  • Page 24: Intended Use

    Fig. 10 4. Connect the plug of extension cord into a suitable socket. WARNING! Check the voltage! The voltage must comply with the information on the rating label! If using an extension cord it must be suitable for outdoor use with sockets protected against water splashing. Ensure the extension cord is of the proper size and type for your product: • 1.5 mm for up to 60 m in length. • 2.5 mm for up to 100 m in length. 5. Your machine is now ready to be used. EN Functions & Settings Intended use This 2 in 1 Raker & Scarifier is designated with a rated input of 1800 Watts. Depending on the fitted attachment this machine is either intended for scarifying and removing thatch from lawns or for raking in domestic and hobby gardens. When used as a scarifier with scarifier drum installed, this machine works by scratching through and between the grass with specially adapted prongs that collect and remove any unwanted parts from the lawn whilst leaving the grass stalk intact. At the same time the machine scarifies the ground resulting in a better airing. When used as a raker with raker drum installed, the fine needles will scratch the surface of the lawn while simultaneously picking light debris for better oxygen absorption, airing and draining. This machine is not to be used in wet weather conditions and may not be used to mow grass or for shredding leaves. For safety reasons it is essential to read the entire instruction manual before first operation and to observe all the instructions therein. This machine is intended for private domestic use only, not for any commercial trade use. It must not be used for any purposes other than those described. 5063022106100_MNL_IN_V04.indd 24 5063022106100_MNL_IN_V04.indd 24 4/12/2023 11:24:36 PM 4/12/2023 11:24:36 PM...
  • Page 25: Handle Height Adjustment

    NOTE: Thatch is a build-up of organic materials which can include dead grass or leaves, stems, rhizomes and overcrowded grass roots as well as lateral weed growth. It stifles the growth and health of the lawn. Removing thatch encourages the lawn to thicken up and makes it stronger and less susceptible to disease. Reducing the thatch level increases the levels of water, air and nutrients that can get through to the root zone of the grass plants. Handle height adjustment WARNING! Switch the machine off and wait that the cutting tool has come to a complete stop before adjusting the handle height ! Disconnect the plug from the power supply before adjusting the handle height! To ensure safe operation the height adjustment of the handle bar is limited to the indicated positions! Do not attempt to adjust any other height! Adjust the handle assembly to a suitable height according to your needs. There are two handle heights to choose. 1. Unfold and loosen the clamp levers (5) anticlockwise on both sides of the lower handle bar (7), but do not remove them (Fig. 11, step 1). 2. Hold and swing the handle assembly gently to the desired position by aligning the indicator (7b) with the indication line (8a) of handle support (8) (Fig. 11, step 2). Ensure the handle assembly is assembled at the same height level on both sides. 3. Secure the handle assembly by folding up the clamp lever (5) towards the lower handle bar (7). If clamp lever (5) cannot be folded, loosen it and fold again. If it is too loose, tighten it by turning the clamp lever (5) clockwise (Fig. 11, step 3).

Always attach the Grass catcher (17) when using the machine as described in the “Assembly -> Grass catcher” section. 2. Always carry the Grass catcher (17) by its carry handle (17a). Emptying WARNING: Switch the motor off and wait until the cutting tool has come to a complete stop before removing the Grass catcher (17)! Disconnect the plug from the power supply before emptying the Grass catcher Empty the Grass catcher (17) frequently during use. Do not wait until it is completely full. We recommend emptying when it is half full. NOTE: A full Grass catcher (17) will reduce the performance of this machine. 1. Lift the rear deflector guard (16) and hold it in place. 2. Lift the Grass catcher hooks (17d) off the supports (21 a) and remove the Grass catcher (17). 3. Remove the grass clippings from the rear discharge opening into the Grass catcher (17). Use a proper tool such as a brush. WARNING! Never use your hands or feet to remove grass clippings! 4. Remove the Grass catcher (17) by its carry handle (17a). 5. Empty the grass clippings onto a compost heap (17a). 6. Re-fit the Grass catcher (17) onto the machine and ensure the Grass catcher hooks (17d) to stay correctly onto the supports as described in the “Assembly - Grass catcher” section. Working depth adjustment WARNING! Switch the motor off and wait that the cutting tool has come to a complete stop before adjusting the working depth! Disconnect the plug from the power supply before adjusting the cutting depth! Adjust the working depth according to the needs of your lawn. The suitable depth depends on the kind of lawn and the actual height of the grass. 1. Push the depth adjustment lever (12) away from the front wheel (13) (Fig. 12, step 1), then move it forward or backward to the desired working depth (Fig. 12, step 2).

    Scarifying 1. Ensure that the scarifier drum (20) and Grass catcher (17) are correctly assembled. 2. Consider the weather when scarifying. Scarify the lawn with an increased depth setting during spring time between April and May, as the lawn is better able to recover during this season. During a wet summer scarify again in late summer with a decreased depth setting. Do not scarify during periods of hot weather condition. During a dry rainless summer do not scarify a second time in autumn. 3. Mow the lawn before scarifying and fertilise afterwards. 4. Make sure that the lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wire or other objects that could damage the product or its motor. 5. Do not scarify a wet lawn because it tends to stick to the underbody of the product, preventing the proper discharge of collected material, and it could also cause you to slip and fall. 6. Slowly push the product forward. 7. Scarify in slight overlapping rows. The most effective pattern for scarifying lawns is straight lines along one of the sides. This will keep the rows even and ensures that all the lawn is scarified without missing any spots (Fig. 15). Fig. 15 8. Circle around flower beds. When reaching a flower bed in the middle of the lawn, make a row or two around the circumference of the bed. 9. Pay special attention when changing direction. 10. Empty the Grass catcher (17) regularly. WARNING! If the machine strikes a foreign object stop immediately! Let the machine cool down and thoroughly inspect the machine for damage! Have any damage repaired before restarting! Extensive vibration of the machine during operation is an indication of damage! Switch off the motor immediately. The machine should be promptly inspected and repaired! Raking In order that a healthy lawn can develop in the spring, it is necessary for greater amounts of air to penetrate the area around the roots of the grass. We recommend rake the lawn every 4 - 6 weeks depending on the state of your lawn.
