Electrical safety:
CAUTION! The following states how to avoid accidents and injuries due to electric shock:
- Before each use, carry out a visual inspection of the power and extension cables for signs of damage or ageing. Damaged mains power cables increase the risk of electric shock.
- Connect the implement to a power socket with a RCD (Residual Current Device) that has a rated current of not more than 30 mA. Avoid operating the machine in poor weather conditions, especially if there is a risk of lightning.
- Always keep the extension cable well away from the cutting tools. Should the power cable become damaged during work, then instantly disconnect the power cable from the mains. DO NOT TOUCH THE POWER
GBMT
CABLE BEFORE IT HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAINS! Risk of electric shock. Do not use the machine, if the cable is damaged or worn.
- If the machine's mains power cord is damaged, it must be replaced with a specific power cord, which may be obtained from the manufacturer or their customer service representative.
- If the connecting cable is damaged, first disconnect the extension cable from the socket. You can then disconnect the connecting cable of the equipment.
- Keep the extension cables away from the sprung tines. The tines may damage the cables and result in contact with live parts.
- Check that the mains voltage is the same as indicated on the rating plate.
- Avoid body contact with earthed parts (e.g. metal fences, metal posts). There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.
- Only use approved extension cables of the type H05VV-F, with a maximum length of 75 m and which have been approved for open-air use. The stranded cord diameter of the extension cable must be at least 1.0 mm ^2 . Always unreel a cable drum to its full length so that the entire cable can be checked for damage.
- Use the envisaged cable suspension when attaching an extension cable.
- Never pull the cable to disconnect the plug from the socket. Protect the cable from heat, oil
and sharp edges.
- Keep the extension cable away from dangerous moving parts to prevent damage to cables that can lead to contact with live parts.
- Ensure that you do not touch any of the dangerous moving parts before you have unplugged the device from the mains supply, and that the dangerous moving parts have come to a complete standstill.
Residual Risks
There will always be residual risks even if you operate this electrical tool according to the instructions. The following hazards may occur in connection with the type and design of this electric tool:
a) a) Cutting injuries
b) Hearing damage if suitable ear protection is not worn.
c) Health injuries resulting from the effect of vibration on the hands and arms in the event that the device is used over a longer period of time or is not used and maintained properly.
Warning! During operation, this power tool produces an electromagnetic field. Under certain circumstances, this field may negatively affect active or passive medical implants. In order to reduce the danger of serious or fatal injuries, we recommend that individuals who wear medical implants should consult their doctor and the manufacturer of the implant before operating the machine.

WARNING: Never operate the implement without the act protector. Danger of Injury!

The collection bag is recommended for operation with the air roller (A 16)!
- Pull the collection bag (12) over the rods.
- Put the plastic straps of the collection bag (12) over the collection bag rods and clip into the plastic straps.
Mounting the collection bag on the implement:
- Lift the impact protector (13).
- Push the pins on the collection bag (12) rods into the socket in the implement case.
- Release the impact protector (13) so that it holds the collection bag (12) in its position.

You can check the fill level of the collection bag (12) via the transparent fill level inspection window in the impact protection flap (13).
Removing and emptying the collection bag:
- Lift the impact protector (13) and take out the collection bag (12).
Operation

Please observe local regulations concerning noise protection.
Setting the working positions
The implement has 5 principal position settings:
+10 mm: Transport position
This position sets the maximum safety spacing between the tool and the floor.
-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 identified from an increasingly poor result. The readjusting depth amounts to approx. 3 mm per setting.
GBMT
- The implement must be switched off to set the working position.
- Adjust the depth adjustment lever (A 10) 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 damage the cylinder.

Switching on and off

Before switching on the implement 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!
- Place the implement on a level lawn surface.
- Connect the extension cable to the power socket (18).
- Make a loop in the extension cable and suspend this in the cable strain relief (14).
- Connect the implement to the mains voltage.
- To switch on, press the electronic switch lock (1) on the handlebar and then pull the start handle (2) towards the handlebar. Release the electronic switch lock (1).
- To switch off release the starting lever (2).

Overload protection: The motor is automatically switched off when the implement is overloaded. Release the starting lever and reset the implement after a cooling down period of approx. 1 minute.
WARNING! The cylinder continues to run for a brief period 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 first time.
When working on slopes always proceed across the slope. Be particularly careful when walking backwards and pulling the implement. Danger of stumbling!
After work and to transport the implement disconnect the power plug and wait until the cylinder is standing still.
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 collection bag for aeration. We recommend working without the collection bag for scarifying.
- Mow the lawn to the required grass height.
- Do not use the scarifier in long grass. It may otherwise wind around the scarifier blade and result in damage to the
equipment.
- Make sure that the machine does not have to be tilted. Keep both hands in the working position before placing the machine back on the ground.
- Select the appropriate working or readjustment position (in the event of cylinder wear) so that the implement is not overloaded.
- Commence work in the vicinity of the power socket and proceed away from the socket.
• Always ensure that the extension cable is behind you, and after turning move it to the side that has already been treated. - 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 running can damage the grass sward.
- To ensure that the extension cable is not an impediment, turn the implement in such a manner that the cable strain release on the bar always faces the side that has been treated.
- 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 implement.
- Lift the implement to transport it over steps and sensitive surfaces (e.g. tiles). Use the handle (A 9).
Cleaning/maintenance
Work that has not been de- scribed in these Instructions must be carried out by a servicing agency authorised by us. Only use original parts.
Wear gloves when handling the cylinder.
Prior to all maintenance and cleaning work always switch off the implement, disconnect the plug from the power socket and wait until the cylinder is standing still. Warning! Risk of injury by dangerous moving parts!
General cleaning and maintenance work
Do not jet water onto the implement and do not clean it under flowing water. This would result in the danger of an electric shock and the implement could be damaged.
- When work has finished remove plant residues adhering to the wheels, inside the ventilation opening, the grass ejector opening and the cylinder. Do not use hard or pointed objects for this purpose as they could damage the implement.
• Completely empty the collection bag.
• Always keep the implement clean. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents.
We cannot be held liable for damage caused by our implements if they were improperly repaired, if non-original parts have been used or if they were used not in keeping with their intended purpose.

Exchanging the cylinder

Switch off the implement, disconnect the mains plug and wait until the cylinder is standing still.

Wear gloves when handling the cylinder.
- Turn the implement over.
- Loosen the wing screw (19) and pull the bearing support (23) upwards.
- Lift the roller (A16/17) diagonally and pull the shaft out of the hexagon receptacle (20)..
- Insert the new cylinder (A 16/17) by reversing the sequence.
Storage
- Store the implement in a dry place well out of reach of children.
- Allow the motor to cool down before placing the implement in a closed room.
- Do not wrap nylon sacks around the implement as this could result in the formation of moisture.
