MAINTENANCE

MAINTAINING THE GUIDE BAR

See Figure 47.

WARNING:

Before performing any maintenance, make sure the tool is unplugged from the power supply. Failure to comply could result in accidental starting and possible serious personal injury.

Every week of use, reverse the guide bar on the saw to distribute the wear for maximum bar life. The bar should be cleaned every day of use and checked for wear and damage.

Feathering or burring of the bar rails is a normal pro- cess of bar wear. Such faults should be smoothed with a file as soon as they occur.

A bar with any of the following faults should be replaced:

nWear inside the bar rails that permits the chain to lay over sideways

nBent guide bar

nCracked or broken rails

nSpread rails

Lubricate guide bars weekly with a sprocket at their tip. Using a grease syringe, lubricate weekly in the lubricating hole. Turn the guide bar and check that the lubrication holes and chain groove are free from impurities.

MOUNTING THE SAFE-T-TIP NOSE GUARD

See Figures 48 - 49.

nDisconnect chain saw from power supply.

nMount the SAFE-T-TIP on the bar nose.

nFit the locking rivet or tab in the recessed hole in the guide bar.

nTighten the screw with wrench until snug.

nFrom the snug position, tighten the screw an additional 3/4 of a turn using a wrench.

WARNING:

Although the guide bar comes with a SAFE-T- TIP antikickback device already installed, check the tightness of the mounting screw before each use to avoid possible serious personal injury.

At the heart of both models is a robust, high-performance electric motor that provides ample power for cutting through thick grass and weeds. The UT43122 features a 12 Amp motor, while the UT43102 has an equally impressive 10 Amp motor.

This technology ensures that the line is automatically advanced as needed, allowing for continuous cutting without the hassle of manual adjustments. As a result, users can focus on trimming rather than stopping to reload the line, which significantly increases productivity.

Both models are equipped with a 15-inch cutting path, enabling them to cover more ground in less time. This cutting width is augmented by a dual-line nylon string that offers superior cutting power. Additionally, the adjustable telescoping shaft allows users to customize the length of the trimmer to their preferred height, enhancing comfort during extended use.

Furthermore, the Homelite UT43122 and UT43102 boast a lightweight design, making them easy to maneuver around landscapes. The ergonomic handle features a comfortable grip, reducing fatigue during prolonged operation. These characteristics make them suitable for both professional landscapers tackling large areas and homeowners maintaining their yards.

In terms of durability, the construction of the Homelite trimmers is robust, ensuring they can withstand the rigors of outdoor use. The inclusion of a guard also protects the user from debris, promoting safety during operation.

In summary, the Homelite UT43122 and UT43102 string trimmers are equipped with powerful motors, an automatic feed system, and user-friendly features. Their lightweight design, adjustable shafts, and durable construction make them suitable for various trimming tasks, making them a valuable addition to any lawn care toolkit.
