10. Cleaning and maintenance
Danger!
Always pull out the mains power plug before starting
any cleaning work.
Cleaning
• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of
the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into
the device. The ingress of water into an electric tool
increases the risk of an electric shock.
Carbon brushes
In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualified electrician.
Danger!
The carbon brushes should not be replaced
by anyone but a qualified electrician.
Maintenance
• A worn out or damaged cutting unit should be
replaced by an authorised expert.
• Take care that all fastening elements (screws, nuts,
etc.) are firmly tightened, so that you can work
safely with the scarifier.
•
Store the scarifier in a dry place.
• For longer life, all screw-fastened parts, such
as wheels and axles should be cleaned and
subsequently oiled.
•
Regular servicing of the scarifier not only secures
longer endurance and performance, but also
contributes to an accurate and simple scarification
of your lawn.
To remove the grass basket, lift up the ejector flap
with one hand, while unhooking the basket with the
other.
How frequently you should scarify your lawn is
determined primarily by the speed at which the
grass grows and the hardness of the soil. Keep the
underside of the equipment clean and remove soil
and grass build-up. Deposits make it more difficult
to start the aerator and decrease the quality of the
scarifying. Always scarify along inclines (not up and
down). Switch off the motor before doing any checks
on the roller.
Danger!
The roller rotates for a few seconds after the motor
is switched off . Never attempt to stop the roller. In
the event that the rotating roller strikes an object,
immediately switch off the equipment and wait for the
roller to come to a complete stop.
Then inspect the condition of the roller. Replace any
parts that are damaged. Lay the power cable on the
ground in loops in front of the power outlet. Scarify
away from the power outlet and cable, making sure
that the power cable always trails in the already
scarified grass so that the equipment does not travel
over the cable.
9.
Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies
with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer‘s mains connection as well as
the extension cable used must also comply with
these regulations.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is
often damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been
improperly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the
wall outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing.
Such damaged electrical connection cables must not
be used and are life-threatening due to the insulation
damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does
not hang on the power network during the inspection.
Electrical connection cables must comply with
the applicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use
connection cables with the marking „H05VV-F“.
