IEGB The collection bag is recommended for operation with the air roller

1. Pull the collection bag over the rods.

2. Put the plastic straps of the collection

bag over the collection bag rods and clip into the plastic straps. Mounting the collection bag on the implement:

rods into the socket in the implement case.

5. Release the impact protector so that it

holds the collection bag (12) in its posi- tion. Removing and emptying the collec- tion bag:

6. Lift the impact protector (13) and take

out the collection bag (12). Operation Please observe local regulations concerning noise protection. Setting the working posi- tions The implement has 5 principal position settings: +10 mm : Transport position This position sets the maximum safety spacing between the tool and the oor. -3 mm : Working position Set this position when working with a new implement. -3 to -12 mm : Readjustment positions The working position can be lowered with increased knife and sprung tine wear. Wear can be identied from an increas- ingly poor result. The readjusting depth amounts to approx. 3 mm per setting. When the implement is deliv- ered it is in the Transport Position (+10mm) setting.

1. The implement must be switched off to

set the working position.

2. Adjust the depth adjustment lever

11) and allow it to lock into place

in the desired position. Selection of a readjustment position without the corresponding wear can overload the motor and dam- age the cylinder. Inserting/removing the rechargeable battery Switch off the device, pull the igni- tion key ( 21) and wait for the drum to come to a stop.

1. To remove the battery (19) from the de-

vice, press the release button (20) on the battery and pull the battery out.

2. To insert the battery (19), push the bat-

tery along the guide rail into the de- vice. You will hear it click into place.32 GB IE Switching on and off Two batteries are required to operate this product. Before switching on the im- plement ensure that it is not in contact with any objects. Keep your feet and hands well away from the cylinder and the ejector opening. Danger of injury!

1. Place the device on a level piece of

The cylinder con- tinues to run for a brief pe- riod after the implement has been switched off. Do not tilt or carry the implement while the motor is still running and do not touch the cylinder while it is still rotating. Danger of injury! Working with the implement To maintain a well cared-for lawn it should be aerated every 4 to 6 weeks. Verticuting is a more intensive intervention than aerating and should only be carried out once a year, the best time being in spring after the lawn has been mown for the rst time. When working on slopes always proceed across the slope. Be particularly careful when walking backwards and pulling the implement. Danger of stumbling! Switch off the device after doing any work and when transporting the device, remove the batteries from the device and wait for the drum to come to a stop. The shorter the grass, the better the lawn can be treated. Furthermore, the implement is less stressed and the service life of the cylinder is prolonged.

• The implement can be operated with or without the collection bag. We recommend working with the col- lection bag for aeration. We recom- mend working without the collection bag for scarifying.

• Mow the lawn to the required grass height.

• Do not use the scarier in long grass. It may otherwise wind around the scari- er blade and result in damage to the equipment.33 IEGB

• Select the appropriate working or readjustment position (in the event of cylinder wear) so that the implement is not overloaded.

• Guide the implement at a walking pace down lanes that are as straight as possible. To ensure uninterrupted aerating or verticuting the individual lanes should always overlap by a few centimetres. Dwelling too long at the same place while the implement is run- ning can damage the grass sward.

• Always clean the implement after each use (see “Cleaning/Maintenance”).

• After having treated lawns with dense moss growth, it is advisable to reseed the lawn so that it can regenerate itself quicker. Transport

• Adjust the transport position (+10 mm) setting (see “Setting the Working Position”) when transporting the imple- ment.

• Lift the implement to transport it over steps and sensitive surfaces (e.g. tiles). Use the handle (

9). Cleaning/maintenance Work that has not been de- scribed in these Instructions must be carried out by a ser- vicing agency authorised by us. Only use original parts. Wear gloves when handling the cylinder. Switch off the device before any maintenance or cleaning work, pull the ignition key ( 21), remove the batteries ( 19) from the device and wait for the drum ( 16/17) to come to a stop. Warning! Risk of injury by dangerous moving parts! General cleaning and maintenance work Do not jet water onto the implement and do not clean itunderowingwater.This would result in the danger of an electric shock and the im- plement could be damaged.

• When work has nished remove plant residues adhering to the wheels, inside the ventilation opening, the grass ejec- tor opening and the cylinder. Do not use hard or pointed objects for this purpose as they could damage the im- plement.

• Completely empty the collection bag.

General Safety Directions Caution! When using power tools, observe the fol- lowing basic safety measures for the prevention of electric shocks and the risk of injury and re. Please read all these instruc- tions before using this electric tool and please keep the safety instructions. Careful handling and use of battery devices a) Charge the batteries only in chargers that are recommended by the manufacturer. Risk of re if a charger that is suitable for a specic type of battery is used with other batteries. b) In the power tools, use only the batteries designed for the pur- pose. The use of other batteries may result in injuries and risk of re. c) Keep the unused battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other small metal objects, which could cause bridging of the contacts. A short circuit between the bat- tery contacts may cause burns or re. d) If used incorrectly, liquid may leak from the battery. Avoid contact with this. In the event of accidental contact, rinse off with water. If the liquid gets into eyes, seek medical assistance. Leaking battery uid may cause skin irritations or burns. e) Do not use damaged or altered batteries. Damaged or altered batteries can be unpredictable and lead to re, explosion or risk of injury. f) Do not expose batteries to re or elevated temperatures. Fire or temperatures over 130°C can cause an explosion. g) Follow all instructions for charging and never charge the battery or the battery-powered tool outside the temperature range stated in the operating instructions. Incorrect charging or charging outside the permit- ted temperature range may de- stroy the battery and increase the risk of re. Service

• Never repair damaged batter- ies. All battery repairs should be carried out by the manufac- turer or authorised customer service centres only. Special safety directions for battery-operated tools a) Ensure that the device is switched off before inserting the battery. Inserting a bat- tery into a power tool that is switched on may result in ac- cidents. b) Recharge the batteries indoors only because the battery charger is designed for indoor use only. c) To reduce the electric shock hazard, unplug the battery charger from the mains before cleaning the charger.IEGB

d) Do not subject the battery to strong sunlight over long pe- riods and do not leave it on a heater. Heat damages the battery and there is a risk of explosion. e) Allow a hot battery to cool be- fore charging. f) Do not open up the battery and avoid mechanical damage to the battery. Risk of short circuit and fumes may be emitted that irritate the respiratory tract. Ensure fresh air and seek medi- cal assistance in the event of discomfort. g) Do not use non-rechargeable batteries! Correct handling of the battery charger
