Blockage Protection: If the aerator cylinder is blocked, e.g. by a foreign body, immediately release the starting lever. If the blockage lasts longer than 10 seconds and the starting lever has not been released, blockage protection is activated. In this case immediately release the starting lever. The Aerator can be switched on again after cooling down for approx. 1 minute.

 

Danger of injury!

 

AIf blockage protection is activated and the starting

 

lever is not released, the Aerator starts again auto-

 

matically after approx. 1 minute.

6. Maintenance

 

 

 

 

 

Cleaning Aerator:

Danger! The aerator cylinder can cause injuries!

 

AV Prior to maintenance, unplug from the mains and

 

wait until the Aerator drum has stopped.

 

V Wear working gloves for performing maintenance.

 

 

 

The Aerator should be cleaned after each time it is used.

Risk of injury and physical damage!

AV Do not clean Aerator under running water (particularly under high pressure).

VDo not use hard or pointed objects for cleaning the Aerator.

v Remove grass and deposits from wheels, aerator cylinder and housing.

Adjusting for wear:The Aerator is subject to wear in use due to the way in which it works. The more intensively the Aerator is used, the greater the wear on the knives.

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

If the results of your work with the Aerator become increasingly worse due to knife wear, the aerator cylinder can be adjusted twice.

The aerator cylinder has 4 adjustment positions:

Transport position

Aerating position 1:

Aerating position 2:

First adjustment position after knife wear (aerator cylinder lowered by 3 mm).

Setting 3:

 

Second adjustment position after knife wear (aerator cylinder

D

lowered by a further 3 mm)

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.
