2.5.5.2 Replacing the V-belt
Always replace the V-belt
with a new one whenever the belt shows signs of cracking or tearing and whenever the belt is so worn that it
can no longer be tightened using tensioners. The exact procedure for changing the belt is not included here because it would exceed the
scope of this manual. When replacing, follow the instructions given in
Pic.9
Ensure that the belt path around all leading
components is followed!
If you are not sufficiently technically competent, assign this task to a professional service centre.
2.5.5.3 Checking brake operation and adjusting the brake
Check the operation of the automatic brake after every 10 hours of use. You can perform regular checks when working.
Whenever the
tool drive clutch lever is released, the automatic brake must stop the rotating work tool within 5 seconds.
Do not continue working unless you repair the defect on the automatic brake!
If you are not sufficiently technically competent, assign this task to a professional service centre.
If the brake does not stop the rotating tool within the specified time, the brake cable

on
Pic.11
adjustment screw is attached on the brake cable (
B
on
Pic.12
) to the frame, should be turned in the opposite direction of the arrow
(towards the frame) so that the axial clearance of the cable in the adjustment screw is 1 mm. Check the operation of the automatic brake.
If the screw
B
when fully tightened does not achieve sufficient braking, screw in the brake cable adjustment screw (
B
on
Pic.14
) on the
handlebars so the cable axial clearance in the adjustment screw is 1 mm and subsequently recheck the operation of the automatic brake
If the brake fails to brake sufficiently even after adjustment, contact a professional service centre. Do not
continue operating the machine without a functional brake under any circumstances!
