Starting
For specific starting instructions, see the
appropriate section of your MultiEngine
and MultiTool manuals.
Place the power tool on firm ground or
other solid surface in an open area.
Maintain good balance and secure
footing.
Once the engine has started,
immediately blip the throttle trigger,
which should release the starting throttle
and allow the engine to slow down to
idle.
See also the safety precautions on
Starting in the instruction manual of the
MultiEngine.
During Operation
Holding and Controlling the Power
Tool
Always hold the unit firmly with both
hands on the handles while you are
working. Wrap your fingers and thumbs
around the handles, keeping the
handles cradled between your thumb
and forefinger. Keep your hands in this
position to have your power tool under
control at all times.
Warning!
Do not attach any MultiTool to a unit
without proper installation of all required
parts. Failure to use the proper parts
may cause the attachments to fly off and
seriously injure the operator or
bystanders.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from thrown
objects and contact with the attachment,
never operate your power tool without a
properly mounted deflector.
Check your MultiTool instruction man-
ual to ensure you are using the
appropriate deflector for the MultiTool
mounted.
Warning!
Start the engine at least 10 feet (3 m)
from the fueling spot, outdoors only.
Warning!
Always stand to one side of the unit to
avoid the risk of injury from contact with
the rotating MultiTool.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, be absolutely sure that the
MultiTool is clear of you and all other
obstructions and objects, including the
ground, because when the engine starts
at starting-throttle, engine speed will be
fast enough for the clutch to engage and
move the MultiTool.
Warning!
Your power tool is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when
starting.

Warning!
Never attempt to oper-
ate your power tool with
one hand. Loss of con-
trol of the power tool
may result in serious or
fatal injury. To reduce
the risk of injury, keep hands and feet
away from the MultiTool. Never touch a
moving MultiTool with your hand or any
other part of your body.
