GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
For mufflers, it is very important that you follow the
instructions on checking, maintaining, and
servicing your machine. Never use a machine that
has a faulty muffler.
Regularly check that the muffler is securely
attached to the machine.
WARNING: Mufflers fitted with catalytic
converters get very hot during use and
remain so for some time after stopping.
This also applies at idle speed. Contact
can result in burns to the skin. Remember
the risk of fire.
WARNING: The inside of the muffler
contain chemicals that may be
carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these
elements in the event of a damaged
muffler.
WARNING: Engine exhaust fumes
contain carbon monoxide, which can
cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Do
not start or run the machine indoors, or
anywhere that is poorly ventilated.
WARNING: The exhaust fumes from the
engine are hot and may contain sparks
which can start a fire. Never start the
machine indoors or near combustible
material.
Locking nut
A locking nut is used to secure some types of
cutting attachment.
When fitting, tighten the nut in the opposite
direction to the direction of rotation of the cutting
attachment. To remove it, undo the nut in the
same direction as the cutting attachment rotates.
(The nut has a left-hand thread.) Tighten the nut
using the socket wrench.
The nylon lining inside the locking nut must not be
so worn that you can turn it by hand. The lining
should offer a resistance of at least 1.5 Nm (1,1 ft
lb). The nut should be replaced after it has been
put on approximately 10 times.
Cutting equipment
This section describes how to choose and
maintain your cutting equipment in order to:
•
Reduce the risk of blade thrust.
•
Obtain maximum cutting performance.
•
Extend the life of cutting equipment.
IMPORTANT:
•
Only use cutting attachments with the guards
we recommend. See the “TECHNICAL DATA”
section.
•
Refer to the instructions for the cutting
attachment to check the correct way to load
the trimmer line and the correct line diameter.
•
Keep the teeth of the blade correctly
sharpened. Follow our recommendations. Also
refer to the instructions on the blade
packaging.
•
Maintain the correct blade setting. Follow our
instructions and use the recommended file
gauge.
WARNING: Stop the engine before doing
any work on the cutting attachment.
Ensure the cutting attachment has
stopped rotating completely. Disconnect
the lead from the spark plug.
WARNING: Using an incorrect cutting
attachment or an incorrectly sharpened
blade increases the risk of kickback.
