Adjusting for wear:
D
The Electric Lawn Rake is subject to wear in use due to the way
in which it works. The more intensively the Electric Lawn Rake is
used, the greater the wear on the spring tines. Hard or very dry
ground accelerates wear as does excessive use of the Electric
Lawn Rake.
If the results of your work with the Electric Lawn Rake 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:
If the springs are worn (the rake roller is lowered by 3 mm).
• Setting 3:
Second setting for worn springs (the rake roller is lowered by
afurther 3 mm).
Push wear compensation lever
D
gently away from the housing
and move to the position required.
