Engine; Main Parts And Controls - Brother BHL 3040 Operating Instructions Manual

Warning!
The powertool has a large range. In order to reduce the
risk of personal or even fata linjury to bystanders from
falling objects or inadvertent contact with the moving cut-
ter blades of your powertool always keep by standers at
least 50 feet (15 m) away when the powertool is running.
Stop the engine and cutting too limmediately if you are
approached.
Before you start work, examine the work area for stones,
fence wire, metal or other solid objects which could dam-
age the cutter blades. Take particular care when cutting
next to wire fences. Do not touch the wire with the cutting
blades. When working close to the ground, make sure
that no sand, grit or stones get between the cutter blad-
ers.
Striking solid foreign objects such as stones, fence wire
or metal could damage the cutting attachment and may
cause blades to crack, chiporbreak. We do not recom-
mend the use of your powertool when cutting in areas
where the blades could contact such objects. Observe
the cutting blades at all times–do not cut any areas that
you cannot see. When cutting the top of a taller hedge,
check the other side of the hedge frequently for by stand-
ers, animals and obstructions.
Danger!
Your power tool is not insulated against elec-
tric shock. To reduce the risk of electrocution,
never operate this power tool in the vicinity of
any wires or cables (power,etc.) which may be
carrying electric current.
If the cutting tool becomes clogged or stuck, always turn
off the engine and make sure the cutting tool has stopped
before cleaning. Grass, weeds, etc. should be cleaned off
the cutting tool at regular intervals.
Check the cutting blades at regular short intervals during
operation, or immediately if there is a noticeable change
in cutting behavior:
− Shut off the engine.
− Wait until the cutting blades have come to a complete
standstill.
− Check condition and tightness, look for cracks.
− Check sharpness.
− Replace damaged or dull cutting tools immediately,
even if they have only superficial cracks.
Warning!
The gearbox become shot during operation. To reduce
the risk of burn injury, do not touch the gear housing when
it is hot.
After Finishing Work
Always clean dust and dirt off the machine – do not use
any grease solvents for this puepose. Spray the blades
with resinsolvent. Start and run the engine briefly so that
the solvent is evenly distributed.
