Fuel filter
The fuel filter should be inspected after every 150 hours of
operation or after 3 months of use. Remove and clean the
fuel filter. Unscrew the fuel tank cap, clean it in water with
a mild detergent, dry and replace it.
Engine maintenance
The spark plug should undergo a technical inspection
after every 50 hours of operation. Check the colour of the
deposit at the end of the spark plug. The colour should be
brown. Remove the residue using a hard brush. Check the
distance between the electrodes and adjust it if necessary.
The correct distance is 0.7 to 0.8 mm.
Replacing the engine oil
Place the machine on a flat surface, switch it on and warm
up the engine for a few minutes. Unscrew the oil tank cap.
Unscrew the oil tank cap. Place a container to collect the
waste oil underneath the engine. Remove the oil drain
screw and drain all the oil. To protect against oil dripping
into the frame of the machine, it is recommended to use
a pipe to bring the oil directly into the waste oil container.
Check the drain screw, gasket, oil plug and ring. If these
parts are damaged or worn, they must be replaced. Replace
and tighten the drain screw. After this operation, add fresh
oil to the upper level on the dipstick.
Air filter
The air filter should be inspected for technical condition. It
should be unscrewed and cleaned or replaced with a new
one. The filter should be washed with water and a mild
detergent, dried and replaced. Do not start the engine with
the air filter disassembled.
Cover the terminals with antioxidant grease before
reconnecting and tightening them.
Lubrication
In the HT-HECTOR 420 every 50 working hours, the cutting
element shaft bearings should be lubricated.
Storage
Before storing the machine, remember to do the following.
1.
Disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental
start.
2.
Clean the machine and dispose of the chips.
3.
Leave the machine on a flat surface in a well-
ventilated room out of reach of direct sunlight.
4. Do not store the machine with ignition sources
present, such as a stove, gas or electric heater, etc.
5.
Do not store the machine in places where exhaust or
toxic gases can enter the living quarters.
7.
Put the covers on the loading hopper and outlet
chute.
8.
If the machine is not to be used for more than 30
days, drain the tank and the carburettor.
Unscrew the spark plug and pour approximately 5
ml of engine oil through the cylinder plug hole. With
the switch in the OFF position, gently pull the starter
cord several times. Screw back the spark plug and
pull the starter cord until you feel resistance, and do
not pull any more.
Transport
During transport:
•
switch off the machine, close the fuel valve and
disconnect the spark plug wire
•
drain the fuel tank
•
put the covers on the loading hopper and outlet
chute
•
transport the machine in the working position
•
transport the machine across small distances holding
it by the handle, slightly tilting the machine and
resting its weight on the wheels
SAFE REMOVAL OF BATTERIES AND RECHARGEABLE
BATTERIES
12V / 9Ah batteries are installed in the devices. Remove
used batteries from the device using the same procedure
by which you installed them. Recycle batteries with the
appropriate organisation or company.
DISPOSING OF USED DEVICES
Do not dispose of this device in municipal waste systems.
Hand it over to an electric and electrical device recycling
and collection point. Check the symbol on the product,
instruction manual and packaging. The plastics used
to construct the device can be recycled in accordance
with their markings. By choosing to recycle you are
making a significant contribution to the protection of our
environment. Contact local authorities for information on
your local recycling facility.

3.
When you have finished work, switch off the machine
by turning the engine switch to the OFF position.
Disconnect the spark plug wire before moving the
machine, emptying the bag, removing locks, refilling
the fluids, or other maintenance or repair work.
Directions for use
•
Load the material slowly. If the engine makes an
unusual noise, it means which the material is loaded
too quickly.
•
Roots and other dirty materials will dull and damage
the knives.
•
Remember to frequently remove chips from the
machine. Otherwise they can cause a blockage.
•
Avoid grinding wet material as it may clog the
machine. If grinding the wet material is necessary, it
should be separated from the dry material.
Grinding the material through the additional loading
hopper (HT-HECTOR 212 only)
1.
Remove small twigs and leaves. This will facilitate
inserting the material into the additional hopper.
2.
Insert the material into the hopper – add the thicker
end downwards and let the material get caught up.
The material should be loaded piece by piece.
3.
When you have finished work, switch off the machine
by turning the engine switch to the OFF position.
Directions for use
•
Do not insert material with a diameter larger than the
one given in the technical data table.
•
It is better to shred crush fresh green wood. The
knives will stay sharp longer.
3.4. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
a)
Make sure the machine has stopped completely and
disconnect the spark plug wire, before letting free
a jam or clog, emptying the bag, filling the gas tank
or performing any maintenance or repairs.
b)
Use only non-corrosive cleaners to clean the surface.
c)
After cleaning the device, all parts should be dried
completely before using it again.
d)
Store the unit in a dry, cool place, free from moisture
and direct exposure to sunlight.
e)
Never spray the device with water.
f)
Do not allow water to get inside the device through
vents in the housing of the device.
g)
Clean the vents with a brush and compressed air.
h)
The device must be regularly inspected to check its
technical efficiency and spot any damage.
i)
Use a soft cloth for cleaning.
j)
In case of deterioration of the efficiency of grinding,
the blades should be rotated, sharpened or replaced.
k) Clean the chips which have accumulated on the
machine and around the motor with a brush or
vacuum cleaner.
l)
When you have finished work, always remove all
leftovers from loading hoppers and outlet chute.
Every time you start the machine:
•
Check which there are no loose, not properly
tightened or damaged parts
•
Check which the frame of the machine is not
damaged and has no cracks
•
Check the technical condition of the blades
•
Check the condition of the engine oil and fuel
Battery maintenance
Batteries installed in the machines do not require refilling or
special maintenance. Make sure that the terminals are not
covered with dust and rust. Corrosion can cause improper
battery operation and may be dangerous. If you notice
any signs of corrosion, disconnect terminals and remove
the rust cleaning the terminals and connectors with lye –
a solution of baking soda and water (sodium bicarbonate).
