STARTING AND STOPPING

Check before starting

SCheck the blade to ensure that no cracks have formed at the bottom of the teeth or by the centre hole. The most common rea- son why cracks are formed is that sharp corners have been formed at the bottom of the teeth while sharpening or that the blade has been used with dull teeth. Discard a blade if cracks are found.

SCheck that the support flange is not cracked due to fatigue or due to being tightened too much. Discard the support flange if it is cracked.

SEnsure the locking nut has not lost its cap- tive force. The nut lock should have a locking force of at least 1.5 Nm. The tight- ening torque of the locking nut should be 35--50 Nm.

SCheck that the trimmer head and trimmer guard are not damaged or cracked. Replace the trimmer head or trimmer guard if they have been exposed to impact or are cracked.

SNever use the machine without a guard nor with a defective guard.

SAll covers must be correctly fitted and un- damaged before you start the machine.

Starting and stopping

WARNING: The complete clutch, clutch cover, and shaft must be fitted before the machine is started, otherwise parts could come loose and cause personal injury.

Always move the machine away from the refueling area before starting. Place the machine on a flat surface. Ensure the cutting at- tachment cannot come into contact with any object.

Make sure no unauthorized persons are in the working area, otherwise there is a risk of serious personal injury. The safety distance is 15 metres.

Cold engine

Primer bulb: Press the primer bulb 10 times until fuel begins to fill the bulb. The primer bulb need not be completely filled.

Choke: Move the blue engine choke lever over to the closed position.

Starting

Hold the body of the machine on the ground using your left hand (CAUTION! Not with your foot!).

Firmly grip the starter rope handle with your right hand. DO NOT squeeze throttle trigger. Slowly pull out the cord until you feel some resistance (the starter pawls grip); then quickly and powerfully pull the cord.

Never wrap the starter cord around your hand.

Repeat pulling the cord until the engine attempts to start. Move the blue engine choke lever to the ½ position. Pull starter rope until engine runs. Move the blue engine choke lever to the opened position.
