Proper operation ensures effective lawn care and extends the life of your scarifier.
- పని ఎత్తు సర్దుబాటు:
The SC38 features a central height adjustment with 5 positions, ranging from -12 mm to +6 mm. For scarifying, start with a higher setting and gradually lower it to avoid damaging the lawn. For aeration, a higher setting is generally sufficient.

- యంత్రాన్ని ప్రారంభించడం:
Press and hold the safety button, then pull the operating lever towards the handle. The motor will start. Release the safety button but keep the operating lever held to continue running the machine.
- యంత్రాన్ని ఆపడం:
Release the operating lever. The motor will stop automatically.
- Scarifying/Aerating Techniques:
- Work in straight, overlapping lines across your lawn.
- Avoid operating on excessively wet or dry lawns. Slightly moist soil is ideal.
- For scarifying, it is often beneficial to make two passes, the second perpendicular to the first, for thorough removal of thatch.
- The SC38 is designed for areas up to 700 m² with a working width of 38 cm.
