WARNING |
|
The product is equipped with a centrifugal clutch |
|
mechanism, so the cutting attachment begins to ro- |
|
tate as soon as the engine is started by putting the | G |
throttle into the start position. When starting the en- | B |
gine, place the product onto the ground in a flat clear |
|
area and hold it firmly in place so as to ensure that |
|
neither the cutting part nor the throttle come into con- |
|
tact with any obstacle when the engine starts. |
