use. To avoid burning yourself do not touch the gear
housing.
Blade and blade guard
The outer part of the blades (1) are shaped as blade
guards. The blade guard is intended to protect against
any part of the body coming into contact with the blades.
Check that the blade guard is not damaged or distorted.
Replace the cutting unit if it is bent or damaged.
WARNING! Bear in mind that: The
exhaust fumes from the engine are hot
and may contain sparks which can start
a fire. Never start the machine indoors or
near combustible material!
WARNING! The inside of the muffler
contain chemicals that may be
carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these
elements in the event of a damaged
muffler.
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic
