required. Depending on the properties of the surface, it may be necessary to hold the
machine back against the working direction. Avoid moving in tight curves.
On very mossy and weedy lawns, it is advisable to apply the scarifier a second time, at
right-angles to the first working direction. When using the machine without a grass
collector, remove the loose grass from the lawn before the second run. Loose grass
lying on the lawn will have an adverse effect on the result, put an additional strain on
the machine and make the work unnecessarily difficult for the user (stronger pushing
forces).
Loose materials can best be removed by vacuuming with a TurboStar lawn mower or
manual raking.
16 SERVICE INTERVALS
IMPORTANT
Avoid damage! Under extreme or unusual conditions, shorter servicing intervals
than the ones specified below may be necessary. If you establish any problems,
please contact an authorised workshop.
Carry out routine servicing on the machine in line with the following servicing intervals.
Work must be carried out at the following servicing intervals in addition to the
maintenance work listed in these operating instructions.
Before initial use
• Check all screw connections for a tight fit.
• Check the cutter blade and have an authorised workshop tighten it if necessary.
• Check whether the safety control bar is working properly.
• Check that all protective devices have been attached properly and are not
damaged.
Before every operation
• Check the lawn area and remove any objects.
• Check the area of the boundary wires (if an automatic mower is being used for
lawn care).
• Check the condition and firm fit of the blades and have them replaced or tightened
by an authorised workshop if necessary.
• Check whether the safety control bar is working properly.
• Check that all protective devices have been attached properly and are not
damaged.
• Check grass collecting equipment for wear or loss of functionality.
• Check the upper part of the bar (insulation) for damage.
• Check the connection cable for damage and ageing.
Every 10 operating hours
• Check all screw connections for a tight fit.
• Check the blade shaft for wear and a tight fit.
After every operation
• Clean the scarifier.
• Check the blades for damage and wear.
During annual servicing
• Have the area under the belt cover cleaned.
17 CARE AND SERVICING OF YOUR SCARIFIER
Regular care is the best way to guarantee a long service life and problem-free
operation. Insufficient equipment maintenance will lead to safety-related faults!
Only use original spare parts because only those guarantee safety and quality!
Safety instruction!

Cleaning (Illustration N3 )
Remove all dirt and grass directly after scarifying. Turn the machine over onto its side
and use a brush or cloth to clean it.
The air slits for the cooling of the electric motor (1) must be free from dirt and grass
cuttings.
IMPORTANT
Never spray the machine with water since this could damage the electrical
system.
Storage
Always keep the machine in a clean condition in a closed, dry room out of reach of
children. Always allow the engine to cool down before you store the machine in a
closed room.
Folding the guide tube
– To save storage space, loosen the two wing nuts such that the top guide tube can
be folded down towards the engine.
– In doing so, do not kink nor squeeze the cable and throttle cable.
CAUTION
When folding the bar for transport and storage, the bar may fold over
unintentionally when the wing nuts are released. In addition, beware of potential
squashing spots between the bottom and top parts of the bar. This may result in
risk of injury!
IMPORTANT
Make sure that the cables are not pinched, squeezed, twisted or overstretched
when the handlebars are folded apart or collapsed! Always run the cables along
the outside of the bar connection. A damaged cable may result in a technical
defect of the equipment.
IMPORTANT
Make sure the throttle cables are not kinked or jammed when lifting the
handlebars.
Transporting and securing the equipment (Illustration N )
– If the equipment has to be carried, do not hold the ejection flap. Hold the carrying
handle at the front and the cross tube of the bottom guide bar at the back (see
Figure
N ).
Please take the weight of the machine into consideration before lifting it (see
Technical Data). Lifting large weights can result in health problems.
We recommend that two people should always lift or carry the equipment.
– Transport the unit upright on all 4 wheels to avoid damage to the equipment and
personal injury.
– Park the means of transport on level ground so that the equipment cannot roll
away before it is secured.
– Remove the collecting bag and secure it separately during transport
– Secure the equipment with approved load-securing devices (e.g. tie-down straps
with clamping elements) on or inside the vehicle. Tie-down straps are belt bands
made of synthetic fibres. Every tie-down strap is marked with a label. The label
contains important details for application. The information on this label must be
heeded when using the tie-down strap.
– For loaded goods that can roll, we recommend using direct strapping with four
lashing straps. Secure the wheels of the equipment in such a way that it does not
move during transportation.
NOTE
Do not tighten the belts too firmly. Fixing the equipment too firmly can cause
damage.
Maintenance of the blade shaft
Before using the machine, always check the condition and firm seating of the blades.
Worn or damaged blades should be replaced immediately.
WARNING
Always have replacement of the blade shaft carried out by an authorized
workshop, since an insulation protection test to DIN EN 60335 must be carried
out after repair and maintenance work to insulation components (e.g. blade shaft,
attachment fittings).
An incorrectly assembled blade shaft can also cause parts to become detached,
possibly leading to serious injury.
– The complete cutter blade set must be replaced if the wear limit (round marking on
the blade) has been reached and/or readjustment of scarifying depth is no longer
possible.
– Only use genuine scarifying cutter blades for replacement. Non-equivalent spare
parts can damage the machine and are a safety hazard.
– Replacement scarifying cutter blades must be marked permanently with the name
and/or company logo of the manufacturer or supplier and the part number.
Changing the drive belt
For safety reasons, expressed attention is drawn to the fact that the drive belt must only
be replaced by an original replacement part.
Always have replacement of the drive belt carried out by an authorized specialist
workshop.
