– Fill tank with fuel using a funnel up to max. lower edge of the filling nozzle.
– Replace tank cap and screw tight.
10 STARTING THE ENGINE (FIGURE S2 + D + E + Q2 )
Safety information!
For explanation of symbols, see the table
on page 3
Before starting the engine make sure that the cutter shaft/the device is in the
surface cutting position Z2 .
Start the engine from the right-hand side of the scarifier. Always place the scarifier on
a level area which is not covered with high grass (if the grass is too high it will block the
cutter shaft start-up and make starting the scarifier more difficult). When the engine is
started, the machine must not be tilted on end, if necessary it must be tilted by pressing
the guide bar down so that the cutting tool is pointing in the direction away from the
user, but only as far as absolutely necessary. As long as the device has not been
lowered to the ground again, both of your hands must be on the top part of the bar.
CAUTION
Hold the starter cable handle firmly when starting. The handle may otherwise
slip out of your hand. Risk of injury!
– Open the fuel tap (2) S2 .
– If the engine is cold , push the choke lever (3) on the engine to the “Choke”
position .
– Move the throttle control lever (4) backwards to position “Hare”. During engine
operation, the throttle control lever should remain in “Hare” position.
– To start the engine, pull the safety grip (5) on the top guide bar. During
operation, the safety grip must remain held in this position D .
– Slowly pull the starter cable (7) until resistance is felt, then pull it out rapidly,
– the engine begins to run, slowly recoil the cable E .
– Under certain circumstances the starting process must be repeated.
– After the engine has warmed up, push the choke lever (3) forwards into
operating position Q2 .
– In an operationally hot engine, push the choke lever (3) on the engine
forwards into operating position. Start the engine as described above.
– If the engine does not start running, then proceed as when starting
a cold engine.
11 SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE (FIGURE F + Y2 )
– Release the safety control bar (1) F . The engine switches off and the cutting
tool comes to standstill. Attention! The cutting tool runs for a while!
– Close the fuel tap (2) Y2 .
12 EMERGENCY STOPPING
Release the safety control bar.
– The cutting tool will stop. Attention! The cutting tool runs for a while!
– The engine will stop.
ATTENTION
Before every scarifying job, make sure that the engine stop safety control bar
is working perfectly:
– When the safety grip is released, the engine must switch off and the
cutting tool must come to a standstill (Caution! The cutting tool runs
for a while!).
If this is not the case, please consult your nearest authorised workshop.
13 ADJUSTING THE SCARIFYING DEPTH
Safety information!
For explanation of symbols, see the table on page 3
The scarifying depth must only be adjusted with the engine switched off!
To work with the scarifier, the scarifier lever is pushed forward into the “Scarify”
position T2 . This lowers the device with cutter shaft and the blades penetrate the turf.
The working depth depends on the blade wear, and must also be set taking into
account the relevant grass and ground conditions.
Always check and adjust the scarifying depth on a level area of lawn.
With the cutter shaft lowered, the blade should just be in contact with the turf. A working
depth of up to 3-5 mm is recommended. In the case of a well-tended lawn with soft
ground, the scarifying depth can be set slightly deeper. In case of a very mossy lawn
surface, the initial working depth should be slightly less.
Setting (figure V2 + T2 + Z2 )
Set the scarifying depth as follows:
– After loosening the counter nut, set the working depth on the adjusting screw V2
so that the blades of the lowered scarifier (hand lever forward) T2 penetrate
approx. 3 to 5 mm deep into the ground.
– Retighten the counter nut after the adjustment.
– To lift the device from the set working position, move the lever all the way to the
back to position “transporting”. This does not change the set scarifying depth Z2 !
After a few hours of operation, a readjustment of the scarifying depth becomes
necessary due to wear. The more intensively you use it, the more wear on the blades.
Hard or very dry soils accelerate the wear. In this case, proceed in the same manner
for the scarifying depth adjustment as described above.
14 SCARIFIER OPERATION
Safety information!
For explanation of symbols,
see the table on page 3
NOTE
To protect the cutter shaft, avoid tight curves and raise the cutter shaft
before turning.
Using the machine on slopes
ATTENTION
The device can be used on banks and slopes with a gradient of up to 46%
(25° angle). Any steeper slopes can lead to engine damage.
For safety reasons, however, we urgently recommend you do not exploit this
theoretical performance potential. Always make sure you have a firm stance.
Manually guided scarifiers should never be used for slopes with a gradient in
excess of 26% (15° angle of slope). Stability may be lost!
Checking the oil level
Check the oil level before scarifying (see the chapter Checking the oil level and filling
with oil ). The scarifier is also fitted with an oil level sensor. If the oil level is too low, the
engine is switched off. The oil level sensor does not replace regular checks by the user.
Never let the engine run with too little or too much oil. Irreparable damages could occur.
Checking operating safety
The scarifier is fitted with an engine stop device.
Before every scarifying job, make sure that the engine stop safety control bar is working
perfectly. When the safety grip is released, the engine and the cutting tool must come to
a standstill (Note! The cutting tool runs for a while!). If this is not the case, please
consult your nearest authorised workshop.
After release, the bar must always return to the position shown in the “Description of
components” diagram.
If this is not the case, it must be checked immediately by an authorised workshop.
Machine safety and protective devices must not be manipulated or disabled.
Make sure that all protective devices have been attached properly and are
not damaged.
To avoid danger, check the condition and tight fit of the cutter shaft before every
scarifying job (refer to the chapter “Cutter shaft care” for more de tails). Always have
work on the cutter shaft done by a specialist workshop. If the cutter shaft is assembled
incorrectly, parts can become loose, which can lead to serious injuries.
Also check device screws and nuts for a firm fit every 10 operating hours and tighten,
if necessary.
Make sure the spark plug connector is fitted tightly. Risk of electric shock. Never
remove the plug connector with the engine running. Risk of electric shock. Only remove
the plug connector if the engine has cooled down. Risk of burns.
If the cutter shaft becomes blocked e.g. by colliding with an obstacle or through foreign
objects, have an authorised workshop check whether any parts of the scarifier are
damaged or deformed. Always have any necessary repairs done by an authorised
workshop too.
If the machine starts to vibrate unusually heavily or to make unusual noises,
please have it checked immediately by an authorised workshop.
