rotating rake (2) serves to finely
level after crumbling.

Remove the Accu from
the unit!

3. Place the accessory tool
(crumbling head (1) or rotating
rake (2)) onto the three bayonet
pins (5) by means of the centre
pin (4) and press down. Turn
the accessory tool clockwise
until the red safety knob (6)
snaps in.
Changing the accessory tool

Remove the Accu from
the unit!
2. Stand the Tiller on the handle
(3).
3. To unlock and remove the
accessory tool (crumbling head
or rotating rake), simultane-
ously press the red safety knob
(6) and turn the accessory
tool counter clockwise.
4. Assembly as described above.
Attention! Before assembly
or exchanging an accessory
tool always clear the head sup-
port (7) of possible remaining
soil (also refer to point 6. Main-
tenance / Service / Storage).
5.2 How to snap-in / remove
the Accu
(ill. A 1)
Insert the Accu (8) with the nipple
(9) into the attachment part (10).
Snap the Accu (8) and the coun-
terpart (11) over the two orange
knobs (12). Listen for an audible
snap-in. Release the Accu (8)
from the unit by simultaneously
pressing the two orange locking
knobs (2) on the handle (3) or
respectively on the Accu-Pack
AP 12. Remove the Accu (8).
5.3 Working position

Just lift the unit by the handle (3)
and guide handle (14). The ac-
cessory tool is guided vertically
over the cultivated surface.
5.4 Adjusting the guide handle

(ill. D)
By loosening the fastening screw
(15) the guide handle (14) can
conveniently be adjusted accord-
ing to user’s height and area of

(ill. A1 / C - G)
Snap in the Accu (8), as de-
scribed under 5.2.
Switch the unit on by pressing
the starting switch (13) on the
handle (3). The Tiller automati-
cally switches off when releasing
the starting switch (13).
Hold the Tiller in normal work-
ing position before switching
on
(see ill. C / E / F).
A
The safety devices in-
stalled by the manufac-
turer must not be removed
or by-passed, e. g. by binding
the on / off switch to the handle.
This will prevent the Tiller
switching off automatically,
and may cause serious injury.
Do not operate the unit with
an external power source!
Attention! The Tiller will take a
while to stop running after the
unit is switched off.
5.6 Working with the Tiller on
cultivated surfaces
(ill. C / E - G)
Crumbling of friable soil
conditions
(ill. E)
For assembly of the crumbling
head (1) see point 5.1.
For preparation of a cultivated
area with friable conditions in
early spring, and for fine crum-
bling when preparing beds
for sowing.
Guide the crumbling head (1)
vertically in the soil. To ease the
load, start the Tiller just before
dipping into the soil surface.
A fine crumbling structure of the
upper layer of soil is obtained
by pulling in circular movements.
Levelling of areas
with the rotating rake
(ill. F)
For assembly of the rotating rake
(2) see point 5.1.
To level the soil surface, move
the roating rake (2) evenly across
the pre-crumbled soil in circular
movements.
Crumbling between plants
