Adjusting the working depth (fig. 12)
The working depth is set using the depth adjustment
(10) on the two front wheels. To do this, gently pull
the depth adjustment (10) away to the left, bring it to
the desired position and let it latch into that position.
0= +6 mm
1 = -3 mm
2 = -6 mm
3 = -9 mm
4= -12 mm
Adjusting the steering bar (fig. 5 + 13)
• First loosen the grip screws (fig. 5), so that you can
adjust the steering bar.
• Set the desired height, as shown in fig. 13. (You
can choose between three levels).
Replacing brush (fig. 14, 15)
m ATTENTION!
Be sure to wear gloves!
Remove the Allen screws and lift the brush on this
end. Pull the brush in the direction of the arrow, out
of the drive square. Slide the new brush in the direc-
tion of the arrow back into the drive square and then
press it into the bracket. Use the Allen screws to fas-
ten the roller back onto the housing.
10. Operation
To prevent accidental start-up of the equipment, the
shift lever (fig. 1 / Item 1) is equipped with a safety
switch (fig. 1 / Item 2) which must be pressed before
the lever switch (fig. 1 / Item 1) can be pressed.
If the lever switch is released, the equipment switches
off .
Repeat this process several times so that you are
sure that the machine functions properly. Before you
perform any repair or maintenance work on the ma-
chine, ensure that the brush unit is not rotating and
that the power supply is disconnected.
m Important!
Never open the ejector flap when the motor is run-
ning. A rotating brush unit can cause injuries. Always
fasten the ejector flap carefully. The flap flips back to
the "Closed" position by the tension springs!
Always ensure that a safe distance (provided by the
long handles) is maintained between the user and the
housing.
m Danger! Before taking off the grass basket,
switch off the motor and wait until the brush has
come to a stop.
To remove the grass basket, lift up the ejector flap with
one hand, while unhooking the basket with the other.

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.
