Maintenance; First Aid - Makita EK7651H Original Instruction Manual

Maintenance

- Before performing maintenance work switch off the Power Cutter (27) and
pull out the plug cap.
- Always check the Power Cutter before using it to make sure that it is in good
working order. In particular, make sure that the cutting disc is properly mounted.
Make sure that the cutting wheel is undamaged and suitable for the job it will be
used for.
- Operate the Power Cutter only at a low noise and emission level.
For this ensure the carburetor is adjusted correctly.
- Clean the Power Cutter regularly.
- Check the fuel tank cap regularly for good sealing.
Observe the accident prevention instructions issued by trade associations
and insurance companies. NEVER make any modifications to the Power
Cutter! You will only be putting your own safety at risk!
Perform only the maintenance and repair works described in the instruction
manual. All other work must be carried out by MAKITA Service (28).
Use only original MAKITA spares and accessories.
The use of non-MAKITA spares, accessories, or cutting discs increases the risk of
accident. We cannot accept any responsibility for accidents or damage occurring
in association with the use of cutting discs or accessories other than original
MAKITA.
