Control before starting
WARNING!
When the engine starts with the choke lever in
the choke or starter throttle position the
cutting tool (blade or trimmer) starts to rotate
immediately.
START AND STOP
For reasons of safety follow
these recommendations!
• Check that the support flange
is not cracked due to fatigue
or due to being tightened too
much. Replace the support
flange if it is cracked.
• Ensure that the nut has not
lost its tightening capacity
The nut lock shall have a
locking torque of at least
1.5Nm. The nut‘s tightening
torque shall be 35-50 Nm.
• Check that the blade and the
blade guard are not damaged
or cracked. Replace the
blade or blade guard if it has
been exposed to impact or if
it is cracked.
Start and stop
Cold engine
IGNITION:
Set the stop switch to the start
position.
CHOKE:

choke position.
Warm engine
Use the same starting proce-
dure as for the cold engine, but
do not set the choke control in

setting the choke control in the
choke position and then
returning it to its original
position.

switching off the ignition.

fitted before the machine is started, otherwise
the clutch can become loose and cause
personal injury.
Always move the machine from the filling
position before starting. Place the machine
on a flat surface. Make sure the blade cannot
come into contact with any object. Make sure
that no unauthorised persons are in the
working area, otherwise there is a risk of
serious personal injury. The safety distance
is 15 metres.
