Cleaning Electric Lawn Rake:

Adjusting for wear:

7. Trouble-Shooting

Replacing spring tines:

The Electric Lawn Rake should be cleaned after each time it is used.

Risk of injury and physical damage!

v Do not clean Electric Lawn Rake under running

water (particularly under high pressure).

v Do not use hard or pointed objects for cleaning

the Electric Lawn Rake.

v R emove grass and deposits from wheels, aerator cylinder and

housing.

The Electric Lawn Rake is subject to wear in use due to the way

in which it works. The more intensively the Electric Lawn Rake is

used, the greater the wear on the spring tines. Hard or very dry

ground accelerates wear as does excessive use of the Electric

Lawn Rake.

If the results of your work with the Electric Lawn Rake become

increasingly worse due to knife wear, the aerator cylinder can be

adjusted twice.

The aerator cylinder has 4 adjustment positions:

• Transport position

• Aerating position 1

• Aerating position 2:

If the springs are worn (the rake roller is lowered by 3 mm).

• Setting 3:

Second setting for worn springs (the rake roller is lowered by

a further 3 mm).

Push wear compensation lever

and move to the position required.

Note: Wear adjustment is not used for height adjustment.

Adjustment of the aerator cylinder without visible wear can

cause damage to the aerator cylinder or overload the motor.

DANGER! The aerator cylinder can cause injuries!

v Prior to rectifying faults, unplug from the mains

and wait until the aerator cylinder has stopped.

v Wear working gloves when rectifying faults.

If the aerator cylinder is not yet worn but individual springs have

broken, these must be replaced. Only original GARDENA replace-

ment springs may be used.
