STARTING AND STOPPING
Check before starting
Check the blade to ensure that no cracks have formed at
the bottom of the teeth or by the centre hole. The most
common reason why cracks are formed is that sharp
corners have been formed at the bottom of the teeth while
sharpening or that the blade has been used with dull
teeth. Discard a blade if cracks are found.
Check that the support flange is not cracked due to fatigue
or due to being tightened too much. Discard the support
flange if it is cracked.
Ensure the locking nut has not lost its captive force. The
nut lock should have a locking force of at least 1.5 Nm.
The tightening torque of the locking nut should be 35-50
Nm.
Check that the blade guard is not damaged or cracked.
Replace the blade guard if it is exposed to impact or is
cracked.
Check that the trimmer head and trimmer guard are not
damaged or cracked. Replace the trimmer head or trimmer
guard if they have been exposed to impact or are cracked.
Never use the machine without a guard nor with a
defective guard.
All covers must be correctly fitted and undamaged before
you start the machine.
Starting and stopping
Cold engine
Ignition: Set the stop switch to the start position.
Choke: Set the choke control (A) in the choke position.
Primer bulb: Press the air purge diaphragm (B) repeatedly
until fuel begins to fill the diaphragm. The diaphragm need not
be completely filled.
Warm engine
Use the same starting procedure as for a cold engine but
without setting the choke control in the choke position.
Start throttle: (BC 2145)
Set the throttle to the start position by first pressing the throttle
lockout and the throttle trigger, then pressing the start throttle
button (A). Then release the throttle lockout and the throttle
trigger, followed by the start throttle button. The throttle
function is now activated. To return the engine to idle, press
the throttle lockout and throttle trigger again.
Start throttle: (FC 2145, FC 2145 S, FC 2145 W, BC 2145)
Set the throttle to the start position by moving the choke
control to the choke position and then returning it to its original
position.
!
WARNING! The complete clutch cover and
shaft must be fitted before the machine is
started, otherwise the clutch can come loose

Always move the machine away from the
refuelling area before starting. Place the
machine on a flat surface. Ensure the cutting
attachment cannot come into contact with
any object.
Make sure no unauthorised persons are in
the working area, otherwise there is a risk of
serious personal injury. The safety distance
is 15 metres.
