RAKER FUNCTION
With the raker cylinder, this appliance can be used as
a raker for removing weeds and moss in the lawn as
well as
leaves debris.In order to develop a healthy lawn in the
spring, it is necessary for greater amounts of air to
penetrate the area around the roots of the grass. We
recommend raking the lawn twice a year, e.g. in the
Spring
and in the Autumn.
To achieve good result and increase the lifetime of
the
raker cylinder, mow your lawn to a shorter height
(less than 4 cm) before starting.
CHANGING INTO SCARIFIER FUNCTION
This dethatcher can be used under scarifier function
as neened. To start with scarifier (A), remove the
raker (B) from the unit by loosening two screws (C)
counter-clockwise.
And pull it directly out of the mounting bracket. Then
replace it with a scarifier by inserting the right side
of the scarifier into the post as protruding out of the
housingand align the other side of the scarifier with
the holes on the bracket and secure them with two
screws (C) by turning clockwise.
Make sure the scarifier is correctly secured on the
unit before starting. ( Fig. 8)
