10. Cleaning and maintenance

Danger!
Always pull out the mains power plug before starting
any cleaning work.
Cleaning
• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device immedi-
ately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or
solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the
equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the
device. The ingress of water into an electric tool
increases the risk of an electric shock.
Carbon brushes
In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualified electrician.
Danger! The carbon brushes should not be replaced
by anyone but a qualified electrician.
Maintenance
• A worn out or damaged cutting unit should be re-
placed by an authorised expert.
• Take care that all fastening elements (screws,
nuts, etc.) are firmly tightened, so that you can
work safely with the Electric Tiller.
• Store the Electric Tiller in a dry place.
• For longer life, all screw-fastened parts, such as
wheels and axles should be cleaned and subse-
quently oiled.
• Regular servicing of the implement not only se-
cures longer endurance and performance, it also
contributes to an accurate and simple dig up of
your bed.
• At the end of the season, carry out a general check
of the Electric Tiller, and remove all residue col-
lected. Before the start of every season, it is ab-
solutely necessary to check the state of the ma-
chine. Contact our Customer Service if repair work
is necessary.
