STARTING AND STOPPING Check before starting • Inspect the working area. Remove any objects that could be thrown out. • Check the cutting attachment. Never use blades that are dull, cracked or damaged. • Check that the machine is in perfect working order. Check that all nuts and screws are tight. • Make sure the gear housing is lubricated correctly. See instructions under the heading Gear housing. • Check that the cutting attachment always stops when the engine is idling. • Only use the machine for the purpose it was intended for. • Make sure that the handle and safety features are in good working order. Never use a machine that lacks a part or has been modified outside its specifications. • All covers must be correctly fitted and undamaged before you start the machine. Starting and stopping Primer bulb: Press the air purge diaphragm repeatedly until fuel begins to fill the diaphragm (about 6 times). The diaphragm need not be completely filled. Starting Hold the body of the machine on the ground using your left hand (CAUTION! Not with your foot!). Grip the starter handle, slowly pull out the cord with your right hand until you feel some resistance (the starter pawls grip), now quickly and powerfully pull the cord. Never wrap the starter cord around your hand WARNING! The complete gear housing ! must be fitted before the machine is started, otherwise the clutch may loosen and cause personal injury. Always move the machine about 3 metres from the refuelling position before starting. Place the machine on a firm surface. Remember that the blades may start to move when the engine is started. Make sure the blades cannot come into contact with any object. Make sure that no unauthorised persons are in the working area, otherwise there is a risk of serious personal injury. The safety distance is 15 metres. Cold engine Choke: Push the choke control back to its original position as soon as the engine fires, and continue trying to start until the engine starts. CAUTION! When the choke control is pushed back to its original position, the engine runs at a heightened speed, the so called start throttle position, and the blades then move. Start throttle position is released by throttling using the throttle lever. CAUTION! Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended. This can damage the machine. Set the choke control in the choke position. 12 - English 1153993-49 Rev 2. 2012-03-21
