7.3 Safety instructions
7.3.1 General safety instructions
Warning:
MOST ACCIDENTS ARE CAUSED BY CARELESSNESS OR
RECKLESS BEHAVIOUR.
• The owner of the machine shall keep this manual throughout its service life. A reference guide
for the user, it also ensures that the machine is used and maintained correctly at all times.
Always refer to this instruction manual if you have any doubts about an operation that you are
about to perform.
• If the instructions stated in this manual are not clear to you, do not hesitate to contact your
ELIET dealer for further explanation. The help desk at ELIET is at your service to answer all of
your questions on +32 56 77 70 88.
• Be sure to read the chapter which is intended for the dealer and verify whether the machine
was delivered in accordance with the instructions.
• During operation of the ELIET machine all safety instructions must be observed. Make sure to
read all the instructions about how to operate the machine. All these instructions are for your
own safety.
• Get advice from the dealer or another professional when purchasing the machine.
• Read and observe all safety messages stickered on the machine.
7.3.2 Careful and cautious use
• Think about what you are doing at every manoeuvre. Do not be tempted to let routine dull
your attention. Never act impulsively or on reflex.
• Despite the extensive safety features, do not seek out dangerous situations.
• This machine serves to loosen and remove the moss and thatch growing on the bottom layer
of your lawn. This machine shall be used for this purpose only.
• Dethatching is a surface operation. The spikes should only touch the upper surface. The maxi -
mum spike depth is 25 millimetres. If the setting is too deep, this increases the risk of quick
wear.
ELIET accepts no liability for damage resulting from improper spike settings.
• Never dethatch when the ground is frozen.
• It is recommended to work on a dry lawn. Wet lawns increase the risk of accidents; extra care
is necessary under these circumstances.
• If the lawn is too dehydrated after a period of drought, dethatching is not recommended. The
dust generated from the lawn would increase wear to the machine. In addition, dethatching
would have a negative effect on the lawn in this case.
