and changing direction on slopes and inclines.
Maintain a solid footing and wear sturdy, non-slip
footwear and long trousers. Always scarify along the
incline (not up and down).
For safety reasons, the scarifier may not be used to
scarify inclines whose gradient exceeds 15 degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling the
scarifier (tripping hazard)!
Adjusting the working depth (Fig. 8)
To set the working depth, push the lever for setting
the depth (Fig. 8 / Item 4) gently away from the
device, set the required depth and then lock the lever
back into position.
Important. For transport move the lever for setting
the depth to the highest position.
Tips for proper working
It is recommended that you overlap scarifying paths
a little. Try to scarify in straight lines for a nice, clean
look. Insodoing, the aeration swaths should always
overlap each other by a few centimeters in order to
avoid bare strips.
As soon as grass clippings start to trail the scarifier, it
is time to empty the grass basket.
Important! Before taking off the grass basket, switch
off the motor and wait until the roller has come to a
stop.
To remove the grass basket, lift up the ejector flap
with one hand, while unhooking the basket with the
other.
How frequently you should scarify your lawn is
determined primarily by the speed at which the grass
grows and the hardness of the soil.
Keep the underside of the equipment clean and
remove soil and grass build-up. Deposits make it
more difficult to start the aerator and decrease the
quality of the scarifying.
Always scarify along inclines (not up and down).
Switch off the motor before doing any checks on the
roller.
Important!
The roller rotates for a few seconds after the motor is
switched off. Never attempt to stop the roller. In the
event that the rotating roller strikes an object,
immediately switch off the equipment and wait for the
roller to come to a complete stop. Then inspect the
condition of the roller. Replace any parts that are
damaged.

7. Cleaning, maintenance, storage,
transport and ordering of spare
parts
Important:
Never work on or touch conducting parts on the
ignition unit with the engine running. Always pull the
spark plug boot from the spark plug before starting
any work of care or maintenance. Never perform any
work on the machine while it is running. Any work not
described in these Operating Instructions must be
performed by an authorized service workshop only.
7.1 Cleaning
The scarifier should be cleaned thoroughly every time
after it has been used. This particularly applies to its
underside and the blades. To do so tip the scarifier
slightly on to its side and remove the dirt.
Important. Before you tip the equipment, the petrol
tank must be emptied to prevent petrol leaking out.
Ideally you should use a conventional petrol
extraction pump for this purpose.
7.2 Servicing
Checking the oil level
Set the equipment down on a flat, level surface.
Unscrew the oil dipstick by turning it anti-clockwise.
The oil level must be as shown in Figure 10.
Important: Never run the engine with no or too little
oil. This can cause serious damage to the engine.
Changing the oil
Change the engine oil every year before the start
of the season (in addition to the information in the
petrol service manual) when the engine is warm.
Use only recommended engine oil.
Place a suitable oil drip tray beneath the oil drain
screw.
Remove the oil filler screw (Fig. 9 / Item A).
Undo the oil drain screw (Fig. 9 / Item B) and
drain the oil into a suitable container.
Close the drain screw again when all the used oil
has been drained.
Pour engine oil into the equipment as shown in
Figure 10.
Dispose of the used oil in accordance with
applicable regulations.
Care and adjustment of the cables
Oil the cables at regular intervals and check that they
move easily.
