• The complete clutch cover with shaft must be fitted before the machine is started, otherwise the clutch can become loose and cause personal injury. • Never start the machine indoors. Bear in mind the dangers of inhaling the engine‘s exhaust fumes. • Observe your surroundings and make sure that there is no risk of people or animals coming into contact with the cutting equipment. • Place the machine on the ground, ensure the cutting equipment runs free of twigs and stones. Push the machine body towards the ground using your left hand. (NOTE! Not with your foot). Grip the starter handle with your right hand and pull the starter cord. Fuel safety • Never fill the machine while the engine is running. Always stop the engine and let it cool for a few minutes before refuelling. • Provide good ventilation when filling or mixing fuel (petrol and 2-stroke oil). • Move the machine at least 3 m from the filling position before starting. • Never start the machine: a) If you have spilt fuel on it. Wipe up all spillage. b)If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes. Change your clothes. c) If there is a fuel leak. Make regular checks for leakage from the fuel cap and the fuel supply pipes. Min. 3 m (10 ft) Transport and storage • Store and transport the machine and fuel so that any leakage or fumes do not risk coming into contact with sparks or naked flames. For example, electric machines, electric motors, electrical switches/power switches, heaters or the like. • When storing and transporting fuel approved containers intended for this purpose must be used. • When storing the machine for long periods the fuel tank must be emptied. Contact your local petrol station to find out how to dispose of excess fuel. ! WARNING! Exercise great care when handling fuel. Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosions and inhaling fumes. 8 – English SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS General working instructions IMPORTANT INFORMATION • This section takes up the basic safety precautions for working with the trimmer. • If you encounter a situation where you are uncertain how to proceed you should ask an expert. Contact your dealer or your service workshop. • Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond your capability. Basic safety precautions 1.Observe your surroundings: • To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot affect your control of the machine. • To ensure that the above mentioned do not come into contact with the cutting equipment or objects that can be thrown by the cutting equipment. • NOTE! Never use a machine without the possibility of calling for help in the event of an accident. 2.Avoid usage in unfavourable weather conditions. For example, thick fog, heavy rain, strong winds or extreme cold, etc. To work in bad weather conditions is tiring and can create dangerous circumstances, e.g. slippery surfaces. 3.Make sure you can walk and stand safely. Look out for any obstacles with unexpected movement (roots, stones, branches, pits, ditches, etc.). Take great care when working on sloping ground. 4.The engine should be switched off before moving. 5.Never put the machine down with the engine running unless you have good sight of it. Basic working techniques • Always trim at full throttle. • Always drop to idling speed after each working operation. Longer periods running at full throttle without loading the engine (that is without resistance, which the engine feels from the cutting equipment when trimming) can lead to serious engine damage. ! ! WARNING! Sometimes branches, grass or wood can get caught between the guard and cutting equipment. Always stop the engine when cleaning. Grass trimming using the trimmer head • Hold the trimmer head just above the ground at an angle. It is the end of the cord that carries out the work. Let the cord work at its own pace. Do not press the cord into the area to be cut. • The cord can easily remove grass and weeds up against walls, fences, trees and borders, however, it can also damage sensitive bark on trees and bushes and damage fence posts. • Reduce the risk of damaging plants by shortening the cord to 10-12 cm and reducing the engine speed. English – 9 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Clearing • The clearing technique removes all unwanted vegetation. Keep the trimmer head just above the ground and tilt it. Let the end of the cord strike the ground around trees, posts, statues and the like. NOTE! This technique increases the wear on the cord. • The cord wears quicker and must be fed forward more often when working against stones, brick, concrete, metal fences, etc. than when coming into contact with trees and wooden fences. • When trimming and clearing you should use less than full throttle so that the cord lasts longer and to reduce the wear on the trimmer head. Trimming • The trimmer is ideal to cut grass that is difficult to reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the cord parallel to the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the lawn and damage the tool...
