INTRODUCTION
The machine is available in two designs:
1. Sacrifier (fig. 1)
The rotors are fitted with blades (KOVA 60245) which make parallel cuts in the
ground. The cuts allow water, air and nourishment to penetrate to the grass roots.
2. Lawn rake (fig. 2)
The rotors are fitted with independent, suspended heads (KOVA 60212) that rake up
moss and dead grass from the lawn.
USING THE MACHINE
BEFORE STARTING
w
Loosen the oil plug (fig. 3D) and check the oil level in the engine's crankcase.
The oil, at the right level, just reaches the edge of the hole. If necessary top up the
oil using SAE 10W-30.
w
Fill the fuel tank with unleaded petrol. Do not mix oil with the petrol.
NOTE! Bear in mind that normal unleaded petrol is perishable, do not buy more fuel
than you can use within 30 days.
Only fill the machine with fuel outdoors and do not smoke while filling. Fill before
starting the engine. Never remove the fuel cap or fill while the engine is running or
still warm.
START
1. Move the stop control to the "ON" position (fig. 4). Move the choke lever to the "CHOKE"
position.
2. Note. A warm engine requires no (little) choke.
3. Grip the starter handle and pull slowly until the starter unit engages.
4. Start the engine by swiftly pulling the starter handle.
5. When the engine starts, open the choke gradually.
