CHINE´S SAFETY EQ
UIPMENT
General
This section descr
ibes the machine´s safety equipment, its
purpose, and how checks and maintenance should be carried
out to ensure that it operates correctly.
Thr
ottle lockout
The throttle tr
igger lock is designed to prevent accidental
operation of the throttle. When the lock (A) is pressed in this
releases the throttle (B).
The trigger lock remains pressed in as long as the throttle is
pressed. When the grip on the handle is released the throttle
trigger and the throttle trigger lock 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 control is locked at the idle setting
when the throttle lockout is released.
