for several minutes
prior to fuelling.
• Use fresh petrol only. ELIET is environmentally conscious and, as such, recommends using
unleaded petrol. Additives may be used for extended fuel freshness.
