GENERAL OPERATION
PRACTICE
· Read this owner’s guide carefully in its entirety before attempting to assemble this machine. Read,
understand, and follow all instructions on the machine and in the manuals before operation. Be
completely familiar with the controls and the proper use of this machine before operating it. Keep
this manual in a safe place for future and regular reference and for ordering replacement parts.
· Your scarier is a precision piece of power equipment, not a plaything. Therefore,
exercise extreme caution at all times. Your scarier has been designed for removing the dead thatch
and moss from lawns and other grassed areas.
· Never allow children under 14 years old to operate a scarier . Children 14 years old and over
should only operate scarier under close parental supervision. Only responsible individuals who
are familiar with these rules of safe operation should be allowed to use your scarier.
· Keep the area of operation clear of all persons, particularly small children and pets. Stop engine
when they are in the vicinity of your scarier to help prevent blade contact or thrown object injury.
Although the area of operation should be completely cleared of foreign objects, an object may
have been overlooked and could be accidentally thrown by the scarier in any direction and cause
serious personal injury to the operator or any others allowed in the area.
GENERAL OPERATION
PREPARE
· Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be used. Remove all stones, sticks, wire,
bones, toys and other foreign objects which could be picked up and thrown by the scarifer in any
direction and cause serious personal injury to the operator or any others allowed in the area. Plan
your mowing pattern to avoid discharge of material toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders and the
likes. To help avoid a thrown objects injury, keep children, bystanders and helpers at least 75 feet
away from the scarier while it is in operation.
· Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during operation or while performing an adjustment
or repair, to protect eyes from foreign objects that may be thrown from the machine in any direction.
· Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and close-tting slacks and shirts. Shirts and pants that
cover the arms and legs and steel-toed shoes are recommended. Do not wear loose tting clothes
or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts. Never operate a scarifer in bare feet, sandals,
slippery or light weight (e.g. canvas) shoes.
