This power tool generates an electromagnetic field
during operation. Under certain circumstances, this field can
affect active or passive medical implants. To reduce the risk
of serious or fatal injuries, we recommend that persons with
medical implants consult their physician and the manufacturer
of the medical implant before operating the machine!
2. Turn off the product, disconnect the power supply and
unplug the extension cord from the power outlet if

1. Injuries and material damage caused by flying parts.
2. Hearing damage if you do not wear suitable hearing
protection or use the power tool for a long period of time.
3. Damage to health resulting from hand-arm vibrations if
the power tool is used for a long period of time or is not
properly operated and maintained.
Penetrated liquids can cause a short circuit in the scarifier.
If you then come into contact with the vertical scarifier, you
may be injured by electric shock. The scarifier can also be
damaged by a short circuit.
- If it starts to rain during scarifying, switch off the scarifier
immediately, disconnect the mains plug from the extension
cable and pull it out of the socket.
