Do not smoke while refueling. This is potentially dangerous as it may ignite the fuel and
cause an explosion.
Take care not to spill fuel. When refueling the hedge trimmer ensure that the motor has
been switched off. Prevent the spilling of fuel as this may also ignite with the hot motor.
Never refuel whilst the engine running.
Be careful where you store the hedge trimmer. Store the hedge trimmer in a dry area
away from flammable liquids.
Keep your distance. The hedge trimmer emits exhaust fumes. Ensure bystanders keep a
safe distance.
Ensure you use oil-mix fuel. Ensure that you mix 40 parts unleaded fuel to 1 part 2-stroke
oil. If not, the engine will overheat and cause damage to your hedge trimmer.
7 SAFETY WARNINGS GASOLINE
WARNING: Use extra care in handling fuels. They are flammable and the

Use only an approved container.
Never remove the fuel cap or add fuel with the power source running. Allow engine
exhaust components to cool before refueling.
Do not smoke.
Never refuel the machine indoors.
Never store the machine or fuel containers inside, where is an open flame, such as a
water heater.

MACHINE′S SAFETY EQUIPMENT
WARNING! Never use a machine with faulty safety equipment. The
machine’s safety equipment must be checked and maintained as described
in this section. If your machine fails any of these checks contact your
service agent to get it repaired.
8.1
Throttle lockout
The throttle lockout is designed to prevent accidental operation of the throttle control.
When you press the lock-out (A) (i.e. when you grasp the handle) it releases the throttle
trigger (B). When you release the handle the throttle control and the throttle lockout both
move back to their original positions. This movement is controlled by two independent
return springs. This arrangement means that the throttle control is automatically locked at
the idle setting. (Fig. 1)
Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle setting when the throttle lockout is
released. (Fig. 2)
Press the throttle lockout and make sure it returns to its original position when you release
it. (Fig. 3)
Check that the throttle control and throttle lockout move freely and that the return springs
work properly. (Fig. 4)
