4 DESCRIPTION
4.1 Controls
4.1.1 Electric socket and relieving loop
The machine must be connected via an
earth leakage circuit breaker with fault
current 30 mA. There is otherwise a
risk of fatal electric shocks.
The connection cable is connected to the ma-
chine’s electric socket (3:N). The cable must then
be secured in the relieving loop (3:K) before it
leaves the machine.
4.1.2 Start and stop control
Start
:
1. Tilt the machine until the front wheels rise
about 5 cm from the ground.
2. Press in and hold the button (3:P)
3. Squeeze the handle (3:O).
4. Release the button (3:P).
5. Let the front wheels down.
Stop:
1. Release the handle (3:O).
4.1.3 Height adjustment
The spiral cutter can be set to 6 different height po-
sitions according to the table below. Change posi-
tion as follows:
1. Pull out the lever (4:Q).
2. Set the lever to the desired position.
3. Release the lever so that it locks in the new po-
sition.
5 USING THE MACHINE
The machine must be connected via an
earth leakage circuit breaker with fault
current 30 mA. There is otherwise a
risk of fatal electric shocks.
Never run over the extension lead. Risk
of fatal electric shocks.
5.1 Vertical cutting
Making vertical cuts in the lawn achieves the fol-
lowing benefits:
• The air can penetrate down into the soil layer,
making it easier for moisture to evaporate. This
counteracts the growth of moss.
• Loose moss can be scarified and gathered in the
collector.
• The grass roots are divided, so increasing in
number. This produces a denser lawn with more
blades of grass.
5.2 Before use
When performing vertical cutting, the grass must
be as short as possible, ideally not more than 4 cm
long. Vertical cutting can be carried out with or
without a collector. If the collector is not used, the
waste will be dropped and distributed evenly be-
hind the machine.
