Working With The Implement; Transport - Parkside PLV 1500 A1 Originalbetriebsanleitung

Release the starting lever and reset
the implement after a cooling down
period of approx. 1 minute.
WARNING! The cylinder con-
tinues to run for a brief pe-
riod after the implement has
been switched off. Do not tilt
or carry the implement while
the motor is still running and
do not touch the cylinder
while it is still rotating. Dan-
ger of injury!

Working with the implement

To maintain a well cared-for lawn it should
be aerated every 4 to 6 weeks.
Verticuting is a more intensive intervention
than aerating and should only be carried out
once a year, the best time being in spring af-
ter the lawn has been mown for the irst time.
When working on slopes
always proceed across the
slope. Be particularly careful
when walking backwards
and pulling the implement.
Danger of stumbling!
After work and to transport the imple-
ment disconnect the power plug and
wait until the cylinder is standing still.
The shorter the grass, the better the
lawn can be treated. Furthermore, the
implement is less stressed and the ser-
vice life of the cylinder is prolonged.
• The implement can be operated with or
without the collection bag.
Recommendation: Work with the collec-
tion bag for aerating and without the
collection bag for verticuting.
• Mow the lawn to the required grass
height.
• Do not use the scariier in long grass. It
may otherwise wind around the scari-
ier blade and result in damage to the
equipment.
• Select the appropriate working or
readjustment position (in the event of
cylinder wear) so that the implement is
not overloaded.
• Commence work in the vicinity of the
power socket and proceed away from
the socket.
• Always ensure that the extension cable is
behind you, and after turning move it to
the side that has already been treated.
• Guide the implement at a walking
pace down lanes that are as straight as
possible. To ensure uninterrupted aerat-
ing or verticuting the individual lanes
should always overlap by a few centi-
metres. Dwelling too long at the same
place while the implement is running
can damage the grass sward.
• To ensure that the extension cable is not
an impediment, turn the implement in
such a manner that the cable strain re-
lease on the bar always faces the side
that has been treated.
• Always clean the implement after each
use (see "Cleaning/Maintenance").
• After having treated lawns with dense
moss growth, it is advisable to reseed
the lawn so that it can regenerate itself
quicker.

Transport

• Adjust the transport position (+10 mm)
setting (see "Setting the Working Posi-
tion") when transporting the implement.
• Lift the implement to transport it over
steps and sensitive surfaces (e.g. tiles).
