1. Fold the thread in the middle
and place the middle of the
thread in the notch (45) of the
spools (18). Wind up the two
ends in the direction of the ar
-
row
which is shown on
the underside of the spool.
2. Then trap the end of each thread
in one of the grooves (46) on the
spool (18).
For threads which are 2 mm
thick, select the grooves which
are marked with the number 2,
and for threads which are 1.8
mm thick, select the grooves
marked 1.8.
Pull the threads tight and ensure
that they are parallel in the two
thread channels. Furthermore, the
thread spool must not be filled with
more than 2.5 m of thread in each
channel, as otherwise the automatic
thread mechanism will not function
correctly.
Adjusting the Carburettor
The carburettor is preset in the factory for
optimal performance. If subsequent adjust
-
ments are required, have them carried out
by a specialist workshop.
Removing blockages
Switch the device off and re-
move the spark plug connec-
tor before you work on the
cutting unit.
Wear protective gloves in order to
avoid cutting yourself.
Checking the coupling
Place the device on a firm level sur
-
face. Make sure that the cutting tool
does not touch either other objects
or the ground.
Before each use, check that the coupling is
working correctly when idling.
Start the device (see “Starting the en-
gine”) and carry out a visual check at a
sufficiently safe distance to verify that the
thread spool is not turning when the device
is idling.
