6. Before starting the equipment
Insert the batteries before using for the first time
(Fig. 2)
1. Open the battery compartment cover.
2. Insert four new batteries. Be sure to observe the
correct polarity (+/-) of the batteries.
3. Close the battery compartment cover.
Notes
Ensure that the ON/OFF switch (6) is not
activated, before inserting the batteries.
Inserting the batteries when the equipment is
switched on can cause accidents.
Use four alkali batteries, type Mignon AA (1.5 V).
Always replace all batteries when the equipment
becomes weaker or ceases to work.
Never use a combination of new and used
batteries.
Never use a battery type other than the specified
one.
If the equipment is not used for a lengthy period
of time, remove the batteries from the equipment
to prevent them leaking.
Dispose of spent batteries properly.
7. Operation
7.1 Recommended spreading settings
(Fig. 1 / Item 2)
Each spreader material is supplied with instructions
on how many grams per square meter are to be
spread. Set a low flow rate for smaller quantities and
increase the flow rate for larger quantities.
The following settings are recommended:
Setting 1: fine grass seeds
Setting 2: coarse grass seeds
Setting 3: light fertilizer
Setting 4: heavy fertilizer
Setting 5: pearled fertilizer or de-icer
Note:
Numerous variable factors (such as walking speed,
working height, motor speed etc.) do not allow a
specific recommendation of the spreading setting.
Rather, the optimal setting must be determined by the
user when starting with the work.
7.2 Spreading (Fig. 1/3)
Note:
The ON/OFF switch (6) activates the opening for the
spreader material as well as the spreader wheel.
Important! You cannot actuate the ON/OFF switch
(6) until you have pushed back the switch lock (1).
The switch lock may become detached if you fail to
observe this point.
1. Ensure that the ON/OFF switch (6) is not
activated and that the infinitely adjustable speed
controller (5) is set to position “0”.
2. Place the spreader on a paved surface and fill
spreading material into the spreading material
