Safety Usage, Blade | McCulloch 248530, 95390024200 guide

C.SAFETYUSAGE

This product must be held to the right of the operator’s body.

This will ensure exhaust fumes are directed away from the operator and will not be obstructed by the operator’s clothing. If you have not used a trimmer before, spend some time in becoming familiar with the controls and method of usage before operation.

Check the machine carefully before using it.

Make sure that there are no loosened screws, damaged parts or fuel leakages.

Replace damaged or excessively worn accessories (blades, string heads, guards).

Ensure all maintenance or repair work is carried out by an authorised service center.

N.B. In order to maintain performance and safety, be sure to use original spare parts and accessories.

Avoid using the trimmer over excessively long periods of time.

Excessive amounts of vibration can be harmful.

1)Remove from the working area grit, debris, ropes, metal parts or any other object which might get entangled around the rotating parts or be dangerously projected.

Use only the correct accessory recommended for the type of vegetation to be cut. Do not let the rotating blade contact any foreign object such as stones, rocks, cans etc.

Secure hair to keep it above shoulder height. Before starting to work fit the harness. Adjust harness with the buckle so that the trimmer is well balanced on your right side and the blade or string head is parallel to the ground. Always maintain a firm foothold and a good balance while using the machine. Do not move backwards while you work as obstacles may not be visible.

The fitting of the safety pole barrier is obligatory on units equipped with a delta shaped handle when used with a metal blade.

The purpose of this safety pole barrier is to maintain a safe distance between the metal blade and the user under all normal or exceptional circumstances.

2)Harness ring (B) must never be moved from its original position to avoid unbalancing the unit.

Front handles can be separately adjusted to make usage easier on units fitted with “U” shaped handles.

3)The following accessories can be assembled to your trimmer: a) blade, b) nylon string head.

Do not attach any blade to a unit without proper installation of all required parts. Failure to use the proper parts can cause the blade to fly off and seriously injure the operator and/or bystanders.

a)WHEN USING A BLADE ENSURE THE CORRECT GUARD IS FITTED.

b)WHEN USING A NYLON STRING HEAD ENSURE THE CORRECT GUARD IS FITTED.

When using the unit always hold the front part of the machine (blade or nylon string head) below your waist.

NYLON STRING HEAD:

Always make sure it has been correctly assembled and fitted.

The nylon head is suitable to cut grass and weeds wherever there might be obstacles like trees, fences or walls.

The nylon string head also reduces the likelihood of damaging small plants and trees bark.

Only use flexible, nonfilament nylon line in the nylon line head as specified by the manufacturer. Never use metallic line which could break off and become a dangerous projectile.

BLADE:

Always make sure it has been correctly fitted.

When fitting or changing a cutting device, ensure you follow the instructions in the section “Blade or nylon string head assembly” with extreme precision. Fit these cutting devices using all and only the parts as described, and in the correct order.

3a) BUMP FEED

The length of the nylon line wears down naturally as you work. When this happens, tap the head on the ground while it is turning. A further length of line will automatically be fed out. The knife integrated in the plastic guard then ensures the line is cut to the optimum length. (Too much line reduces engine speed and cutting performance.)

4)BLADES: you can cut any type of grass, brushwood or shrub.

Operate the machine like a sickle always cutting at full throttle.

5)WARNING: always use a well sharpened blade.

A blade with worn teeth besides providing poor performance might also generate a sudden thrust. This can result in a violent sideways kick caused when the blade touches against wood or solid bodies, such thrust might then cause the operator to loose control of the machine itself. Never attempt to work with a damaged blade but replace it with a new one.

THRUST: can occur when using any type of

circular blade within the risk area: therefore it is advisable to cut using the remaining area of the blade.
