MAINTENANCE OF THE GEARS
FILL PLUG
1 Check lubrication of the gears every 25 operating
hours.
2 To check gear lubrication, screw out the fill plug.
If no more grease is to be seen in the lubrication
opening, continue to fill, using a grease press or
some standard grease tube until it emerges from
the opening. Finally twist the fill plug carefully back
again. For lubrication use a standard gear grease.

INSTALLING BLADE GUARD
BLADE
BLABE GUARD
Bend the blade guard apart and put it on the blade,
then close it by putting the pin into the provided notch.
• The engine should be turned off when the unit is
moved from on working area to another.
• After the engine has stopped, the muffler is still hot.
Never touch hot parts such as the muffler.
• Make sure that no fuel leaks from the tank.
EXTENDED STORAGE
• Inspect, clean and repair unit if necessary.
• Remove all fuel from the tank.

fuel in the fuel line and carburettor.
• Remove spark plug and pour one tea spoon of clean
motor oil into spark plug hole of cylinder; put spark
plug back in place.

FAILURES
such as difficulties starting the engine, ir-
regularities during operation and abnormalities in per-
formance can normally be prevented if the Operating
Instructions and maintenance procedures are carefully
adhered to. If the engine does not work properly, check
the following:
• Is the fuel system in good condition and is fuel
flowing to the engine?
• Is the ignition system in good condition and does
the spark plug work correctly?
• Is the compression of the engine adequate?
FAILURE TO START
· Dispose of fuel in the tank.
· Fill the tank with fresh and clean fuel.
· Check fuel filter for dirt; make sure it is clean. (Re-
place filter if necessary.)
· Make sure that all air cleaner elements are clean.
· Install a new, properly gapped spark plug.
· Should you experience serious trouble with the unit,
do not try to repair it yourself, but have your distribu-
tor or dealer do it for you.
Waste disposal and environmental protec-
tion
Never pour remainders of chain lubricant or 2-stroke
fuel mixture in the drain or sewerage system or soil, but
dispose of it in a proper, environmentally friendly way,
e.g., at a special collecting point or dump.
If your device should become useless somewhere in
the future or you do not need it any longer, do not dis-
pose of the device together with your domestic refuse,
but dispose of it in an environmentally friendly manner.
Thoroughly empty the oil/lubricant and fuel tanks and
dispose of the remainders at a special collecting point
or dump. Please also dispose of the device itself at
an according collecting/recycling point. By doing so,
plastic and metal parts can be separated and recycled.
Information concerning the disposal of materials and
devices are available from your local administration.
