8. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Always pull out the mains power plug before star-
ting any cleaning work.
8.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could at-
tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu-
re that no water can seep into the device. The
ingress of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.

8.2 Carbon brushes

In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualifi ed electrician.
Danger! The carbon brushes should not be rep
laced by anyone but a qualifi ed electrician.
8.3 Maintenance
•
A worn out or damaged cutting unit should be
replaced by an authorised expert (see adress
on the warranty certificate).
•
Take care that all fastening elements (screws,
nuts, etc.) are firmly tightened, so that you
can work safely with the scarifier.
•
Store the scarifier in a dry place.
•
For longer life, all screw-fastened parts, such
as wheels and axles should be cleaned and
subsequently oiled.
•
Regular servicing of the scarifier not only
secures longer endurance and performance,
but also contributes to an accurate and simp-
le scarification of your lawn.
•
At the end of the season, carry out a general
check of the scarifier, and remove all residue
collected. Before the start of every season, it
is absolutely necessary to check the state of
the scarifier. Contact our Customer Service
(see address on the warranty certificate) if
repair work is necessary.

8.4 Changing the roller (see Figures 12-16)
Be sure to wear work gloves!
Only replace the roller with a genuine Einhell rol-
ler, as this will ensure top performance and safety
under all conditions.
Remove the two socket head screws (Fig. 12/
Item A). Lift the roller on this side and pull out in
the direction of the arrow (Fig. 13). Pull the holder
(Fig. 14/Item A) off the roller used before and then
fi t it to the roller to be used now. Slide the new
roller in the direction of the arrow (Fig. 16) onto
the square-ended drive (Fig. 15/Item A) and press
into the holder (Fig. 16). Use the two socket head
screws (Fig. 15/Item A) to secure the roller again.
Apply grease to the square-ended drive from time
to time so that the rollers can be changed easily.
