Before Starting WARNING Always check your power tool for proper condition and operation before starting, particularly the throttle trigger, throttle trigger lockout, momentary stop switch, cutting attachment, deflector and harness. The throttle trigger must move freely and always spring back to the idle position. Never attempt to modify the controls or safety devices. WARNING Check fuel system for leaks, especially the visible parts, e.g., filler cap, hose connections, manual fuel pump (only for power tools equipped with a manual fuel pump). Do not start the engine if there are leaks or damage - risk of fire! Have the machine repaired by a servicing dealer before using it. WARNING Never operate your power tool if it is damaged, improperly adjusted or maintained, or not completely or securely assembled. WARNING Do not attach any cutting attachment to a unit without proper installation of all required parts. Failure to use the proper parts may cause the blade or head to fly off and seriously injure the operator or bystanders. WARNING The cutting attachment must be properly tightened and in safe operating condition. Inspect for loose parts (nuts, screws, etc.) and for cracked or damaged heads or cracked, bent, warped or damaged blades. Replace damaged heads or blades before using the power tool. Always keep blades sharp. Keep the handles clean and dry at all times; it is particularly important to keep them free of moisture, pitch, oil, fuel mix, grease or resin in order for you to maintain a firm grip and properly control your power tool. WARNING Check that the spark plug boot is securely mounted on the spark plug - a loose boot may cause arcing that could ignite combustible fumes and cause a fire. English WARNING To reduce the risk of personal injury to the operator from blade or line contact and thrown objects, make sure your unit is equipped with the proper deflector, limit stop and harness for the type of cutting attachment being used (see chart in the chapter on "Approved Combinations of Cutting Attachment, Deflector, Limit Stop and Harness"). As can be seen in that chart, some cutting attachments may require you to change your deflector, limit stop and / or harness. Keep the deflector (and the attached skirt where appropriate) adjusted properly at all times (see chapters on "Mounting the Deflector" and "Mounting the Cutting Attachment" of your instruction manual).

Before Starting
WARNING
Always check your power tool for proper
condition and operation before starting,
particularly the throttle trigger, throttle
trigger lockout, momentary stop switch,
cutting attachment, deflector and
harness. The throttle trigger must move
freely and always spring back to the idle
position. Never attempt to modify the
controls or safety devices.
WARNING
Check fuel system for leaks, especially
the visible parts, e.g., filler cap, hose
connections, manual fuel pump (only for
power tools equipped with a manual fuel
pump). Do not start the engine if there
are leaks or damage – risk of fire! Have
the machine repaired by a servicing
dealer before using it.
WARNING
Never operate your power tool if it is
damaged, improperly adjusted or
maintained, or not completely or
securely assembled.
WARNING
Do not attach any cutting attachment to
a unit without proper installation of all
required parts. Failure to use the proper
parts may cause the blade or head to fly
off and seriously injure the operator or
bystanders.
WARNING
The cutting attachment must be properly
tightened and in safe operating
condition. Inspect for loose parts (nuts,
screws, etc.) and for cracked or
damaged heads or cracked, bent,
warped or damaged blades. Replace
damaged heads or blades before using
the power tool. Always keep blades
sharp.
Keep the handles clean and dry at all
times; it is particularly important to keep
them free of moisture, pitch, oil, fuel mix,
grease or resin in order for you to
maintain a firm grip and properly control
your power tool.
WARNING
Check that the spark plug boot is
securely mounted on the spark plug – a
loose boot may cause arcing that could
ignite combustible fumes and cause a
fire.
WARNING
As can be seen in that chart, some
cutting attachments may require you to
change your deflector, limit stop and / or
harness.
Keep the deflector (and the attached
skirt where appropriate) adjusted
properly at all times (see chapters on
"Mounting the Deflector" and "Mounting
the Cutting Attachment" of your
instruction manual).
To reduce the risk
of personal injury
to the operator
from blade or line
contact and
thrown objects,
make sure your
unit is equipped
with the proper
deflector, limit stop
and harness for
the type of cutting
attachment being
used (see chart in
the chapter on
"Approved Combi
-
nations of Cutting
Attachment,
Deflector, Limit
Stop and
Harness").
