GENERAL WORKING INSTRUCTIONS

This section describes the basic safety pre­cautions for working with the hedgetrimmer. If
you encounter a situation where you are un­certain how to proceed, you should ask an ex­pert. Contact your authorised service dealer.
Avoid all usage which you consider to be be­yond your capability.

WARNING:

Never use a machine
without the possibility of calling for help in the
event of an accident.

BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

D

Observe your surroundings to ensure that
people, animals or other things cannot affect
your control of the machine and to ensure that
the above mentioned do not come into con­tact with the cutting equipment or objects that
can be thrown by the cutting equipment.

D

Avoid usage in unfavorable weather condi­tions. For example, thick fog, heavy rain,
strong winds or extreme cold, etc. To work in
bad weather conditions is tiring and can
create dangerous circumstances, e.g. slip­pery surfaces.

D

Make sure you can walk and stand safely.
Look out for any obstacles with unexpected
movement (roots, stones, branches, pits,
ditches, etc.) Take great care when working
on sloping ground.

D

The engine should be switched off before
moving. When moving over longer distances
and transporting, the transporting guard
should be used.

D

Never put the machine down with the engine
running unless you have good sight of it.

BASIC WORKING TECHNIQUES

As y ou become familiar with your unit, y ou will
be able to determine your own operating
pace. Conditions such as the type and size of
material being cut will regulate the speed and
time required for your job.

D

Allow the cutting blades to reach full speed
before entering the material to be cut.

D

Always work going away from people and
solid objects such as walls, large stones,
trees, automobiles, etc.

D

If the blade stalls, immediately stop the en­gine. Make sure the ignition switch is off, the
spark plug is disconnected, and the blade has
stopped moving before clearing jammed de­bris from the cutting blade. Inspect the blade
for damage and have it repaired or replaced
as needed.

D

Always keep the air vents clean. Stop the
unit, make sure the cutting blade has com­pletely stopped moving, and disconnect the
spark plug before cleaning.

SPECIAL NOTICE:

Exposure to vibrations
through prolonged use of gasoline powered
hand tools could cause blood vessel or nerve
damage in the fingers, hands, and joints of peo­ple prone to circulation disor ders or abnorm al
swelling. Prolonged use in cold weather has
been linked to blood vessel damage in other­wise healthy people. If symptoms occur such as
numbness, pain, loss of strength, change in skin
color or texture, or loss of feeling in the fingers,
hands, or joints, discontinue the use of this tool
and seek medical attention. An antivibration
system does not guarantee the avoidance of
these problems. Users who operate power tools
on a continual and regular basis must monitor
closely their physical condition and the condition
of this tool.

ASSEMBLY

NOTE:

It is normal for the fuel filter to rattle in

the empty fuel tank.

ASSEMBLY

No assembly is required.

OPERATION

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

WARNING:

Be sure to read the fuel
information in the safety rules before you be­gin. If you do not understand the safety rules,
do not attempt to fuel your unit.

FUELING ENGINE

WARNING:

Remove fuel cap slowly
when refueling.
This engine is certified to operate on un­leaded petrol. Before operation, petrol must

be mixed with a good quality 2-stroke air­cooled engine oil. Mix petrol and oil at a ratio
of 40:1 (2.5%). A 40:1 ratio is obtained by
mixing 5 liters of unleaded petrol with 0,125 li­ter of oil. DO NOT USE automotive oil or boat
oil. These oils will cause engine damage.
When mixing fuel, follow instructions printed
on oil container. Once oil is added to petrol,
shake container momentarily to assure that
the fuel is thoroughly mixed. Always read and
follow the safety rules relating to fuel before
fueling your unit.

IMPORTANT

Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture which leads to
separation and formation of acids during stor­age. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system
of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine
problems, empty the fuel system before stor­age for 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank,
start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next
season. Never use engine or carburetor
cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent
damage may occur.
