Caution:
Always switch off the engine before performing this cleaning work.
Always wear gloves and safety goggles when cleaning.
Tip:
Clean the machine immediately after use. Accumulated dirt will not have dried out and will
be easier to remove.
• Be advised that dethatching is not the same as cultivating. Both processes have their own spe-
cific purpose and are carried out with specific machines.
• Make sure that the blades are not set too deeply. (max. 2 mm)
• Cease operation immediately if you hear unusual noises. Stop the engine and examine the
cause of the noise/defect. Perform any necessary repairs before continuing.
• Should any foreign objects have ended up under the machine despite proper preparations, im-
mediately switch off the machine. Remove the foreign object and check for damage. Any defects
must be repaired before resuming operation.

Caution:
maintenance of the machine, such as cleaning, must only be carried out
when the engine is switched off.
ELIET recommends cleaning the machine after each use. We recommend performing an inspec-
tion each time you clean the machine to check component and machine integrity. This allows
timely intervention and prevention of any defects. This will ensure a longer service life for your
machine.
Failure to clean the machine can cause:
• Increased wear of the bearings.
• Accelerated wear and tear of drive belts/chains
• Increased wear and tear of covers.
• Reduced engine cooling.
• Increased risk of fire.
• Inability to notice cracks or tears.
• Damage to the paint.
• Illegibility of safety stickers.
