position then the carburetor idle setting must be

"MAINTENANCE" section.
Stop switch
Make sure the engine stops when you push and
release the stop switch.
Cutting attachment guard
This guard is intended to prevent loose objects
from being thrown towards the operator. The
guard also protects the operator from accidental
contact with the cutting attachment.
Check that the guard is undamaged and not
cracked. Replace the guard if it has been exposed
to impact or is cracked.
Always use the recommended guard for the
cutting attachment you are using. See the
"TECHNICAL DATA" section.
WARNING: Never use a cutting
attachment without an approved guard.
See the "TECHNICAL DATA" section. If an
incorrect or faulty guard is fitted this can
cause serious personal injury.
Use of incorrectly wound trimmer line or an
incorrect cutting attachment increases the level of
vibration.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Overexposure to vibration
can lead to circulatory damage or nerve
damage in people who have impaired
circulation. Contact your doctor if you
experience symptoms of overexposure to
vibration. Such symptoms include
numbness, loss of feeling, tingling,
pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes
in skin color or condition. These
symptoms normally appear in the fingers,
hands or wrists. The risk increases at low
temperatures.
Harness quick release
There is an easily accessible, harness quick
release fitted at the front in case of an emergency
that requires you to free yourself from the machine
and harness.
See instructions under the heading "Adjusting the
harness".
Check that the harness straps are correctly
positioned. Once the harness and machine have
been adjusted, check that the harness quick
release works correctly.
Muffler
The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level
and to direct the exhaust gases away from the
operator.
CAUTION! Muffler is fitted with a catalytic
converter designed to reduce harmful exhaust
gases.
In countries that have a warm and dry climate
there is a significant risk of fire. We therefore fit
certain mufflers with a spark arrestor mesh. Check
whether the muffler on your machine is fitted with
this kind of mesh.
