SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
5. Muffler
•
Never
use a machine
that
has a defective
muffler.
• Check regularly that the
muffler is secure.
•
If your muffler is fitted
with a spark arrest screen
then it should be cleaned
regularly. A blocked
screen leads to the engine
overheating
with serious
damage as a re.sult. Never
use a muffler with a
defective spark arrest
screen.
6. Blades
To
ensure good cutting
results it is important
that
the contact pressure
between the blades is
correct.
The contact pressure
between tile blades is
adjusted by tightening
the
screws on the underside
of
the bar as far as they will
go, then backing them off
1/4 turn. Lock the screws
using the locking nuts on
the top face of the bar. The
washers should still slide
freely under the screw heads
after the screws have been
tightened.
When the blades are
correctly adjusted the play
between the blades should
be 0.2 0.4 mm, measured
at the screws.
The edges of the blade are
too hard to be filed. Dull
blades should be sharpened
using a grinder.
• Replace the blades if they are bent or damaged.
7. Assembly
of the
catcher (accessory)
Loosen tile nuts oi1 top of the
cutter bar. Align the bolts in
the holes on the catcher and
fit the nuts. Adjust the blades'
contact pressure according
to
point 6.
8. Gearbox
• The gearbox gets hot
when the hedge trimmer
is in use. To avoid
burning yourself do not
touch the gearbox.
