performing maintenance
Always ensure that ventilation openings
are kept clear of debris.
Make sure that all the protective devices
are fitted and in good condition.
Do not modify the product in any way
as this may increase the risk of injury to
yourself or others.
CAUTION
The product may bounce upward and/or
jump forward if the tines strike extremely
hard packed soil, frozen ground, or buried
obstacles such as large stones, roots and
stumps.
CAUTION
Before moving the product from one area to
another switch off the motor and wait for the
tines to come to a complete stop. Be careful
not to let the tines touch the ground while
moving the product. The tines as well as the
product itself may be damaged even if the
motor is switched off.
OPERATING TIPS
To reduce the risk of injury from contact
with the moving parts or from thrown
objects, the operator must stand behind
the handlebar. Never stand to the side
or forward of the handlebars whilst the
product is in operation.
Always wear eye protection. Always wear
non-slip safety footwear when operating
the product.
Whilst the product will cut and help clear
underground vegetation and roots, the
tines could become tangled in heavy
vegetation or stubble above ground. Clear
the area to be cultivated with a brushcutter
or other similar means and prepare the
ground by removing any large debris (e.g.,
stones, bricks, and metal poles) from the
surface.
Keeping hands and feet away from the
tines, start the motor with the tines slightly
above the ground surface by pressing the
switch lock followed by the on/off switch.
Whilst securely holding the handlebars,
lower the tines onto the ground. The
product may try to pull itself forward at this
point depending upon the hardness of the
ground. Resist the pull of the product to go
forward, and the tines should start to bury
themselves into the ground. If they do not,
use a reverse-and-forward (about 20 cm is
sufficient) or a slight rocking-up-and-down
motion of the handlebar to assist the tines
to get to their working depth.
You may alter the depth in the ground of
the tines by moving the wheels closer to or
further from the tines. Once the tines are
in the ground to the depth required, slowly
move the product forward, letting the motor
do the work. If the tines strike some object
too hard to move or cut, the product may
raise its height as the tines try to pass over
the obstruction. Stop the product and allow
the tines to cease all movement before
attempting to investigate or remove the
obstruction.
If the ground to be cultivated is hard or dry,
it is better to water the ground, but don't
soak it completely and allow time for the
water to penetrate the ground and for the
excess to drain away before attempting to
cultivate.
TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
For storage, always disconnect from power
supply and wind cable.
Stop the product and allow it to cool down
before storing or transporting.

place that is inaccessible to children.
Keep away from corrosive agents such as
garden chemicals and de-icing salts. Do
not store outdoors.
Wipe the tines with oil or spray them with
silicone lubricant to prevent rusting. Beware
of sharp or damaged edges on tines.
Oil all visible moving parts. Do not remove
the motor cover.
For transportation, secure the product
against movement or falling to prevent
injury to persons or damage to the product.
