•
Cables should always be laid away from the appliance.
Protect the cables against excess temperatures, oil
and sharp edges.
•
Unplug the appliance when executing repairs,
maintenance and when the appliance is not used.
•
Works on electrical installation can only be executed
by electricians. Spare parts to be used only.
•
Clean place of work makes working easier.
•
Pay attention to what you are doing. Use common
sense when working.
•
Do not use the appliance near flammable liquids and
gases.
•

parts poses a great risk of injury.
•
Aerating on slopes should always take place from left
to the right, never up and down.
•
Never change the working height, i.e. height of wheels
when the engine is running.
Electrical safety
•
The appliance has been designed to be used with an
alternating current source only. Never try to use the
appliance with any other current source.
•
The appliance has double insulation. All outer metal parts
are therefore electrically insulated from the current source.
Double insulation represents higher electrical safety;
appliance grounding is therefore not necessary.
There might be short voltage failures in less powerful
electrical networks when the appliance is started. This may
influence working of other appliances, e.g. brightness
fluctuation of the lighting system. Such influences need not be
experienced if the network impedance is Zmax < 0.997
Ω
(more
information can be obtained from your local electrical energy
supplier if necessary).
Behaviour in case of emergency
First aid kit must always be available in the place of your work
in case of accident in accordance with DIN 13164. Material
taken out of the first aid kit needs to be supplemented right
away.
If help is needed, please provide the following details:
Place of accident
Accident nature
Number of injured persons
Injury type
Provide necessary first aid treatment corresponding to the injury
nature and seek qualified medical help as soon as possible.
Protect the injured person from other injuries and calm him/her
down.
Use as designated
The verticutter is only suitable to be used around the house and
in the garden and must not be used for industrial purposes. The
appliance can only be used as designated. Any other use is in
conflict with its purpose.
Residual risks and protective measures
Direct electrical contact
Defective cable or plug can cause life-threatening electric
shock.
Always have any defective cables or plugs replaced by a
professional. Use the appliance only with connection with a
safety switch against stray current (RCD).
Indirect electrical contact
Injuries by conductive parts at exposed electrical or
defective construction elements.
The appliance must always be unplugged for maintenance
purposes. To be used only with a safety switch against stray
current (RCD).
Inadequate local lighting
Insufficient lighting represents a high safety risk.
Always ensure sufficient lighting when working with the
appliance.
Disposal
