 Wear heavy duty gloves when working with the trimmer blade.
 When replacing the trimmer blade during a trimming task, ensure that the engine is switched off and that the blades
have stopped.
 When turning the product over to replace the trimmer blade, ensure that the fuel tank cap is securely in place.
 Do not attempt to fit the trimmer blade with one hand or without using the socket spanner. Fit the trimmer blade ac-
curately using the supplied socket spanner and tighten firmly in position.
 Do not use any tools other than the provided socket spanner to tighten the blade; a pneumatic or electric tool may
tighten the blade more than necessary and cause the nut or the output shaft to break.
 If worn nut and cup for blade are used, there is a danger of blade getting loose. Replace them with new one.
Failure to do so could lead to an injury or serious accident, or cause a fire.
Inspect the drive shaft (A) every 100 hours of use and replenish
grease if it is insufficient.
 Use good quality lithium multi grease.
1. Remove plug (B) from angle transmission (A).
