vibration (AV) system; never alter or modify
it.
• Wear gloves and keep your hands warm.
• Maintain a firm grip at all times, but do
not squeeze the handles with constant,
excessive pressures, take frequent breaks.
All the above mentioned precautions do
not guarantee that you will not sustain
whitefinger
syndrome. Therefore, continual and regular
users should monitor closely the condition
of their hands and fingers. If any of the
above symptoms appear, seek medical
advice immediately.
Maintenance Precaution
WARNING: Never operate a power
unit that is damaged, improperly
adjusted, or is not
and securely assembled.
• Be sure that the cutting attachment stops
moving when the throttle control trigger
is released. If the cutting attachment
moves at idle speed, the carburetor may
need adjusting, see Operation-Carburetor
Adjusting Section. If the cutting attachment
still moves at idle speed after adjustment
has been made, contact a Servicing Dealer
for adjustment and discontinue use until
the repair is made.
