GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Cutting attachment guard
This guard is intended to prevent loose objects from being thrown towards the operator. The guard also protects the operator from accidental contact with the cutting attachment.
Check that the guard is undamaged and not cracked. Replace the guard if it has been exposed to impact or is cracked.
Always use the recommended guard for the cutting attachment you are using. See chapter on Technical data.
WARNING! Never use a cutting
!
attachment without an approved guard. See the chapter on Technical data. If an incorrect or faulty guard is fitted this can cause serious personal injury.
Regularly check the vibration damping units for cracks or deformation. Check that the vibration damping element is undamaged and securely attached.
WARNING! Overexposure to vibration can
!
lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage in people who have impaired circulation. Contact your doctor if you experience symptoms of overexposure to vibration. These symptoms include numbness, loss of feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes in skin colour or condition. These symptoms normally appear in the fingers, hands or wrists.
Muffler
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.
Vibration damping system
Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping system that is designed to minimize vibration and make operation easier.
Use of incorrectly wound cord or an incorrect cutting attachment increases the level of vibration. See instructions under the heading Cutting equipment.
The machine´s vibration damping system reduces the transfer of vibration between the engine unit and the machine´s shaft unit.
For mufflers it is very important that you follow the instructions on checking, maintaining and servicing your machine.
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine.
8 – English
WARNING! The inside of the muffler
!
contain chemicals that may be carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these elements in the event of a damaged muffler.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING! Bear in mind that:
!
The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and may contain sparks which can start a fire. Never start the machine indoors or near combustible material!
Locking nut
A locking nut is used to secure some types of cutting attachment.
Cutting equipment
This section describes how to choose and maintain your cutting equipment in order to:
Reduce the risk of blade thrust.
Obtain maximum cutting performance.
Extend the life of cutting equipment.
IMPORTANT! Only use cutting attachments with the guards we
recommend! See the chapter on Technical data. Refer to the instructions for the cutting attachment to
check the correct way to load the cord and the correct cord diameter.
Keep the teeth of the blade correctly sharpened! Follow our recommendations. Also refer to the instructions on the blade packaging.
WARNING! Always stop the engine
!
before doing any work on the cutting attachment. This continues to rotate even after the throttle has been released. Ensure that the cutting attachment has stopped completely and disconnect the spark plug cap before you start to work on it.
When fitting, tighten the nut in the opposite direction to the direction of rotation of the cutting attachment. To remove it, undo the nut in the same direction as the cutting attachment rotates. (CAUTION! The nut has a left-hand thread.)
When loosening and tightening the saw blade nut, there is a risk of injury from the teeth of the saw blade. You should therefore always ensure that your hand is shielded by the blade guard when doing this. Always use a socket spanner with a shaft that is long enough to allow this. The arrow in the diagram shows the area where you should operate the socket spanner when loosening or tightening the nut.
The nylon lining inside the locking nut must not be so worn that you can turn it by hand. The lining should offer a resistance of at least 1.5 Nm. The nut should be replaced after it has been put on approx. 10 times.
WARNING! Using an incorrect cutting
!
attachment or an incorrectly sharpened blade increases the risk of blade thrust.
Cutting equipment
Grass blades and grass knifes are intended for cutting coarse grass.
A trimmer head is intended for trimming grass.
English 9
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
General rules
Only use cutting attachments with the guards we recommend! See the chapter on Technical data.
Keep the teeth of the blade correctly sharpened! Follow our instructions and use the recommended file gauge. An incorrectly sharpened or damaged blade increases the risk of accidents.
Check the cutting attachment for damage or cracks. A damaged cutting attachment should always be replaced.
Trimmer head
IMPORTANT! Always ensure the trimmer cord is wound tightly and
evenly around the drum, otherwise the machine will generate harmful vibration.
Only use the recommended trimmer heads and trimmer cords. These have been tested by the manufacturer to suit a particular engine size. This is especially important when a fully automatic trimmer head is used. Only use the recommended cutting attachment. See the chapter on Technical data.
Smaller machines generally require small trimmer heads and vice versa. This is because when clearing using a cord the engine must throw out the cord radially from the trimmer head and overcome the resistance of the grass being cleared.
The length of the cord is also important. A longer cord requires greater engine power than a shorter cord of the same diameter.
Make sure that the cutter on the trimmer guard is intact. This is used to cut the cord to the correct length.
To increase the life of the cord it can be soaked in water for a couple of days before use. This will make the cord tougher so that it lasts longer.
Sharpening grass knifes and grass blades
See the cutting attachment packaging for correct sharpening instructions. Sharpen blades and knifes using a single-cut flat file.
Sharpen all edges equally to maintain the balance of the blade.
WARNING! Always discard a blade that is
!
bent, twisted, cracked, broken or damaged in any other way. Never attempt to straighten a twisted blade so that it can be reused. Only use original blades of the specified type.

FUEL HANDLING
Fuel safety
Never start the machine: 1 If you have spilled fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and
allow remaining fuel to evaporate.
2 If you have spilled fuel on yourself or your clothes,
change your clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water.
3 If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for
leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.
Transport and storage
Store and transport the machine and fuel so that there is no risk of any leakage or fumes coming into contact with sparks or open flames, for example, from electrical machinery, electric motors, electrical relays/ switches or boilers.
When storing and transporting fuel always use approved containers intended for this purpose.
When storing the machine for long periods the fuel tank must be emptied. Contact your local petrol station to find out where to dispose of excess fuel.
Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete service is carried out before long-term storage.
The transport guard must always be fitted to the cutting attachment when the machine is being transported or in storage.
Secure the machine during transport.
In order to prevent unintentional starting of the engine, the spark plug cap must always be removed during long-term storage, if the machine is not under close supervision and when performing all service measures.
WARNING! Take care when handling fuel.
!
Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosion and inhaling fumes.
Fuel
CAUTION! The machine is equipped with a two-stroke
engine and must always be run using a mixture of petrol and two-stroke oil. It is important to accurately measure the amount of oil to be mixed to ensure that the correct mixture is obtained. When mixing small amounts of fuel, even small inaccuracies can drastically affect the ratio of the mixture.
WARNING! Fuel and fuel fumes are
!
highly inflammable and can cause serious injury when inhaled or allowed to come in contact with the skin. For this reason observe caution when handling fuel and make sure there is adequate ventilation.
Petrol
CAUTION! Always use a quality petrol/oil mixture at least
90 octane (RON). If your machine is equipped with a catalytic converter (see chapter on Technical data) always use a good quality unleaded petrol/oil mixture. Leaded petrol will destroy the catalytic converter.
Use low-emission petrol, also known as alkylate petrol, if it is available.
Ethanol blended fuel, E10 may be used (max 10% ethanol blend). Using ethanol blends higher than E10 will create lean running condition which can cause engine damage.
The lowest octane recommended is 90 (RON). If you run the engine on a lower octane grade than 90 so­called knocking can occur. This gives rise to a high engine temperature, which can result in serious engine damage.
When working at continuous high revs a higher octane rating is recommended.
Two-stroke oil
For best results and performance use JONSERED two-stroke engine oil, which is specially formulated for our air-cooled two-stroke engines.
Never use two-stroke oil intended for water-cooled engines, sometimes referred to as outboard oil (rated TCW).
Never use oil intended for four-stroke engines.
A poor oil quality and/or too high oil/fuel ratio may jeopardise function and decrease the life time of catalytic converters.
Mixing ratio 1:50 (2%) with JONSERED two-stroke oil. 1:33 (3%) with oils class JASO FB or ISO EGB
formulated for air-cooled, two-stroke engines.

14 – English
FUEL HANDLING
Mixing
Always mix the petrol and oil in a clean container intended for fuel.
Always start by filling half the amount of the petrol to be used. Then add the entire amount of oil. Mix (shake) the fuel mixture. Add the remaining amount of petrol.
Mix (shake) the fuel mixture thoroughly before filling the machine’s fuel tank.
Do not mix more than one month’s supply of fuel at a time.
If the machine is not used for some time the fuel tank should be emptied and cleaned.
Clean the area around the fuel cap. Contamination in the tank can cause operating problems.
Ensure that the fuel is well mixed by shaking the container before filling the tank.
Fueling
!
WARNING! Taking the following precautions, will lessen the risk of fire:
Mix and pour fuel outdoors, where there are no sparks or flames.
Do not smoke or place hot objects near fuel.
Always shut off the engine before refuelling.
Always stop the engine and let it cool for a few minutes before refuelling.
When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly so that any excess pressure is released gently.
Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refuelling.
Always move the machine away from the refuelling area and source before starting.
If you have spilled fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and allow remaining fuel to evaporate.
Always use a fuel container with an anti-spill valve.
English 15
STARTING AND STOPPING
Check before starting
Check the blade to ensure that no cracks have formed at the bottom of the teeth or by the centre hole. The most common reason why cracks are formed is that sharp corners have been formed at the bottom of the teeth while sharpening or that the blade has been used with dull teeth. Discard a blade if cracks are found.
Never use the machine without a guard nor with a defective guard.
All covers must be correctly fitted and undamaged before you start the machine.
Starting and stopping
Check that the support flange is not cracked due to fatigue or due to being tightened too much. Discard the support flange if it is cracked.
Ensure the locking nut has not lost its captive force. The nut lock should have a locking force of at least 1.5 Nm. The tightening torque of the locking nut should be 35-50 Nm.
Check that the blade guard is not damaged or cracked. Replace the blade guard if it is exposed to impact or is cracked.
WARNING! The complete clutch cover and
!
shaft must be fitted before the machine is started, otherwise the clutch can come loose and cause personal injury.
Always move the machine away from the refuelling area and source before starting. Place the machine on a flat surface. Ensure the cutting attachment cannot come into contact with any object.
Make sure no unauthorised persons are in the working area. Otherwise there is a risk of serious personal injury. The safety distance is 15 meters.
Starting
Primer bulb: Press the air purge repeatedly until fuel
begins to fill the bulb. The bulb need not be completely filled.

WORKING TECHNIQUES
General working instructions
IMPORTANT! This section describes the basic safety precautions for
working with brush cutters and trimmers. If you encounter a situation where you are uncertain
how to proceed you should ask an expert. Contact your dealer or your service workshop.
Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond your capability.
You must understand the difference between forestry clearing, grass clearing and grass trimming before use.
Grass blades or grass knives may only be used when the J-handle is fitted. Clearing blades must never be used with the J-handle. Use the harness and attach it to the suspension ring when using grass blades.
Basic safety rules
1 Look around you:
To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot affect your control of the machine.
To ensure that people, animals, etc., do not come into contact with the cutting attachment or loose objects that are thrown out by the cutting attachment.
CAUTION! Do not use the machine unless you are able to call for help in the event of an accident.
2 Inspect the working area. Remove all loose objects,
such as stones, broken glass, nails, steel wire, string, etc. that could be thrown out or become wrapped around the cutting attachment.
3 Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as
dense fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc. Working in bad weather is tiring and often brings added risks, such as icy ground, unpredictable felling direction, etc.
4 Make sure you can move and stand safely. Check the
area around you for possible obstacles (roots, rocks, branches, ditches, etc.) in case you have to move suddenly. Take great care when working on sloping ground.
6 Always hold the machine with both hands. Hold the
machine on the right side of your body.
7 Keep the cutting attachment below waist level. 8 Switch off the engine before moving to another area.
Fit the transport guard before carrying or transporting the equipment any distance.
9 Never put the machine down with the engine running
unless you have it in clear sight.
WARNING! Neither the operator of the
!
!
machine nor anyone else may attempt to remove the cut material while the engine is running or the cutting equipment is rotating, as this can result in serious injury.
Stop the engine and cutting equipment before you remove material that has wound around the blade shaft as otherwise there is a risk of injury. The bevel gear can get hot during use and may remain so for a while afterwards. You could get burnt if you touch it.
WARNING! Watch out for thrown objects. Always wear approved eye protection. Never lean over the cutting attachment guard. Stones, rubbish, etc. can be thrown up into the eyes causing blindness or serious injury.
Keep unauthorised persons at a distance. Children, animals, onlookers and helpers should be kept outside the safety zone of 15 metres. Stop the machine immediately if anyone approaches. Never swing the machine around without first checking behind you to make sure no-one is within the safety zone.

Always slow the engine to idle speed after each working operation. Long periods at full throttle without any load on the engine can lead to serious engine damage.
WARNING! Sometimes branches or
!
!
grass get caught between the guard and cutting attachment. Always stop the engine before cleaning.
WARNING! Machines fitted with saw blades or grass blades can be thrown violently to the side when the blade comes into contact with a fixed object. This is called blade thrust. A blade thrust can be violent enough to cause the machine and/or operator to be propelled in any direction, and possibly lose control of the machine. Blade thrust can occur without warning if the machine snags, stalls or binds. Blade thrust is more likely to occur in areas where it is difficult to see the material being cut.
Avoid cutting with the area of the blade between the 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions. Because of the speed of rotation of the blade, blade thrust can occur if you attempt to cut thick stems with this area of the blade.
Grass clearing using a grass blade
Grass blades and grass knifes must not be used on woody stems.
A grass blade is used for all types of tall or coarse grass.
The grass is cut down with a sideways, swinging movement, where the movement from right-to-left is the clearing stroke and the movement from left-to­right is the return stroke. Let the left-hand side of the blade (between 8 and 12 o’clock) do the cutting.
Let the support cup rest lightly against the ground. It is used to protect the blade from hitting the ground.
Reduce the risk of material wrapping around the blade by following these instructions:
1Always work at full throttle. 2Avoid the previously cut material during the return
stroke.
Stop the engine, unclip the harness and place the machine on the ground before you start to collect the cut material.
Grass trimming with a trimmer head
Trimming
Hold the trimmer head just above the ground at an angle. It is the end of the cord that does the work. Let the cord work at its own pace. Never press the cord into the area to be cut.
The cord can easily remove grass and weeds up against walls, fences, trees and borders. However it can also damage sensitive bark on trees and bushes, and damage fence posts.
Reduce the risk of damaging plants by shortening the cord to 10-12 cm and reducing the engine speed.
Clearing
The clearing technique removes all unwanted vegetation. Keep the trimmer head just above the ground and tilt it. Let the end of the cord strike the ground around trees, posts, statues and the like. CAUTION! This technique increases the wear on the cord.
The cord wears quicker and must be fed forward more often when working against stones, brick, concrete, metal fences, etc., than when coming into contact with trees and wooden fences.
When trimming and clearing, you should use less than full throttle (80%) so that the cord lasts longer and to reduce the wear on the trimmer head.
If the blade is angled to the left when clearing grass, the grass will collect in a line, which makes it easier to collect, e.g. by raking.
Try to work rhythmically. Stand firmly with your feet apart. Move forward after the return stroke and stand firmly again.
English 19
WORKING TECHNIQUES
Cutting
The trimmer is ideal for cutting grass that is difficult to reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the cord parallel to the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the lawn and damage the tool.
Do not allow the trimmer head to constantly come into contact with the ground during normal cutting. Constant contact of this type can cause damage and wear to the trimmer head.
Sweeping
The fan effect of the rotating cord can be used for quick and easy clearing up. Hold the cord parallel to and above the area to be swept and move the tool side to side.
When cutting and sweeping you should use full throttle to obtain the best results.
IMPORTANT! To avoid unbalance and vibrations in handles trimmer
head cover need to be cleaned every time cord is refilled. In addition, check other part of the head if needed to be cleaned.

MAINTENANCE
Carburettor
Your Jonsered product has been designed and manufactured to specifications that reduce harmful exhaust fumes. The engine will be run in after it has used 8-10 tanks of fuel. To ensure that the engine runs at peak performance and produces as little harmful exhaust fumes as possible after the running-in period, ask your dealer/service workshop (which has a rev counter for this purpose) to adjust your carburettor.
Basic setting
The basic carburettor settings are adjusted during testing at the factory. The basic setting is richer than the optimal setting and should be maintained for the first few hours the machine is in use. The carburettor should then be finely adjusted. Fine adjustment should be carried out by a skilled technician.
CAUTION! If the cutting attachment rotates when the engine is idling the idle adjustment screw T should be turned anti-clockwise until the cutting attachment stops.
Adjustment of the idle speed
Before any adjustments are made, make sure that the air filter is clean and the air filter cover is fitted.
Adjust the idle speed using the idle adjustment screw T, if it is necessary to readjust. First turn the idle adjustment screw T clockwise until the cutting attachment starts to rotate. Then turn the screw anticlockwise until the cutting attachment stops. The idle speed is correctly adjusted when the engine will run smoothly in every position. The idle speed should also be well below the speed at which the cutting attachment starts to rotate.
T
Cooling system
To keep the working temperature as low as possible the machine is equipped with a cooling system.
1
2
The cooling system consists of: 1 Check and clean the cooling air openings. 2 Air intake through the crankcase (inside the tank). Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more
often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling system results in the machine overheating which causes damage to the piston and cylinder.
Spark plug
The spark plug condition is influenced by:
Incorrect carburettor adjustment.
An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type of oil).
A dirty air filter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug electrodes, which may result in operating problems and starting difficulties.
If the machine is low on power, difficult to start or runs poorly at idle speed: always check the spark plug first before taking any further action. If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and check that the electrode gap is 0,65 mm. The spark plug should be replaced after about a month in operation or earlier if necessary.
Recommended idle speed: See the Technical data section.
WARNING! If the idle speed cannot be
!
adjusted so that the cutting attachment stops, contact your dealer/service workshop. Do not use the machine until it has been correctly adjusted or repaired.
0,65
CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug type! Use of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/ cylinder. Check that the spark plug is fitted with a suppressor.

MAINTENANCE
Two-piece shaft
(GC2225C)
The drive shaft end in the lower shaft should be lubricated with grease every 30 hours. There is a risk that the drive shaft ends (splined coupling) on models with two-piece shafts will seize if they are not lubricated regularly.
Air filter
The air filter must be regularly cleaned to remove dust and dirt in order to avoid:
Carburettor malfunctions
Starting problems
Loss of engine power
Unnecessary wear to engine parts.
Excessive fuel consumption.
Cleaning the air filter
Close the choke valve by moving the choke control up.
Remove the air filter cover and take out the filter. Wash it clean in warm, soapy water. Clean also the inside of the filter cover by using air or a brush. Ensure that the filter is dry before refitting it.
An air filter that has been in use for a long time cannot be cleaned completely. The filter must therefore be replaced with a new one at regular intervals. A damaged air filter must always be replaced. Damaged, very dirty, or fuel­soaked air filter must always be replaced.
Bevel gear
The bevel gear is filled with the right quantity of grease at the factory. However, before using the machine you should check that the bevel gear is filled three-quarters full with grease. Use JONSERED special grease.
Clean the filter every 25 hours, or more regularly if conditions are exceptionally dusty.
22 – English
The grease in the bevel gear does not normally need to be changed except if repairs are carried out.
