Then inspect the condition of the roller. Replace any
parts that are damaged. Lay the power cable on the
ground in loops in front of the power outlet. Scarify
away from the power outlet and cable, making sure
that the power cable always trails in the already scar-
ified grass so that the equipment does not travel over
the cable.
11. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and
ready for operation. The connection complies
with the applicable VDE and DIN provisions. The
customer's mains connection as well as the ex-
tension cable used must also comply with these
regulations.
• The product meets the requirements of EN 61000-
3-11 and is subject to special connection conditions.
This means that use of the product at any freely se-
lectable connection point is not allowed.
• Given unfavourable conditions in the power supply
the product can cause the voltage to fluctuate tem-
porarily.
• The product is intended solely for use at connection
points where the following prerequisites apply:
a) A maximum permitted supply impedance "Z"
(Zmax = 0,433 Ω) must not be exceeded.
b) A continuous current-carrying capacity of the
mains of at least 100 A per phase must be given.
• As the user, you are required to ensure that the
connection point at which you wish to operate the
product meets one of the two requirements, a) or b),
mentioned above. As necessary, consult your elec-
tric power company.
Important information
In the event of an overloading the motor will switch
itself off. After a cool-down period (time varies) the
motor can be switched back on again.
Damaged electrical connection cable
The insulation on electrical connection cables is often
damaged.
This may have the following causes:
• Passage points, where connection cables are
passed through windows or doors.
• Kinks where the connection cable has been improp-
erly fastened or routed.
• Places where the connection cables have been cut
due to being driven over.
• Insulation damage due to being ripped out of the
wall outlet.
• Cracks due to the insulation ageing. Such damaged
electrical connection cables must not be used and are
life-threatening due to the insulation damage.
Check the electrical connection cables for damage
regularly. Make sure that the connection cable does
not hang on the power network during the inspection.
Electrical connection cables must comply with the ap-
plicable VDE and DIN provisions. Only use connec-
tion cables of the same designation.
The printing of the type designation on the connection
cable is mandatory.
If the power cord of this device is damaged, it must be
replaced by a special power cord, which is available
from the manufacturer or its service department.
AC motor:
The mains voltage must be 220 - 240 V ~ .
• Extension cables up to 25 m long must have a
cross-section of 1.5 mm
Connections and repairs of electrical equipment may
only be carried out by an electrician.
Please provide the following information in the event
of any enquiries:
• Type of current for the motor
• Machine data - type plate
• Motor data - type plate
12. Cleaning and maintenance
m Danger!
Always pull out the mains power plug before starting
any cleaning work.
Cleaning
• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device immedi-
ately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or
solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the
equipment. Ensure that no water can seep into the
device. The ingress of water into an electric tool
increases the risk of an electric shock.
Carbon brushes
In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
brushes checked only by a qualified electrician.
Danger! The carbon brushes should not be replaced
by anyone but a qualified electrician.
Maintenance
• A worn out or damaged cutting unit should be re-
placed by an authorised expert.
• Take care that all fastening elements (screws,
nuts, etc.) are firmly tightened, so that you can
work safely with the scarifier.
• Store the scarifier in a dry place.
