TRANSPORTING TO SITE

To avoid damage to the machine, lawn or pavement, always move HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT LEVER to “TRANSPORT” position when moving from one location to another. Refer to Figure 4. Also, when transporting, the

machine is more easily steered when tilted backwards onto its rear wheels.

DETHATCHINGPROCEDURE

The DETHATCHER/SLICER SHOULD NOT BE PULLED BACKWARDS! If an area must be gone over again, turn the machine around.

NOTE

*Do not use this machine on wet or water soaked lawns. This will pull turf off the surface of the lawn, particularly in rough or bumpy areas.

*Before using your machine, inspect the lawn and remove all sticks, stones, wire and any foreign objects that are likely to damage the machine.

*Do not use machine in tall grass. You receive a better job when raking after a recent mowing.

*Do not let the DETHATCHER set in one spot without having the clutch disengaged. Failure to do this will cause the unit to dig up turf.
