To do a check of the vibration damping system
The vibration damping system decreases vibration in the
handles to a minimum which makes the operation
easier.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Do a visual check for deformation and damage, for
example cracks.
3. Make sure that the elements of the vibration
damping system are attached correctly.
To do a check of the quick-release mechanism
WARNING: Do not use a harness with a
defective quick-release mechanism.
The quick-release mechanism lets the operator remove
the product quickly from the harness if there is an
emergency.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Do a visual check for damage, for example cracks.
3. Release and attach the quick-release mechanism to
make sure that it operates correctly.
To do a check of the muffler
WARNING: Never use a product with a
faulty muffler.

WARNING: Bear in mind that the exhaust
fumes from the engine are hot and may
contain sparks which can start a fire. Never
start the product indoors or near
combustible material!
The muffler keeps noise levels to a minimum and sends
exhaust fumes away from the operator. For mufflers it is
very important that you follow the instructions on how to
check, maintain and service your product.
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to
the product.
To attach and remove the locknut
WARNING: Stop the engine, use protective
gloves and be careful around the sharp
edges of the cutting attachment.
A locknut is used to attach some types of cutting
attachments. The locknut has a left thread.
• To attach, tighten the locknut in the opposite
direction to the direction of turning of the cutting
attachment.
• To remove the locknut, loosen the locknut in the
same direction as the cutting attachment rotates.
