It is extremely important that you read and understand the
contents of this operator’s manual.
You must use approved personal protective equipment

equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will
reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen. Ask
your dealer for help in choosing the right equipment.

Mac hine ′ s safety equipment
This section descr ibes the machine ′ s safety equipment, its
purpose, and how checks and maintenance should be carried
out to ensure that it operates correctly. See the ”What is
what?” section to locate where this equipment is positioned
on your machine.
The life span of the machine can be reduced and the risk of
accidents can increase if machine maintenance is not carried
out correctly and if service and/or repairs are not carried out
professionally. If you need further information please contact
your nearest service workshop.
IMPORTANT!
All servicing and repair work on the machine requires
special training. This is especially true of the machine ′ s
safety equipment. If your machine fails any of the checks
described below you must contact your service agent.
When you buy any of our products we guarantee the
availability of professional repairs and service. If the retailer
who sells your machine is not a servicing dealer, ask him for
the address of your nearest service agent.
Press the throttle lockout and make sure it returns to its
original position when you release it.
Check that the throttle control and throttle lockout move freely
and that the return springs work properly.
See instructions under the heading Start. Start the hedge
trimmer and apply full throttle. Release the throttle trigger and
check that the blades stop and remain stationary. If the blades
move when the throttle trigger is in the idle position then the
carburettor idle setting must be adjusted. See instructions
under the heading Maintenance.
Stop s witch
Use the stop s witch to switch off the engine.
ARNING! Never use a machine with faulty
safety equipment. The machine’s safety
!
equipment must be checked and maintained

fails any of these checks contact your
service agent to get it repaired.
Thr ottle lockout
The throttle loc kout is designed to prevent accidental
operation of the throttle control. When you press the lock (A)
(i.e. when you grasp the handle) it releases the throttle control
(B). When you release the handle the throttle control and the
throttle lockout both move back to their original positions. This
movement is controlled by two independent return springs.
This arrangement means that the throttle control is
automatically locked at the idle setting.
A
B
Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle setting
when the throttle lockout is released.
Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when you
move the stop switch to the stop setting.
Muffl er
The m uffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user. A muffler
fitted with a catalytic converter is also designed to reduce
harmful exhaust gases.

T
In countr ies that have a warm and dry climate there is a
significant risk of fire. We therefore fit certain mufflers with a
spark arrestor mesh. Check whether the muffler on your
machine is fitted with this kind of mesh.
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.
Blades
o ensure good cutting results it is important that the contact
pressure between the blades is correct. The contact pressure
is adjusted by turning the screws on the underside of the bar
clockwise as far as they will go. Then turn the screws
anticlockwise a 1/4 turn. Lock the screws using the locking nut
on the top of the bar. Check that the screws are loose enough
to allow the washers under the screw heads to slide sideways.
When the blades are correctly adjusted the play between the
blades should be 0,2–0,4 mm, measured at the screws.
The edges of the blades are too hard to be filed. Dull blades
should be sharpened using a grinder.
Replace the blades if they are bent or damaged.
Gear
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the
machine.
If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark arrestor
mesh this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked mesh will
cause the engine to overheat and may lead to serious
damage.
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic
converters get very hot during use and
!
remain so for some time after stopping. This
also applies at idle speed. Contact can result
in burns to the skin. Remember the risk of
fire!
The gear housing gets hot when the machine has been in
use. To avoid burning yourself do not touch the gear housing.
–
WARNING! The inside of the muffler contain
chemicals that may be carcinogenic. Avoid
!
contact with these elements in the event of a
damaged muffler.
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!
