Preparation for the use of the power
tool
Always check your power tool for proper
condition and operation before starting,
particularly the throttle trigger, throttle
trigger interlock (if applicable), stop
switch, working tool, deflector and
harness.
The throttle trigger must move freely and
always spring back to the idle position.
The working tool must be properly
tightened and in safe operating
condition. Inspect for loose parts (nuts,
screws, etc.) and for cracked, bent,
warped or damaged working tools.
