Muffler
WARNING
The inside of the muffler contain chemicals that may be carcinogenic. Avoid contact with
these elements in the event of a damaged muffler.
• The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum and to direct exhaust fumes away
from the user.
• Never use a brush cutter that has a faulty muffler.
• Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine. (Figure 10)
ADJUSTING THE HARNESS AND BRUSH CUTTER
WARNING
• When using a brush cutter it must always be hooked securely to the harness. Otherwise you may
lose control of the brush cutter, and this can result in injury to yourself or others.
• Never use a harness with a defective quick release.
Quick release
• At the front is an easily accessible, quick release. Use this in emergency situations which require
that you to free yourself quickly from the machine and harness.
Spreading the load on your shoulders
• A well-adjusted harness and machine makes working with the brush cutter much easier.
Adjust the harness for the best working position.
• Tension the side straps so that the weight is evenly distributed across both shoulders (Figure 11).
Correct height
• Adjust the shoulder strap so that the cutting attachment is parallel to the ground (Figure 12).
Correct balance
• Let the cutting attachment rest lightly on the ground. Adjust the position of the suspension ring
to balance the brush cutter correctly (Figure 13).
