VDo not use hard or pointed objects for cleaning the Lawn Scarifier.

Adjusting for wear:The Lawn Scarifier is subject to wear in use due to the way in which it works. The more intensively the Lawn Scarifier is used, the greater the wear on the spring tines.

Hard or very dry ground accelerates wear as does excessive use of the Lawn Scarifier.

If the results of your work with the Lawn Scarifier become increas- ingly worse due to wear of the spring tines, the aerator cylinder can be adjusted twice.

The aerator cylinder has 4 adjustment positions:

• Transport position

•Aerating position 1:

•Aerating position 2:

If the springs are worn (the scarifier roller is lowered by 3 mm).

•Setting 3:

Second setting for worn springs (the scarifier roller is lowered by a further 3 mm).

D

Push wear compensation lever D gently away from the housing

 

and move to the position required.

Note: Wear adjustment is not used for height adjustment. Adjustment of the aerator cylinder without visible wear can cause damage to the aerator cylinder or overload the motor.
