Do not use the Hedge Trimmer continuously for a long time. It is normal to take a
-
break of 10 to 20 minutes after every 50 minutes operation.
Should the cutting blades hit stones or other hard objects, immediately switch off the
-
engine and inspect the cutting blades for damage. Replace damaged blades before
re-commencing work.
The engine must be switched off immediately in case of any engine problems.
-
Operate the Hedge Trimmer with as little noise and contamination as possible in
-
particular check the correct setting of the carburetor and the fuel/oil ratio.
Do not attempt to remove jammed cut material when blades are running. Put unit
-
down, turn it off, and remove necessary cuttings.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Turn off engine and remove the spark plug connector when replacing or sharpening
-
cutting tools，also when cleaning the cutter or cutting device or carrying out any
maintenance.
Never straighten or weld a damaged cutting blade.
-
Inspect the cutting blades with the engine switched off at
-
short,regular interval for damage.(Detection of hairline
cracks by means of trapping-noise test) Beware the teeth
are sharp.
Clean the Hedge Trimmer at regular intervals and check that
-
all screw and nuts are well tightened.
Never service or store the Hedge Trimmer
-
in vicinity of naked flames to avoid fires.
Always wear leather gloves when handling
-
or sharpening in blades as they are sharp.
Blade sharpening
If the edges are rounded and do not cut well
any more,grind off only the shaded portion. Do
not goring the contact surfaces(sliding
surfaces)of the top and bottom edges.
Before grinding,be sure to secure the
-
blade firmly and switch off the engine and
remove the speak plug cap.
Wear gloves, protective glasses,etc.
-
An edge ground too much at a time or
-
ground many times will lose its hardened
layer. It becomes rounded and dull very
quickly in use.
Blade adjustment
The blades will wear wth long use. When you find that trimming is not a good as when the
blades were new, adjust them as follows
1. Turn nut ① loose.
2. Screw②in with the driver lightly till it stops turning, and then screw it back one quarter
to a half turn.
3. Turn nut ① tight, holding screw ② at the same time with a driver.
4. Lubricate the blades after adjustments above with light oil.
5. Start the engine and operate the engine throttle on and off for a minute.
6. Stop the engine and touch the blades with your hand. If they are warm enough for you
to keep your hand on, then you have made the proper adjustment. If they are too hot
for you to keep touching, give screw ② a little more turn back and repeat 5 to see if
they are properly adjusted.
NOTE: Never fall to stop the engine before making the adjustment.
