Control, maintenance and service of
the machine‘s safety equipment

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

• All service and repairs to the machine require special

training.

• This applies especially to the machine‘s safety equip-

ment. If the machine does not meet any of the controls
listed below you should contact your service work-
shop.

• The purchase of one of our products guarantees that

professional repair and servicing will be carried out on
it. If the point of purchase is not one of our servicing
dealers, please ask for details of the closest service
workshop.

5. Muffler

1.

Never use a machine that
has a defective muffler.

2.

Check regularly that the
muffler is secure.

3.

If your muffler is fitted with
a spark arrest screen then
it should be cleaned
regularly. A blocked
screen leads to the engine
overheating with serious
damage as a result. Never
use a muffler with a
defective spark arrest
screen.

4. Vibration damping
system

• Check the vibration damping

element regularly for material
cracks and distortion.

• Check that the vibration

damping element is securely
attached between the engine
unit and the handlebar unit.

locked in the “idling position“
when the throttle trigger lock
is in its original position.

• Press in the throttle trigger

lock and make sure it returns
to its original position when
released.

• Ensure that the throttle and

throttle trigger lock move
easily and that their return
spring systems function.

• See section 

"Start". Start the

machine and apply full
throttle. Release the throttle
and check that the cutting
equipment stops and remains
at a standstill. If the cutting
equipment rotates with the
throttle in the idling position
then the carburetor‘s idling
setting must be checked. See
chapter 

“Maintenance“.

sure that the engine stops
