Tips

• The blades must always run at the highest speed. Make sure they are not overloaded.

Important:

• Do not use the cultivator, if the soil is very hard and dry. It can damage the gearbox. Use the cultivator in the spring, in late summer, or in autumn, when the soil is moist and soft.
• Use one of these work patterns when preparing an area for sowing. (fig. 5)

Blades

Lubrication

Important: Check and refill with grease after each 20 hours of operation.

Procedure:

• Place the machine on its right side. Clean around the filling hole to prevent dirt from getting into the machine when the plug is removed. (fig. 7)
