Ask your dealer for help when choosing protective equipment.

Machine’s safety equipment

This section describes the machine’s safe- ty equipment, its purpose, and how checks and maintenance should be carried out to ensure that it operates correctly. See the “Know your trimmer ” 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 ser- vicing dealer.

Throttle lock-out

The throttle lock--out is designed to prevent accidental operation of the throttle control. When you press the lock--out (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 lock--out both move back to their original positions. This movement is controlled by two independent return springs. This ar- rangement means that the throttle control is automatically locked at the idle setting.
