B - Description of the safety devices on the machine, Controls and

maintenance necessary to ensure safe conditions

WARNING! Never use the machine for any reason with its safety devices out of order

•This section describes the safety devices installed on the machine, the controls and maintenance to perform to keep them in perfect working order.

•The general description section will help you to identify the parts described in this section.

•The risk of accidents is greatly increased if maintenance is not performed regularly or is not performed professionally. In case of doubts, contact an authorized service center.

B1 Safety lever

•This device was developed to prevent acciden- tal pressing of the throttle control trigger A. The trigger A only works if it is pressed at the same time as the safety lever B. When the handle is released, two separate springs return the throt- tle trigger A and the safety lever B automatically to their original positions.

B1 Stop button

•When the Stop button C is pressed in the direc- tion indicated by the symbol, the engine shuts down.

•To check correct operation, start the engine and make sure it shuts down when the Stop button C is switched to the Stop position.

B2 Blade guide

•The blade guide (A) is an important device developed to prevent accidental contact between parts of the body and the blades.

•Periodically, check the conditions of the device and have it replaced, if necessary, by an author- ized service center.

B3 Hand guard

•The hand guard (B) prevents any accidental contact of the hands with the blade unit.

ENGLISH - 2

•Periodically, and always after any violent impact to the guard, check its conditions.

B3 Safety lever on front handle

•This hedge trimmer is equipped with a safety device (C) that greatly reduces the risk of acci- dents, because if the machine is not gripped with both hands, this safety device prevents the engine from racing even if the accelerator is pressed all the way down, and holds the blades locked.

•To check correct operation of this important device, try to press the accelerator all the way down without gripping the front handle. Normally, the engine should not race and the blades should not move, otherwise the device is not working correctly and the machine should be taken promptly to a service center.

B4 Vibration damping system

•The vibration damping system reduces the transfer of vibrations by means of springs and shock absorbers in rubber located between the engine/blades and the handles on the machine.

•Check regularly that the springs and rubber shock absorbers are properly mounted and do not exhibit any cracks or distortion.

B5 Muffler

•The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum and to direct the engine exhaust fumes away from the user.

•Comply with the following procedures for safe use of the hedge trimmer.

• CAUTION! The muffler can get very hot during use and remain so for some time after stopping. Contact of the area around the muffler can result in burns to the skin.

249350, 63, 65, 95390000700, 95390000600 specifications

The McCulloch HC70, HC65, and the models 95390000600, 95390000700, and 249350 are part of the renowned McCulloch line of hedge trimmers, known for their exceptional performance and user-friendly technologies. These models combine power, precision, and comfort, making them ideal for both hobbyists and professional landscapers.

One of the standout features of these hedge trimmers is their robust engine performance. The HC70 and HC65 are equipped with a powerful two-stroke engine that delivers enough torque to handle tough trimming tasks. This means users can easily cut through dense hedges and shrubs without worrying about the tool stalling or losing power mid-cut. The 95390000600 and 95390000700 models also emphasize engine efficiency, providing reliable cutting power while maintaining lower fuel consumption.

Another key characteristic of these models is their dual-action blades, which offer a sharp, precise cut. The blades operate on a dual-action mechanism, reducing vibration and allowing for smooth operation. This feature not only enhances cutting efficiency but also minimizes fatigue during extended use, making it easier for users to achieve a clean and professional finish on their hedges.

Ergonomics is also a focal point in the design of the McCulloch hedge trimmers. With adjustable grips and lightweight constructions, these models ensure user comfort, reducing strain on the arms and shoulders. The HC70 and HC65, for example, come with a rotating rear handle that allows for greater maneuverability and ease of handling, especially in tight spaces or when working at different angles.

Safety features are prioritized in the design of these trimmers. They are outfitted with protective guards and features such as quick-stop technology, which helps ensure that the blades stop moving immediately when the trigger is released. This enhances safety, particularly for novice users or in residential settings where children and pets may be present.

Finally, McCulloch’s emphasis on durability is evident in the construction of these models. Designed to withstand wear and tear, the hedge trimmers feature high-quality materials that can endure the rigors of outdoor use, ensuring longevity and reducing the need for frequent replacements.

In conclusion, the McCulloch HC70, HC65, along with models 95390000600, 95390000700, and 249350, represent a top-tier choice for anyone looking to maintain their outdoor spaces efficiently and safely. With powerful engines, precision blades, ergonomic designs, and robust safety features, these hedge trimmers are an essential addition to any gardening toolkit.
