Fitting the debris box (Fig. 5)
Lift the ejector flap (Fig. 5 / Item 5) with one hand and
attach the debris box (Fig. 5/Item 6) to the handle
from above using your other hand.
Important: Before you attach the debris box you
must ensure that the engine is switched off and the
roller is not rotating.
7. Starting up
Important!
The engine does not come with oil in it.
Therefore, ensure that you add oil before starting
it up. The oil level in the engine must be checked
each time before mowing. (see Checking the oil
level).
Starting the equipment (Fig. 6 – 7)
In order to avoid any unintentional start-ups of the
engine, it comes equipped with an engine brake (Fig.
6/Item 1) which must be pressed at all times whilst
the device is in use, otherwise the engine will stop.
Important: When the engine brake lever is released
it must return to its initial position and the engine
must stop. If this is not the case, do not use the
equipment again.
1. Open the petrol cock (Fig. 7 / Item B). Set the
cock to "ON" for this purpose.
2. Set the choke lever (Fig. 7/Item C) to the
"Choke" position.
3. Move the throttle lever (Fig. 1 / Item 7) to the
center position.
4. Press the engine brake lever (Fig. 6 / Item 1) and
pull the starter cable (Fig. 7 / Item A) forcefully
until the engine starts.
5. Allow the engine to warm up briefly and then set
the choke lever (Fig. 7 / Item B) to the "RUN"
Position.
6. The speed of the cutter unit can be controlled
using the throttle lever (Fig. 6 / Item 7) (tortoise =
slow / rabbit = fast).
Important: Always pull the starter cable slowly until
you feel the initial resistance before you then pull it
quickly to start the engine. Do not allow the starter
cable to whip back of its own accord.
Important: The scarifier roller begins to rotate as
soon as the engine is started.

Important! Never open the ejector flap when the
motor is running. A rotating cutting unit can cause
injuries.
Always fasten the ejector flap carefully. The flap flips
back to the "Closed" position by the tension springs!
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the
long handles) is maintained between the user and
the housing. Be especially careful when scarifying
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.
