The machine, its packaging and
accessories are all produced
from recyclable materials and
must be disposed of
accordingly.
By disposing of materials separately and in
an environmentally-friendly manner,
valuable resources can be re-used. For
this reason, the machine should be
disposed of for recycling at the end of its
useful life.
1 4. 1 Disposal
Waste products such as used oil (engine
oil, gearbox oil) and fuel must always be
disposed of properly.
Render the engine unusable prior to
disposal. In particular, remove the ignition
lead, empty the fuel tank and drain the
engine oil.
Risk of injury from the hoes!
Always store an old tiller in a safe place
prior to scrapping. Make sure that the
machine and the hoes are kept out of the
reach of children.

regard to safety, operation and
maintenance, or which arise through the
use of unauthorised attachment or spare
parts.
Please always observe the following
important information for the prevention of
damage or excessive wear to your VIKING

1 . Wearing parts
Some parts of the VIKING machine are
subject to normal wear even when used
properly and must be replaced in due time
depending on type and duration of use.
These include:
– V-belt

– Brake spur
2. Compliance with the information in
this instruction manual
The VIKING machine must be used,
maintained and stored with the care
described in this instruction manual. Any

the safety, operating and maintenance
instructions is the sole responsibility of the
user.
This applies in particular to:
– Product modifications not approved by
VIKING.

by VIKING (lubricants, petrol and
engine oil, see engine manufacturer's
specifications).
– The use of tools or accessories which

the case of loss of control – i.e.
