5. OPERATION TIPS
¥
Lay the power cable on the ground in loops in front of the power
outlet. Scarify away from the power outlet and cable, making sure
that the power cable always trails in the already scarified grass so
that the equipment does not travel over the cable.
¥
Try to scarify in straight lines for a nice, clean look. In so
doing, the aeration swaths should always overlap each other
by a few centimetres in order to avoid bare strips.
WARNING!
KEEP POWER CORD AWAY FROM
ROLLER.

¥
How frequently you should scarify your lawn is determined primarily
by the speed at which the grass grows and the hardness of the soil.
¥
Keep the underside of the equipment clean and remove soil and
grass build-up. Deposits make it more difficult to start the aerator
and decrease the quality of the scarifying.
¥
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the long handles) is
maintained between the user and the housing.
¥
Be especially careful when scarifying and changing direction on
slopes and inclines.
¥
Maintain a solid footing and wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and long
trousers.
¥
Always scarify along the incline (not up and down).
¥
For safety reasons, the scarifier may not be used to scarify inclines
whose gradient exceeds 15 degrees.
¥
Use special caution when backing up and pulling the scarifier
aerator (tripping hazard).
¥
It is recommended that you overlap scarifying paths a little.
