SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Personal protective equipment MPORTANT INFORMATION • A clearing saw, brushcutter or trimmer used incorrectly or carelessly can become a dangerous tool, that can cause serious or fatal injury to the operator or others. It is extremely important that you read and understand the content of this manual. • When using a trimmer, personal protective equipment approved by the appropriate authorities must be used.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 3. Cutting attachment guard 4. Vibration damping system This guard is intended to prevent objects from being thrown towards the operator and to protect the operator from unintentionel contact with the cutting attachment. Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping system, which is designed to give as vibration-free and comfortable use as possible. Use of incorrectly wound cord or incorrect cutting equipment increases the level of vibration.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 5. Muffler The muffler is designed to give the lowest possible noise level and to direct the engine‘s exhaust fumes away from the operator. Muffler fitted with catalytic converter is also designed to reduce harmful exhaust components. In countries that have a warm and dry climate the risk of fire is obvious. We have therefore fitted certain mufflers with a spark arrest screen. Make sure that your muffler is fitted with this kind of screen.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Control, maintenance and service of the machine‘s safety equipment IMPORTANT INFORMATION • All service and repairs to the machine require special training. • This applies especially to the machine‘s safety equipment.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 6. Cutting equipment 7. Locking nut This section describes how through correct maintenance and through using the right type of cutting equipment you can: • Reduce the machine‘s tendency to kickback • Obtain maximum cutting capacity. • Increase the service life of the cutting equipment. • Protect your hand from injury when assembling, use the blade guard as protection when tightening with a socket spanner. Tighten the nut by turning against the direction of rotation.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Cutting equipment IMPORTANT INFORMATION The section describes how through correct maintenance and through using the right type of cutting equipment you can reduce the machine‘s tendency to kickback, obtain maximum clearing capacity and increase the service life of the cutting equipment. • Generally smaller machines require a small trimmer head and vice versa.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS General safety instructions Fuel safety • Always use a fuel container with an anti-spill valve. • Never fill the machine while the engine is running. Always stop the engine and let it cool for a few minutes before refuelling. • Provide good ventilation when filling or mixing fuel (petrol and 2-stroke oil). • Move the machine at least 3 m from the filling position before starting. • Never start the machine: a) If you have spilt fuel on it. Wipe up all spillage.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS General working instructions IMPORTANT INFORMATION • This section takes up the basic safety precautions for working with the trimmer. • If you encounter a situation where you are uncertain how to proceed you should ask an expert. Contact your dealer or your service workshop. • Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond your capability. Basic working techniques • Always drop to idling speed after each working operation.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Trimming • The trimmer is ideal to cut grass that is difficult to reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the cord parallel to the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the lawn and damage the tool. • Do not allow the trimmer head to constantly come into contact with the ground during normal cutting procedures. Constant contact can cause damage and wear to the trimmer head.

ASSEMBLY Assembling the J-handle • Unscrew the handle and plastic cover from the handlebar bracket. • Place the loop handlebar with the handlebar holder on the handlebar bracket. Fit the handle and plastic cover. Do not tighten too tight. • Put on the harness and hang the trimmer in the suspension hook. Now finely adjust so that the trimmer gives a comfortable working position when it‘s attached to the harness. Tighten the handle.
ASSEMBLY • Fit the guard (A) intended for use with the trimmer head. Secure using four bolts (L) and the support plate (M) as shown in the diagram. A • Fit the disc drive (B) on the output axle. L B C M • Turn the blade axle until one of the disc drive’s holes aligns with the corresponding hole in the gear housing. • Insert the locking pin (C) into the hole to lock the axle. • Screw on the trimmer head (H) in the direction of rotation. • Dismantling takes place in the reverse order.
FUEL HANDLING Fuel mixture NOTE! The machine is fitted with a two-stroke engine and must always be run on a mixture of petrol and two-stroke oil. It is important to measure the quantity of oil accurately, to ensure the correct mixture ratio. Small discrepancies in the amount of oil have a great bearing on the proportions of the fuel mixture when mixing small amounts of fuel. ! WARNING! Always provide good ventilation when handling fuel.
START AND STOP Control before starting For reasons of safety follow these recommendations! • Check the blade to ensure that no cracks have formed at the bottom of the teeth or by the centre hole. The most common reason why cracks are formed is that sharp corners have been formed at the bottom of the teeth while sharpening or that the blade has been used with dull teeth. Discard a blade if cracks are found. • Check that the support flange is not cracked due to fatigue or due to being tightened too much.
