English Operating instructions – Scarifier with electric motor
8
Scarify the lawn
more frequently in the spring,
when required in the summer,
more frequently in the summer
as well if the lawn has large areas
of shade.
Only scarify the lawn when the grass
height is less than 4 cm. If the grass
has exceeded this length, the lawn
should be mown before it is aerated.
Apply fertiliser to the areas that have
been scarified and water it in, so that
fresh grass can grow more quickly.

Whenever possible, clean the lawn
scarifier straight after you have
finished working on the lawn.
Always park the unit on solid
ground and secure to prevent
it from rolling away.
Tilt the unit forwards.
Clean the cutter chamber and
the ejector cover with brush,
hand broom, or cloth.
Stand the scarifier on its wheels
again, and remove any remaining
grass cuttings or dirt that can still
be seen.
Cleaning the grass sack
The best method is to clean the
grass sack straight after you have
finished scarifying.
Detach and empty the grass sack.
The grass catcher may be
cleaned with a powerful jet of
water from the garden hose.
Allow the grass sack to dry out
thoroughly before using it again.
