Charging the battery (Fig. 10)
The equipment is supplied without batteries and
without a charger!
1. Take the battery pack out of the equipment.
Do this by pressing the pushlock buttons (Fig.
11/Item C).
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as
that marked on the rating plate of the battery
charger. Insert the power plug of the charger
(22) into the socket outlet. The green LED will
then begin to
fl
ash.
3. Insert the battery pack (21) into the battery
charger (22).
4. In the section entitled „Charger indicator“ you
will
fi
nd a table with an explanation of the LED
indicator on the charger.
The battery pack can become a little warm during
the charging. This is normal.
If the battery pack fails to charge, check:
•
whether there is voltage at the socket outlet
•
whether there is good contact at the charging
contacts
If the battery pack still fails to charge, send
•
the charging unit
•
and the battery pack
to our customer service center.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long ser-
vice, you should take care to recharge it promptly.
You must recharge the battery pack when you
notice that the performance of the device drops.
Never allow the battery pack to become fully di-
scharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.

(Item A). The battery capacity indicator (Item B)
shows the charge status of the battery using 3
LEDs.
All 3 LEDs are lit:
The battery is fully charged.
2 or 1 LED(s) are lit:
The battery has an adequate remaining charge.
1 LED

The battery pack has undergone exhaustive di-
scharge and is defective. Do not use or charge a
defective battery pack.
Installing the battery (Fig. 12-13)
Open the battery cover. This is done by pressing
the lock (B) as shown in Fig. 12 and swinging
up the cover. Then insert the two batteries in the
mounts as shown in Fig. 13 and push them for-
ward until the batteries audibly latch into place.
Note!
Use only batteries which are charged to the same
level. Never combine full and half-full batteries.
Always charge the two batteries simultaneously.
The equipment‘s operating time depends on the
battery with the lower charge level. The two batte-
ries must always be fully charged before use.
6. Operation
Caution!
The scari
fi
er is equipped with a safety switch to
prevent unauthorized use. Directly before starting
up the scari
fi
er insert the safety plug (Fig. 13/Item
15) and remove the safety plug again when inter-
rupting or terminating your work.
To prevent accidental start-up of the scari
fi
er, the
push bar (Fig. 14/Item 5) is equipped with a safety
lock-o
ff
(Fig. 14/Item 2) which must be pressed
before the lever switch (Fig. 14/Item 1) can be
pressed. The start time for the equipment can
amount to several seconds. If the lever switch is
released, the scari
fi

process several times so that you are sure that
your equipment functions properly. Always pull
out the safety plug before performing any adjus-
ting, repair, maintenance or cleaning work on the
equipment. Make sure that the spike drum is not
rotating.
Danger!
Never open the ejector

especially careful when scarifying and changing
direction on slopes and inclines. Maintain a solid
footing and wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and
