Replacing the power cable
If the power cable of the device should be damaged it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or their after-sales service or an
equally qualified person to avoid any risks.
WARNING!
The prolonged utilization of a tool will subject the user to vibration
and shocks that could lead to Raynaud's syndrome or Carpal
tunnel syndrome. This condition reduces the ability of the hand to
sense and regulate temperature, causes numbness and a sensation
of heat and can lead to damage to the nervous system and the
circulatory system and to necrosis.
Not all factors that lead to Raynaud's syndrome are known but cold

14
water, smoking and illnesses that impact the blood vessels and the
circulatory system as well as severe or long-lasting exposure to
vibrations are known to be factors in the development of Raynaud's
syndrome. Observe the following in order to reduce the risk of
Raynaud's syndrome and Carpal tunnel syndrome:
• Wear gloves and keep your hands warm.
• Make sure the device is well maintained. A tool with loose
components or with damaged or worn-out dampers will have a
disposition towards increased vibrations.
• Always hold the handle firmly but do not clutch it constantly with
excessive force. Take breaks often.
All of the above precautions cannot exclude the risk of
Raynaud's syndrome or Carpal tunnel syndrome. Therefore,
with long-term or regular use it is advisable to keep a close
watch on the condition of your hands and fingers. Seek
medical attention immediately in the event of any of the above
symptoms appearing.

HINTS AND SUGGESTIONS
How to use the scarifier (using scarifying roller 10)
• By scarifying you remove the hardened surface, grass felt
and flat-growing weeds and the crusted over grassroots
are loosened up. The lawn will start to breath again and
assimilate the nourishing substances, oxygen and water.
This also prevents the establishing of bacteria in the lawn
felt during the wintertime.
• Cut the grass to a height of about 40 mm before
scarifying. The lawn must be dry when using the machine
The best time for an scarifying is any time during the
vegetative season, from end April through to September.
Scarify it at least once a year. We recommend using a
fertilizer straight after airing if you want a green carpet.

How to use the raker (using rake roller 11)
• By raking you remove the dead matter, moss and weed
which disfigures a lawn. The build up of dead grass
provides a mat of absorbent fibres which prevents water
gelling through to the ground
• Do not force your rake through grass that is longer than
75mm. The lawn must be dry when using the machine.
It's recommend that your raker is used at the beginning
and the end of each grass cutting season to give your
lawn a thorough raking. Your raker should also be used
after each mowing to remove any grass culling that may
be left by your mower.
Switching On / Off (Fig. 10 and 11)
• This Machine is provided with an electric safety switch
against accidental starts. Push the safety lock-off button
(2a) on the switchbox, then pull the switch lever (2b)
towards the handle (Fig. 11). After the tool has been
switched on, you do not have to hold the switchon lock
(2a) any longer.
• The top handle is equipped with a cord strain relief (3)
which holds the cable.
Danger!
After motor has been switched off, the roller
continues to rotate for a few seconds - therefore,
do not put your hands under the appliance
straight away.

WARNING! Extensive vibration of the product during op-
eration is an indication of damage! The product should be
promptly inspected and repaired!
1. Check the product, its power cord and plug as well as
accessories for damage before each use. Do not use the
product if it is damaged or shows wear
2. Double check that accessories are properly fixed.
3. Push the product forward by its handle. Keep the handle
dry to ensure safe support.
4. Ensure that the air vents are always unobstructed and
clear. Clean them if necessary with a soft brush Blocked
air vents may lead to overheating and damage the
product.
5. Switch the product off immediately if you are disturbed
while working by other people entering the working area.
Always let the product come to complete stop before
putting it down.
6. Do not overwork yourself. Take regular breaks to ensure
you can concentrate on the work and have full control
over the product.
7. Mow the lawn before working and fertilise afterwards
8. Make sure that the lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wire or
other objects that could damage the product o「its motor.
9. Select the suitable cutting depth for the actual grass
height.
10. Do not work with this product on a wet lawn because it
tends to stick to the underbody of the product, preventing
the proper discharge of collected material, and it could
also cause you to slip and fall.
11. Slowly push the product forward. Move the product at
appropriate speed. Do not move it too fast to prevent the
discharge opening from getting blocked and engine from
useless overloading.
12. Work in slight overlapping rows. The most effective
pattern for scarifying/raking lawns is straight lines along
one of the sides. This will keep the rows even and ensures
that all the lawn is scarified/raked without missing any
spots. (See Fig. 9)
13. Circle around flower beds. When reaching a flower bed
in the middle of the lawn, make a row or two around the
circumference of the bed
14. Pay special attention when changing direction.
15. Never tilt or transport appliance with running motor
16. Never leave the appliance unattended.
17. When leaving, disconnect the appliance from the power
supply.
