5. Assembly
5.1 Mounting the blade guard hood
The cutting blade guard hood must be
fi
tted if you
wish to work with the cutting blade. The guard
hood for the cutting blade must be installed as
shown in Figures 10-11.
5.2 Joining the drive rod mechanism to the
connecting piece (Fig. 4-7)
Fit the handle screw (Item 10) as shown in Fig.
4. Open the handle screw and push the drive rod
mechanism (Item 4) into the connecting piece
(Item 5). Make sure that the centering lever (Item
R) latches in the guide hole (Item H). Tighten the
handle screw. To take apart, undo the handle
screw. Press the centering lever and simultane-
ously pull the drive rod mechanism out of the
connecting piece.
5.3 Fitting / Replacing the cutting blade
The procedure for
fi
tting the cutting blade is
shown in Figures 12-18. To dismantle, proceed in
reverse order.
•
Fit the carrier plate 30) onto the spline shaft
(Fig. 13)
•
Secure the cutting blade (1) on the carrier
plate (Fig. 14)
•
Place the pressure plate (31) over the thread
of the spline shaft (Fig. 15)
•
Plug on the cover of the pressure plate (32)
(Fig. 16)
•
Look for the hole in the carrier plate, line up
with the notch underneath and lock with the
supplied Allen key (22) in order to now tighten
the nut (24) (Fig. 17/18) Important: Left-hand
thread
5.4 Fitting the cutting line guard hood to the
blade guard hood
The cutting line guard hood must be
fi
tted in addi-
tion if you want to work with the cutting line.
The procedure for
fi
tting the guard hood for the
cutting line is shown in Figures 19-20. A blade
(Fig. 19/ Item F) on the underside of the guard
hood automatically cuts the cutting line to the
optimum length. It is covered by a guard (Fig.
19/Item G). Remove the guard before you start
working and replace it when you have
fi
nished
working.
5.5 Fitting the handle
Fit the handle as shown in Fig. 8-9.
5.6 Fitting / Replacing the line spool
The procedure for
fi
tting the line spool is shown in
Figure 21. To dismantle, proceed in reverse order.
Look for the hole in the carrier plate, line up with
the notch underneath and lock with the supplied
Allen key (22) in order to now screw the line spool
onto the thread. Notice! Left-hand thread.
6. Before starting
Each time before use, check the following:
•
That there are no leaks in the fuel system.
•
That the equipment is in perfect condition and
that the safety devices and cutting devices
are complete.
•
That all screws are securely fastened.
•
That all moving parts move smoothly.
6.1 Fuel and oil
Recommended fuels
Use only a mixture of unleaded petrol and special
2-stroke engine oil. Mix the fuel mixture as indica-
ted in the fuel mixing table.
Notice! Do not use a fuel mixture which has been
stored for longer than 90 days. Notice! Never use
2-stroke oil with a recommended mixing ratio of
100:1. The manufacturer’s warranty will be voided
in case of engine damage due to inadequate lu-
brication. Notice! Only use containers designed
and approved for the purpose to transport and
store fuel.
Pour the correct quantities of petrol and 2-stroke
oil into the mixing bottle (see scale printed on the
bottle). Then shake the bottle well.
