6.3 Speed controller (Fig. 10)
Turn the speed controller (Item 4) to set the
speed (1 = minimum / 6 = maximum) of the cutter
drum (Fig. 11/Item 19). This enables individual
adjustment to the area you want to clear. The
numbers 2 – 5 marked on the speed controller are
provided as extra indication of the set speed.
6.4 Clearing away snow
Read the safety instructions, "Safe operation of
manually driven snow shovels".
Each time before you use the machine, check the
following:
•
Are there any signs of damage to the safety
devices and the cutter drum? Are they
complete? Replace any damaged parts.
•
Are all screws securely fastened?
•
Do all moving parts move smoothly?
6.5 Adjusting the snow guide blades (Fig. 11)
Lift the adjustment lever (Item 15) for adjusting
the eject direction and turn it. By doing this you
adjust the snow guide blades (Item 18).
Let go of the adjustment lever and lock it in one of
the three possible positions +30° / 0° / -30° (right
/ center / left).
6.6 Setting the ejection range
After adjusting the snow guide blades you can
use the speed controller (see section 6.3) to
adjust the ejection range to your requirements.
6.7 Tips on clearing away snow properly
•
The battery operating time and therefore the
area in square feet that can be cleared with
a single battery charge is largely dependent
on the given snow conditions (e.g. powdery
snow, wet snow, height of snow ...) and the
user's walking speed. Frequently turning the
machine on and off during the clearance will
also reduce the area per charge performance.
Battery performance drops with the
temperature. It is recommended therefore to
fit room-temperature batteries in the battery
mount just before you begin with the clearing
work and to remove the batteries when you
have finished. If the battery operating time
(area performance) is still unsatisfactory,
despite the above measures, you can help
remedy the problem by using batteries of
higher capacity (Ah).
•
It is best to clear away the snow soon after it
has fallen and in short intervals before it gets
too high.

•
Lift the cutter drum a little off the snow before
you switch on the machine.
•
Push the machine forward at a suitable
walking pace to leave an area that is as clear
of snow as possible.
•
The angle at which you push the machine has
an influence on the ejection range and on the
height of snow remaining.
•
Clear away the snow with the wind at your
back and in overlapping runs.
•
In cases of very high snow, clear away layer
by layer from the top in several runs.
•
For large areas draw up a plan for clearing
away the snow without it being thrown back
into areas already cleared.
•
To prevent the moving parts of the machine
from freezing, allow the machine to continue
running for a few minutes after you have
finished your work. Then switch off the
machine, wait for all moving parts to come
to a standstill, take out the batteries, and
remove the snow and ice that has collected
on the machine.
7. Cleaning and maintenance
HAZARD!
Always take the batteries out of the equipment
before starting any cleaning work.
7.1 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 cleaning the machine
immediately each time after use. Remove ice,
snow and dirt from the air vents in the motor
housing, from the cutter drum and from all
other parts.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could
attack the plastic parts of the equipment.
Ensure that no water can seep into the
device. The penetration of water into an
electric tool increases the risk of an electric
shock.
•
Use a brush to remove deposits from safety
guards.
