6.OPERATION
Start and stop the implement (fig. 7)
To prevent an accidental start-up of the implement,the throttle handle (1) is
equipped with a safety re-lease switch (12) which must be pressed before the
On/Off switch (13) can be pressed. If the On/Off switch (13) is released, the
equipment switches off.Repeat this process several times so that you are sure
that the machine functions properly. Before you perform any repair or
maintenance work on the machine, ensure that the cutting unit is not rotating and
that the power supply is disconnected.Always ensure that a safe distance
(provided by the long handles) is maintained between the user and the housing.
The safety distance between housing and user given by the handle (1) must
always be observed.Be especially careful when digging and changing direction
on slopes and inclines.
Maintain a solid footing and wear sturdy,non-slip foot wear and long trousers.
Always dig along the incline (not up and down). For safety reasons, the Electric
Tiller may not be used to dig up inclines whose gradient exceeds 15 degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling the implement (tripping
hazard)!
Tips for proper working
Always guide the machine slowly and wisely forward.Dig up the area in straight
lines.Let the tracks overlap slightly to not miss any stripes to dig. Only use the
machine to dig up already loosened soil.
