Using the Unit

Your RL-MM is designed for aerating
lawns and other grassed areas.
Preparations
If the lawn is very dry, spray it with water
before you start work: this softens the
soil a little and reduces the amount of
dust created.
WARNING
Clear away all obstacles and solid
objects from the work area.
Plan the best route for aerating.
N
RL-MM
Operate the MultiEngine with RL-MM
aerator in the forward direction only.
The blades may only be mounted and
operated in one position. Arrows on the
blades show the required direction of
rotation – see chapter on "Mounting the
MultiTool".
WARNING
Never work without the deflector!
The deflector ensures that cuttings and
other debris are directed away from the
machine and operator.
Aerating the lawn
Secure the handlebar in the normal
N
operating position.
Start the engine.
N
Operate at no less than half throttle,
N
or at full throttle.
Choose a working speed that
N
produces the required aerating
depth without lugging down the
engine.
Operate at no more than a normal
N
walking pace.
Do not push the blades into the
N
ground.
Cleaning the blades
Pieces of grass or roots may become
tightly wrapped around blade mounting
and between the blades during
operation. Clean the blades as follows:
Shut off the engine.
Wear work gloves.
Pull the hitch pins out of the axle.
Pull the blades off the axle.
Remove pieces of roots, plants and
soil.
Refer to "Mounting the MultiTool" for
