Assembly

Please follow the steps in figures 2-5:

1. Mount lower handlebar with 4 bolts on the console. After that mount the upper handlebar as shown on Fig. 2A
2. Attach the clutch handle on the handlebar, as shown on Fig. 2B.
3. Mount the wheels with the bolts shown on Fig. 3A. The spacer needs to be between the wheel and the console.
4. Mount the engine protection cover with the 13 mm bolts shown on fig. 3B.
5. Attach the brushes using the bolts and lock washers as shown on Fig. 4

Mounting the protection frame:

1. Attach the transparent rubber covers to the frame with bolts. See Fig. 5.
2. Mount the frame on the machine, as shown on Fig. 6.

Fill the motor with engine oil. See changing the oil section for more details.

Clothing

When using the machine, wear close-fitting work clothes, hard-wearing work gloves, safety goggles, ear defenders and non-slip boots with steel toecaps.

Safety zone

While the machine is being operated and the motor is running, do not leave the operation zone marked with arrows on Fig. 9. If it is necessary to leave the operation zone, first stop the engine.

Starting and stopping the engine

Always check the oil level prior to use!

On engines with dipstick the oil level must always be between the min. and max. On engines without dipstick the oil must be visible to the edge on filler hole, when the engine is horizontal position. Always use SAE-30 oil. Use only unleaded 95 octane gasoline. Never over-fill the gas tank.

Start

1. Pump the primer bulb 3-6 times. See Fig. 8B.
2. Set the switch on engine to "l". See Fig. 7.
3. Pull the start cord to start the engine. See Fig. 8A. Always feed the start cord back into the engine by hand.
4. Activate the brush activation handle

Stop

1. Release the brush activation handle
2. Set the switch on engine to "O". See Fig. 7.

Vibrations may travel up into the handle during use. We therefore recommend taking a break, every 2 hours.

Operating the machine

A Remove all foreign objects from the work area before using the machine. Stones, glass, branches and similar items may damage the machine. Also check the bolts are tightened.
Start the motor as per the instructions above. Stand clear of the machine's moving parts.
Never attempt to move the machine in any way other than intended for normal use while the motor is running.

KEEP A SAFETY DISTANCE OF 15 METERS.

The machine can work on all types of flat surfaces and remove weeds between tiles or edges.

Note that the brushes may sweep stones or other objects away at high speed, so do not drive close to cars and other items that could be damaged.

Brushes can scratch and damage some tiles. Therefore, run a small test before using the machine.

Always have the protection frame attached during use.

Adjustment of the height

Follow the adjustment procedure as shown in Fig. 10+11.

It is possible to adjust the height on the brush head down in several positions as the brushes get worn.

To adjust the height, you have to loosen the two 4 mm allen screws shown in Fig. 10. Then you can adjust the brush head up and down. Tighten both screws again once the wanted height is chosen.

Make sure to adjust the protection frame upwards too as the brushes get worn and when the brush head is adjusted down. Or else the rubber cover will be damaged. See Fig. 11.

Cleaning

The machine should be cleaned after use. Use a garden hose to wash off soil and dirt. The chassis number should only be cleaned with a damp cloth to avoid unnecessary wear. Avoid using a high-pressure washer during cleaning.

Changing the oil

The oil should initially be changed after the first 5 hours of use, and thereafter once per year. Use an oil extractor kit.

1. Suck the oil up through the oil filler hole using the syringe. Use the hose to reach the sump.

2. Transfer the used oil to the container.

3. Fill the engine with new SAE-30 oil.

4. Check the oil level using the dipstick.

Remember to dispose of used oil in a safe way.

Oil and oil extractor kit are not included

Storage

• If the machine is likely to be stored unused for prolonged periods, follow the instructions below. This will ensure longer machine lifetime.
• Wipe the surfaces down with an oily cloth to prevent rust.
  • Always store the machine in a dry, clean location.

Noise, vibration and precautionary measures

1. Long-term exposure to noise levels exceeding 85 dB (A) are damaging. Always use ear defenders when the machine is being used.
2. To reduce noise levels further, only use the machine in an open environment.
3. Vibrations can be reduced further by holding the handle firmly.
4. To avoid disturbing others, the machine should only be used during the daytime.
