5. Before starting the equipment
Before you connect the equipment to the mains
supply make sure that the data on the rating plate
are identical to the mains data.
Warning!
Always pull the power plug before making
adjustments to the equipment.
Assembly (Fig. 4-11)
•
Remove the Philips screw (Fig. 3/Item A) with
circlip and washer from both ends of the axle.
Then push the transport wheel onto both
ends of the axle as shown in Fig. 4 and secu-
re with the Philips screw, circlip and washer
(see Fig. 4 detail).
•
Press the wheel caps (Fig. 5/Item 11) onto
the transport wheels.
•
Push the cable strain-relief clip (Fig. 6a/Item
5) onto the lower push bar, then push the
lower push bar onto the engine unit (Fig. 6a/
Item 3) as shown in Fig. 6a and secure with
the screws (Fig. 6b/Item 9) and the star nuts
(Fig. 6b/Item 8).
•
Push the top push bar (Fig. 7a/Item 1) onto
the lower push bar (Fig. 7a/Item 2) and se-
cure with the screws (Fig. 7a/Item 9) and the
star nuts (Fig. 7a/Item 8).
•
Fit the two-hand safety switch on the top push
bar as shown in Fig. 7b and 7c.
•
Fasten the cable with the 2 cable securing
clamps (Fig. 8/Item 7) to the push bars.
Power supply
The machine can be connected to any light
socket-outlet (with 230 Volt alternating current).
However, the socket outlet must have an earthing
contact protected by a 16 A circuit breaker. Addi-
tionally, a residual current device (RCD) circuit-
breaker with max. 30 mA must be used!
Power cable for the device
Please only use power cables that are not dama-
ged. The total length of the power cable should
not exceed 50 meters; going beyond this distance
will reduce the power output of the electric motor.
The power cable must have a cross-section of 3 x
1.5 mm
2
. The insulating sheath of such machines
is frequently damaged.
Some of the causes for this are:
•
Cracking due to old age of the insulation
•
Kinking caused by improper fastening or
guidance of the power cable
Even though power cables with damaged insula-
tion sheaths pose a lethal hazard, some people
still use them. Do not make this mistake! Cables,
plugs and socket couplers must meet the fol-
lowing requirements listed below. Power cables
used to connect machines must have a rubber
insulation sheath.
The power cables must, at the very minimum, be
of type HO5RN-F and 3-stranded. The cable type
must be printed somewhere on the power cable.
Only purchase power cables that are marked!
Plugs and socket couplers for the power cables
must be made from rubber and splash-proof.
There is a limit to how long power cables can be.
Longer power cables require larger conductor
cross-sections. Power cables and connecting li-
nes must be regularly checked for damage. Ensu-
re that the lines are de-energized before checking
them. Completely unwind the power cable. Also
check power cable entry points, plugs and socket
couplers for kinks.
6. Operation
6.1 Starting up
Connect the machine’s power supply cable (Fig
9/ Item B) to the plug (Fig. 9/Item A) and secure
the power cable with the strain-relief clamp (Fig
9/Item 5).
Danger!
To prevent accidental start-up of the ma-
chine, the push-bar is equipped with a two-point
switch (Fig. 10/Item A) which must be pressed
before the lever switch (Fig. 10/Item B) can be
pressed. If the lever switch is released, the machi-
ne switches o
ff
. Repeat this process several times
so that you are sure that your machine functions
properly. Before you perform any repair or mainte-
nance work on the machine, ensure that the hoe
blades are not rotating and that the power supply
is disconnected.
The equipment must be moved into operating
position before you begin with your work. First pull
the locking pin (Fig. 11/Item A) in the direction of
the arrow as shown in Fig. 11 and swing up the
wheel unit until the locking pin engages again in
position B. Proceed in reverse order to move the
equipment into transport position.
