Servicing
• It is recommended once you first use your petrol edger
to get it serviced after 15 hours of use.
• From thereafter, service the petrol edger every 2 years.
Storage and maintenance after use
• When you finish working, clean the petrol edger
completely, making sure there is no grass or dirt
wrapped in the cutting tools, and put it back into its
package in order to avoid its hurting you or other people
during transport.
• Be aware to not hit or cut the fuel tank if you put it
onto the ground.
• Store the petrol edger away from direct sunlight.
• Do not store in a nylon bag as this can encourage the
formation of mould.
• At the end of the season, give the petrol edger an
overall cleaning and a thorough check.
Whenever the machine is not used for a long period of
time, proceed as follows:
• Empty the fuel tank completely.
• Protect all metal engine parts from corrosion by coating
them with oil.
• Remove the spark plug, put a few drops of oil into the
cylinder and then pull the recoil starter 2 to 3 times in
order to distribute the oil evenly. Replace the spark plug.
Problems
Power loss or sudden stopping of the engine
• Check whether the fuel tank is empty.
• The mixture does not reach the carburettor. Clean the
fuel filter in the fuel tank.
• There is water in the mixture. Drain and rinse all the
fuel system.
• The air filter is dirty. Clean the air filter.
• There are carbon deposits in the cylinder exhaust pipe or
the muffler. Clean those or change the muffler.
Bad quality cut

power.
