3. Proper use
The basic version of the equipment is a scarifier intended for private use,
i.e. for use in home and gardening environments. The scarifi er roller is
designed for ripping moss and weeds – complete with their roots – out of the
soil and for loosening the soil. As a result your lawn can absorb nutrients
better and is cleaned.
We recommend you to scarify your lawn in the spring (April) and autumn
(October).
With the additional aerator roller (Art. No. 3405571), available as an option,
the equipment can be converted to a lawn aerator in just a few steps.
The aerating roller scratches the surface of the lawn, helping water to drain
off more easily as well as promoting oxygen intake. Aerate your lawn throughout
the growing period. The equipment is intended for private use i.e. for use in
home and gardening environments. Scarifi ers for private use are machines whose
annual operating time generally does not exceed 10 hours, during which the
machine is primarily used to maintain small-scale, residential lawns and
home/hobby gardens. Public facilities, sporting halls, and
agricultural/forestry applications are excluded. The operating instructions as
supplied by the manufacturer must be kept and referred to in order to ensure
that the equipment is properly used and maintained.
The instructions contain valuable information on operating, maintenance and
servicing conditions. Warning! Due to the high risk of bodily injury to the
user, the equipment may not be used to grind up branch or hedge clippings.
Moreover, the equipment may not be used as a power cultivator to level out
high areas such as mole hills. For safety reasons, the scarifi er may not be
used as a drive unit for other equipment or toolkits of any kind, unless
specifically advised to do so by the manufacturer.
The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is
deemed to be a case of misuse. The user/operator and not the manufacturer will
be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this.
Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial,
trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the machine
is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent
purposes.

All LEDs blink:
The battery temperature is too low. Remove the battery from the equipment,
keep it at room temperature for one day. If the fault reoccurs, this means
that the rechargeable battery has undergone exhaustive discharge and is
defective.
Remove the battery from the equipment. Never use or charge a defective
battery.
Operation
Caution!
The scarifier is equipped with a safety switch to prevent unauthorized use.
Directly before starting up the scarifi er insert the safety plug (Fig. 21/Item
20) and remove the safety plug again when interrupting or terminating your
work.
To prevent accidental start-up of the scarifi er, the push bar (Fig. 22/Item 5)
is equipped with a safety lock-off (Fig. 22/Item 2) which must be pressed
before the lever switch (Fig. 22/Item 1) can be pressed. The start time for
the equipment can amount to several seconds. If the lever switch is released,
the scarifi er switches off . Repeat this process several times so that you are
sure that your equipment functions properly. Always pull out the safety plug
before performing any adjusting, repair, maintenance or cleaning work on the
equipment.
Make sure that the spike drum is not rotating.
Danger! Never open the ejector fl ap when the motor is running. A rotating
cutting unit can cause injuries.
Always fasten the ejector flap carefully. The fl ap fl ips 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. Be especially careful when
scarifying and changing direction on slopes and inclines. Maintain a solid
footing and wear sturdy, non-slip footwear and long trousers. Always scarify
along the incline (not up and down).
For safety reasons, the scarifier may not be used to scarify inclines whose
gradient exceeds 15 degrees.
Use special caution when backing up and pulling the scarifi er (tripping
hazard)!
Tips for proper working
It is recommended that you overlap scarifying paths a little.
Try to scarify in straight lines for a nice, clean look.
Insodoing, the aeration swaths should always overlap each other by a few
centimeters in order to avoid bare strips.
If you use the catch bag which is available as an option, it has to be emptied
as soon as grass clippings start to trail behind during scarifying.
Danger! Before taking off the grass basket, switch off the motor and wait until
the roller 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.
How frequently you should scarify your lawn is determined primarily by the
speed at which the grass grows and the hardness of the soil.
Keep the underside of the equipment clean and remove soil and grass build-up.
Deposits make it more diffi cult to start the aerator and decrease the quality
of the scarifying.
Always scarify along inclines (not up and down).
Switch off the motor before doing any checks on the roller.
Danger!
The roller rotates for a few seconds after the motor is switched off . Never
attempt to stop the roller. In the event that the rotating roller strikes an
object, immediately switch off the equipment and wait for the roller to come to
a complete stop.
Then inspect the condition of the roller. Replace any parts that are damaged
(see section 7.3). Tips on aerating properly with the aerator roller available
as an option.
The way of working for aerating is the same as for scarifying.
You should therefore observe these safety instructions and notes on working
practice.
Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Always pull out the safety plug before performing any adjusting, repair,
maintenance or cleaning work on the equipment. Make sure that the spike drum
is not rotating.
7.1 Cleaning
- Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
- We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.
- Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of the equipment.
Ensure that no water can seep into the device.
The ingress of water into an electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock.
7.2 Maintenance
- A worn out or damaged cutting unit should be replaced by an authorised expert (see adress on the warranty certificate).
- Take care that all fastening elements (screws, nuts, etc.) are firmly tightened, so that you can work safely with the scarifier.
- Store the scarifier in a dry place.
- For longer life, all screw-fastened parts, such as wheels and axles should be cleaned and subsequently oiled.
- Regular servicing of the scarifier not only secures longer endurance and performance, but also contributes to an accurate and simple scarification of your lawn.
- At the end of the season, carry out a general check of the scarifier, and remove all residue collected. Before the start of every season, it is absolutely necessary to check the state of
the scarifier. Contact our Customer Service
(see address on the warranty certificate) if
repair work is necessary.
The push bar has a P position (Fig. 15) in order to take up less space during storage. To adopt this position you must loosen the quick-release levers by approx. 3 turns to allow for the higher fastening in the parking position. With the bar in this position, the scarifi er can be stood in a corner in minimum space (Fig. 23). When you return the bar to the working position, remember to tighten the quick-release levers again by 3 turns!
7.3 Changing the roller (see Figures 24-27)
Be sure to wear work gloves!
Only replace the roller with a genuine Einhell roller, as this will ensure top
performance and safety under all conditions.
To change the scarifying roller or the aerator roller (Fig. 27b, Art. No.:
34.055.71), which is available as an option, proceed as follows: Remove the
two socket head screws (Fig. 24 /Item A). Lift the roller on this side and
pull out in the direction of the arrow (Fig. 25).
Now slide the new roller in the direction of the arrow (Fig. 27a/27b) onto the
square-ended drive (Fig. 26 / Item A) and press into the holder (Fig. 27a).
Refasten the roller with the two socket head screws (Fig. 24 / Item A).
Apply grease to the square-ended drive from time to time so that the rollers
can be changed easily. If the blade roller is set unfavorably, the outer blade
(Fig. 25/Item A) may be blocked by the housing. In this case move the roller
half a turn forward!
