GRASS COLLECTOR ASSEMBLY
WARNING!
Do not attempt to use the product without
the grass catcher attached as objects may be
thrown.
WARNING!
The product must be switched off and the
cutting device must have stopped rotating
before you attach or empty the grass
catcher!
Never use the scarifier without the
grass catcher bag securely fitted.
NOTE:
A full grass catcher will reduce the
performance of this product. The grass
catcher should be emptied when it is half full.
Always attach the grass catcher (15) to the
product before operation.
Open the deflector guard (14), hold it in
position and align the hooks on the grass
catcher (15) with the hinges on the back of
machine.
Empty the grass catcher (15) frequently
during use. Do not wait until it is completely
full. We recommend emptying it when it is
half full.
Lift the deflector guard (14) and pull the grass
catcher (15) off the hinges to remove it.
Empty the collected material onto a compost
heap and reattach it onto the product.
CABLE ROUTING
Always route the electric mains cable away
from the work area to prevent it from coming
into contact with the cutting device. Plan your
route before starting work. Start your work at
the nearest point to the electrical outlet, and
work away from it. This will keep the cable
away from the cutting device and avoid it
being accidentally cut. Keep the cable over
your shoulder for added safety.
For cord strain relief of the cable, form a loop
at the end of the main cable and bring this
through the opening in the handle and insert
it into the cord strain relief.
CUTTING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
WARNING!
Always switch the product off and remove
the mains plug from the power supply before
making any adjustments.
Adjust the depth according to the needs of
your lawn. The most suitable depth depends
on the kind of lawn and the actual height of
the grass.
Please note when working on an unkempt
lawn with thick thatch you should rake or
scarify the lawn at a higher setting before
going over it again at a lower setting, so as not
to put too much strain on the motor.
Push the depth adjustment lever (10) towards
the wheel (11), then move it forward or
backward to adjust the cutting depth. (See
Fig. 8a).
Adjust the lever (10) to one out of the five
stages. Read the adjusted depth from the
scale. (See image and the table below).
