Cutting equipment

The cutter is designed and man

ufactured to withstand the

loads that edging of a lawn involves.

Check the cutting attachment for damage or cracks. A
damaged cutting attachment should always be replaced.

A non-balanced blade induces heavy vibrations that may
damage the machine.

!

W

ARNING! Always stop the engine

before you work on any part of the
cutting equipment. This continues to
move even after the throttle is released.
Check that the cutting equipment has
stopped completely and remove the HT
lead from the spark plug before you start
any work on it.
