General safety notes
Warning! Improper use of this tool
may lead to serious injury. Read this instruction manual carefully before you start working with the tool, and familiarise yourself with its controls.
• Keep the manual in a safe place and pass it on to any subsequent owner to ensure that the information it contains is always available.
• Remember: the user is responsible for accidents involving other people or their property.
Please read the following safety
guidelines in order to avoid risk of re, electric shock, personal injury and damage to objects:
Preparation:
• The equipment is to be used only by people who are adequately trained.
• For safety reasons, do not allow children or young people under 16 or anyone not familiarised with this instruction manual to use the tool.
This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been giv­en supervision or instruction concern­ing use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children must be supervised in order to ensure that they do not play with the equipment.
• Never use the tool while others, espe­cially children or pets, are close by.
• Familiarise yourself with handling the tool and pay attention to all possible dangers that may be overheard while working with the tool.
• Check the terrain on which you will be using the tool, and remove stones, sticks, wires or other foreign objects that may be caught up and spun off.
• Wear proper working clothes, such as rm footwear with non-slip soles and strong long trousers. Do not use the tool barefoot or wearing open-toed sandals.
• To prevent injury from the tines, only switch the tool on in its working posi­tion.
• Examine the tool beforehand every time you use it. Do not use the tool when the safety components (such as the power safety catch or guard), cut­ting parts or bolts are missing, worn or damaged. In particular, check the mains cable and dead-man lever for damage.
• Only replace damaged bolts or tines in complete sets to prevent imbal­ance.
• Only use replacement and accessory parts delivered and recommended by the manufacturer. Using foreign parts will immediately lead to loss of guar­antee.

Working with the tool:
Keep your hands and feet away
from the tines while working, es­pecially when starting up the tool – injury hazard!
• Observe any noise-prevention regu­lations and local by-laws. Using the tool may be limited or prohibited on certain days such as Sundays or pub­lic holidays, or during certain times of the day (midday, at night) or in certain areas (such as at health spas and hospitals).
• Do not use the tool to chop up stones or till lawn soil, as such use may dam­age the tool.
• Do not use the tool in rain, foul weather or damp surroundings (such as near garden ponds or swimming pools). Only use in daylight or good lighting conditions.
• Be sensible. Do not use the tool if you are tired or easily distracted, or after the use of alcohol or medicines. Take a break as soon as you need one.
• Make sure that you are standing rmly when using the tool, especially on slopes. If working on a slope, work along the slope, not upwards or down­wards. Be particularly careful when changing direction on the slope. Do not use the tool on excessively steep slopes.
• If there is any danger of slipping on sloped ground, have a second person secure the tool with a rod or cable. The second person should stand up the slope at a safe distance from the tool.
• Always hold the tool securely in both hands while working with it.
• Make sure that the grips are dry and clean. Be careful while moving back­wards – danger of tripping over!
• Take particular care when turning or raising the machine.
• If the chopping knife is blocked by a foreign body, switch off the equipment and disconnect at the plug. Remove the foreign body (e.g. root) before re­starting the equipment.
• Do not use the tool if it is damaged, incomplete or altered without the ap­proval of the manufacturer. In particu­lar, do not work with the tool if guards or protection ttings are damaged or missing.
• Do not overload the tool. Only work in the performance range stated. Do not use tools that do not have sufcient power for heavy jobs. Do not use the tool for any use other than that intend­ed by the manufacturer.
• Avoid damage to the tool. Do not ap­ply extra weight and do not drag the tool over hard surfaces such as tiles or steps.
Stopping work:
Warning! The tines will continue
to turn for a few seconds after you switch the tool off. Wait until they have stopped moving – injury haz­ard!
• Do not lift or transport the tool while the motor is running. Turn the tool off and wait for the tines to stop mov­ing, then disconnect the tool from the mains before changing the area you are working on.
• Never leave the tool unattended where you were using it.
• Switch the tool off, wait for the tines to stop moving and disconnect the tool from the mains under the following circumstances:
- Always before leaving the tool.
- Before removing remnants of soil and plants
- When the tool is not in use
- Before you conduct maintenance or cleaning work on the tool
6
Page 7
IEGB
- If the mains cable is damaged or caught up
- If the tool collides with an obstacle or starts to vibrate in an unusual manner. In this case, examine the tool for damage, and have it repaired if necessary.
• Use the tool away from ammable uids or gases. Failure to do so may result in re or explosion.
Maintenance and storage:
• Make sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are tight and that the tool is in safe working order.
• Do not attempt to repair the tool your­self unless you are qualied to do so. Return the tool to our service centre to carry out any work not listed in the user manual.
• Keep the tool in a dry place out of chil­dren’s reach.
• Be careful in handling the tool. Keep the tines sharp and clean to improve its working safety and effectiveness.
• Follow the maintenance regulations.
Electrical safety:
Warning! Do not use the tool if the
mains or extension cable is dam­aged – danger of electrical shock.
• Make sure that the mains voltage matches the data on the tool’s rating label.
• If possible, connect the tool to a socket with a residual-current (RC) trip switch at a triggering current of not more than 30 mA.
• Avoid skin contact with earthed ob­jects such as metal fences and posts.
• Make sure that the connector on the extension cable is protected from splash water, and is made of rubber or has a rubber covering. Only use extension cables that are intended for outdoor use and are labelled as such. Use extension cables with a cable core diameter of at least one square millimetre. Always completely unwind the cable reel before use. Check the cable for damage.
• Use the cable hanger tted for the purpose when using an extension ca­ble.
• Do not carry the tool by the cable. Do not unplug the cable by tugging on it. Keep the cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges.
• If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced with a special power cable, which is avail­able from the manufacturer or a cus­tomer service agent of the same.
• Keep the mains cable away from the tines. Always trail the mains cable be­hind you or the person operating the tool. If the cable becomes damaged during use, immediately disconnect it from the mains.
Never touch the mains cable before
unplugging it from the mains.

General cleaning and mainte­nance work
Do not spray the tool down with wa-
ter (especially not under pressure), and do not clean it under running water.
Wear protective gloves when carry-
ing out maintenance and cleaning work on the tool to avoid injury from cuts.
Always clean the tool thoroughly after each use. Always keep the tool clean. Do not use cleaning uids or solvents.
• Check the covers and guards for dam­age and correct t. Change them if necessary.
We shall not be held responsible for any damage caused in any of the following ways:
- Improper repair
- Use of non-original parts
- Use other than for the intended pur­pose
Changing the tines
The tool is tted with four tine wheels that can easily be changed in pairs. Both of the tine-wheel pairs can be tted on the left or right, as required.
 Alwayschangebothtinepairsatthe
sametimetoavoiddamagetothe toolfromimbalance.
Switch the tool off, unplug it and wait for the tines to stop turning.
1. Unscrew the hex bolt (19) and the self-locking nut (20) on the tine-wheel pair (11).
2. Slide the tine-wheel pair off the shaft (10).
3. Clean the driveshaft
with biological oil.
• Remove any soil and dirt residues stuck to the tines, driveshaft, tool surface and vents with a brush or dry cloth.
• Spray or rub biodegradable oil into the tines.
