WARNING! Never use a machine that has
!
faulty safety equipment! If your machine
fails any of these checks contact your
service agent to get it repaired.
The engine should be switched off, and the
stop switch in STOP position.
This section describes the machine´s safety equipment, its
purpose, and how checks and maintenance should be carried
out to ensure that it operates correctly.
Throttle lockout
The throttle trigger lock is designed to prevent accidental
operation of the throttle. When the lock (A) is pressed in this
releases the throttle (B).
The trigger lock remains pressed in as long as the throttle is
pressed. When the grip on the handle is released the throttle
trigger and the throttle trigger lock both return to their original
positions. This is controlled by two independent return spring
systems. This means that the throttle trigger is automatically
locked in the idle position.
Checking the throttle lockout
Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle setting
when the throttle lockout is released.
Press the throttle lockout and make sure it returns to its
original position when you release it.
Check that the throttle control and throttle lockout move
freely and that the return springs work properly.

MACHINE´S SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Start the power cutter and apply full throttle. Release the
throttle control and check that the cutting blade stops and
remains stationary. If the cutting blade rotates when the
throttle is in the idle position you should check the
carburettor's idle adjustment.

Checking the stop switch
Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when
you move the stop switch to the stop setting.
Blade guards
WARNING! Always check that the blade
!
guards are correctly fitted before starting the
machine.
These guards are fitted above and below the blades and are
designed to prevent parts of the blades or cut material from
being thrown towards the user.
Check the blade guards
Check that the blade guard is not damaged or broken. A
broken or damaged blade guard must never be used.
Also check that the blades are fitted correctly and are not
damaged in anyway. Damaged blades can cause
personal injuries. See instructions in the section
