Operation Manual

5. POWER CONNECTION

WARNING! Before operating the scarifier, ensure

that the fastening elements are undamaged.

In order to reduce the risk of injuries, always switch off the

motor and pull out the mains plug before working on the

machine.

The product can be connected to any socket (with 230-240V

alternating current). We recommend to always use the

appliance via a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a

tripping current of max. 30mA.

1). Mains leads on scarifiers are particularly susceptible to

insulation damage. The causes of this include the following:

- The cable may be cut if the scarifier passes over it.

- Damage through crushing if the mains lead becomes

stuck under doors or windows.

- Cracks caused by ageing of the insulation sheath.

- Kinks caused by incorrect fastening of the mains lead.

2). Such damaged mains leads should not be used under

any circumstances as they may cause fatal injuries due to their

damaged insulation sheath.

3). Always check the plug and cable and make sure they are

in good condition before operation.

6. STARTING AND STOPPING

1). STARTING

The product is fitted with a lock-off button feature. To start the

product, simply press the lock-off button (18) then fully press

and hold the start/stop level (19). The lock-off button can now

be released. (See Fig.9)

NOTE: It is not necessary to maintain pressure on the lock-off

button once the start/stop level is squeezed and the motor is

running. The lock-off button is a safety device to avoid

accidental start-up of the device.

2). STOPPING

The product will automatically stop once the start/stop lever is

released. The lock-off button will have to be pressed and the

start/stop lever squeezed to restart the motor.
