Operation

Working Position:

• The Grass Sweeper has a self-propelled motion. The rotating bristles pull the machine along. Lower settings provide more intense self-propulsion.
• It is recommended to start with the highest setting to familiarize yourself with the operation.
• Work in a pattern, starting from the nearest power source and moving outwards.
• Work against the pile of your lawn to achieve a fluffier look.
• For lawns with an incline, work horizontally. Working downhill can be dangerous.
• To create lawn stripes, alternate the direction of the machine's path.
• The sweeper will leave a 10cm gap to walls or raised borders.
• Use a strong bristle garden brush for areas the sweeper cannot reach.

Before Starting:

1. Check the condition of the cable. Do not use if damaged.
2. Ensure no objects or branches are trapped in the machine.
3. Ensure the work area is tidy and free of obstacles. Remove debris like stones and sticks.
4. Never operate the machine if it is damaged.
5. To start the unit: Press and hold the Safety Button (2), then pull the Starting Lever (3). Keep holding the Starting Lever and release the Safety Button.

Depth Adjustment:

• The working depth is adjustable to 5 heights (-11, -7, -3, +3, +10mm).
• Shift the Depth Adjustment Handle (10) forwards or backwards to adjust the height.
• Start with the highest position and gradually lower to find the best setting for your grass type.

Before Vacuuming:

• The lawn MUST be dry before using the Lawn Sweeper. Using on wet lawns will not achieve the same results and may cause clogging.
• It is recommended to clean your lawn with a suitable pressure washer and vacuum before use.
