Preoperational Checks and Tune-Up
GEARS
•
In every 10-20 hours, inject a proper amount of grease through the grease
nipple installed in the Gear case of the Hedge Trimmer
BLADES
•
Stop the engine before lubricating the blades during the operation.
Long Term Storage
1. Clean every part, repair faulty sections, and apply a thin coat of oil on metalic parts to prevent rust.
2. If the Hedge Trimmer is to be stored for long periods, drain the fuel from the tank, then start the engine and keep the engine running
until it stops to consume all the fuel left in the carburetor.
3. Store the Hedge Trimmer in a place free from excessive humidity so as to prevent the dust from soiling the machine.
4. Remove the spark plug, inject a small amount of engine oil through the spark plug hole. Then pull the recoil starter a few times to put a
thin coat of oil on the cylinder. Install the spark plug again when the piston has stopped at a top dead point.
