General working instructions

IMPORTANT!

This section describes the basic safety precautions for working with clearing saws 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.

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.

2Do 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.

3Make 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.

4Switch off the engine before moving to another area. Fit the transport guard before carrying or transporting the equipment any distance.

5Never put the machine down with the engine running unless you have it in clear sight.

Basic working techniques

•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.

Grass trimming using a trimmer head and plastic blades

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 so that the cord lasts longer and to reduce the wear on the trimmer head.
