General
This section describes the machine
’
s safety equipment,
its purpose, and how checks and maintenance should be
carried out to ensure that it operates correctly.
VIBRATION DAMPING SYSTEM
Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping
system that is designed to minimize vibration
and make operation easier.
The machine’s vibration damping system reduces the
transfer of vibration between the engine unit/cutting
equipment and the machine’s handle unit.
The engine body, including the cutting equipment, is
insulated from the handles by vibration damping units.
Regularly check the vibration damping units for cracks
or deformation.
Make sure the vibration damping units are securely
attached to the engine unit and handle unit.
Keep the handles clean and dry.
STOP SWITCH
Use the stop switch to switch off the engine.
O = OFF / I = ON
Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when
you move the stop switch to the stop setting.
MUFFLER
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a
minimum and to direct exhaust fumes away from
the user.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For mufflers it is very important that you follow the
instructions on checking, maintaining and servicing
your machine. See instructions under the heading
Checking, maintaining and servicing the machine’s
safety equipment. Never use a machine that has a faulty
muffler. Regularly check that the muffler is securely
attached to the machine.
WARNING!
NEVER USE A MACHINE THAT HAS
FAULTY SAFETY EQUIPMENT
MACHINE’S SAFETY EQUIPMENT
WARNING!
THE MUFFLER GETS VERY
HOT IN USE AND REMAINS SO
FOR A SHORT TIME AFTERWARDS. DO NOT TOUCH THE
MUFFLER IF IT IS HOT!
WARNING!
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.
THROTTLE LOCKOUT
The throttle lockout is designed to prevent accidental
operation of the throttle.
When the throttle lockout
(A) is pressed in this
releases the throttle trigger
(B). The throttle lockout
remains pressed in as long
as the throttle trigger is
pressed. When the grip
on the handle is released
the throttle trigger and
the throttle lockout both
return to their original
positions. This is controlled by two independent return
spring systems. This means that the throttle trigger is
automatically locked in the idle position.
Make sure the throttle trigger is locked at the idle
setting when the throttle lockout is released.
Press the throttle lockout and make sure it returns to
its original position when you release it.
Check that the throttle trigger and throttle lockout
move freely and that the return springs work properly.
Start the power cutter and apply full throttle. Release
the throttle trigger and check that the cutting blade
stops and remains stationary. If the cutting blade
rotates when the throttle is in the idle position you
should check the carburetor’s idle adjustment.
