Malfunctions and troubleshooting
In the event of a malfunction…
Minor faults are often sufficient to cause a malfunc-
tion. In most cases, you will be able to correct these
faults easily yourself. Please start by referring to the
following table before contacting our technical sup-
port. This will help you save much effort and possibly
expense.
Note:
The lubricating nipple (14) is also
used to grease the gearbox.
Here, you should regrease once a season
depending on the application since the
grease can get into the centrifugal clutch
due to movement and heat in case the dos-
age is too high.
NOTICE! Risk of damage to the appli-
ance!
Never operate the appliance without
the air filter, otherwise damage to the motor
may occur.
