Power Cable Safety; Electrical Requirements - AL-KO CC 38 E Betriebsanleitung

Power cable safety


Only use rubber-sheathed cables with quality
H05RN-F acc. to DIN/VDE 0282 with a conductor
cross section of 3 phases of 1.5 mm² each.

The type designation must be marked on the pow-
er cable. The plug and coupling socket must be
made from rubber or sheathed in rubber, and be in
accordance with DIN/VDE 0620.

Only use a power cable with suffi cient length.

The power cable, plug and coupling socket must
be protected against splash water.

Repairs on the power cable, plug and coupling
socket are only allowed to be carried out by au-
thorised specialist companies. A defective power
cable (e.g. with cracks, cuts, crushed or kinked
points in the insulation) is not allowed to be used.

Protect the plug connections against moisture.
Danger!
Do not damage or cut the power cable.
If the power cable is damaged, immediately discon-
nect it from the mains.

Electrical requirements


230 V/50 Hz alternating current

Minimum cross section

Power cable = 1.5 mm²

Minimum fusing of mains connection = 10 A

Residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB)

Maximum tripping current = 30 mA.
Establishing the mains connection (05)
1. Connect the coupling part of the power cable to
the plug on the safety pushbutton switch (a).
2. Coil the power cable into a loop and hook it into
the cable strain relief (b). Leave the loop long
enough for the cable strain relief to be able to slide
from one side to the other.
Danger!
Never operate the machine from mains sockets
which do not have a residual-current circuit breaker.

Setting the working depth (04)
Important!
Only set the working depth if the engine is switched
off and the blade shaft is stopped.
Set the working depth of the blade shaft at the dial
selector.
1. Tilt the scarifi er backwards with the handlebar.
2. Push the twist switch down and turn it to level "1".
Positions on the dial selector:
1 - 5 = Setting the working depth (04)
With new blades, set the dial selector to posi-
tion 2 at most!
The correct working depth depends on:

the condition of the lawn

the wear on the blades
If the working depth is set too low:

the scarifi er will stop

the engine will stall
In this case, move the dial selector back to a shallower
working depth.
Always mow the lawn before scarifying.
Starting the engine (06)
1. Push and hold the button of the safety pushbutton
switch (a).
2. Pull the operator presence control against the
handlebar (b). The motor starts.
The operator presence control does not lock in The operator presence control does not lock in
place. It must be held in place all the time. place. It must be held in place all the time.
3. Release the button of the safety pushbutton
switch.
Switching off the motor (07)
1. Release the operator presence control (a). It auto-
matically returns to its initial position. The motor
is switched off.
Danger of lacerations!
The blade shaft keeps turning under its own
momentum! After switching off, do not reach
under the machine straight away.
