Note: Residual current protection device
These protection devices safeguard while touching
damaged wires, from insulation flaws and in certain cases,
also while damaging live wires.

a power socket, which is protected by a residual current
protection device (RCD) with a residual current of not
more than 30 mA.
Adjust operating depth

Caution! Only with motor switched off and non-mowing
scarifying / aerating roller.

Caution! The working depth must be set correctly befo-
re the unit is used for the first time. The hight adjust-
ment lever may be moved to the first working depth
setting only (position „1")

Note
If the blades/aerator tines are worn, the working depth must
be readjusted subsequently. An optimum working depth is
obtained when the blades/aerator tines of the cutter are in-
serted 2–3 mm into the ground.
If the working depth is too great, the unit may be overloaded
and cause damage. Therefore, ensure that the working
depth is set correctly.
 Increasing the working depth (cutters towards the
ground) (a, b)
–
Set height adjustment lever (depending on model) accor-
ding to wear.
