The equipment is intended for private use i.e. for use
in home and gardening environments.
Scarifiers for private use are machines whose an-

hours, during which the machine is primarily used
to maintain small-scale, residential lawns and home/
hobby gardens.
Public facilities, sporting halls, and agricultural/for-
estry applications are excluded.
The operating instructions as supplied by the manu-
facturer must be kept and referred to in order to en-
sure that the equipment is properly used and main-
tained. The instructions contain valuable information

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 scarifier may not be used
as a drive unit for other equipment or toolkits of any
kind, unless specifically advised to do so by the man-
ufacturer.
The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed
purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of
