ground at an angle. Do not push the trimmer line into

the grass. (Fig. 23)

2. Decrease the engine speed to decrease the risk of

damage to plants.

3. Use 80 % throttle when you cut grass near objects.

(Fig. 24)

General safety instructions for the

brushcutter

• A grass blade is used for all types of tall or coarse

grass.

• Grass blades and grass cutters must not be used on

woody stems.

with a blade.

• Wear protective gloves when you touch the blade or

do maintenance.

• Use the product with an approved blade. Do not use

a blade without correct installation of all necessary

parts. Make sure that the installation is done

correctly and that the correct parts are used.

Incorrect installation may cause the blade to fly off

and cause serious injury the operator or bystanders.

• Operate the product with the cutting attachment

below your waist.

12

860 - 001 - 28.10.2018

• Do not touch the bevel gear after the engine stops.

• The bevel gear is hot after the engine stops. Hot

areas can cause injury.

• Stop the engine before you do work on the cutting

attachment. Make sure the cutting attachment fully

stops. Disconnect the lead from the spark plug.

• Make sure that the blade has fully stopped to turn

before maintenance.

• Keep the teeth of the blade correctly sharpened.

• An incorrectly sharpened or damaged blade

increases the risk of accidents. Keep the teeth of the

blade correctly sharpened. Follow the instructions

and use the recommended file gauge.

• Make sure that the blade guard is not damaged or

twisted.

• Attach the transport guard to the blade before

transportation or storage of the product.

Blade thrust

• A blade thrust is a sudden movement of the product

to the side, forward or rearward. A blade thrust

occurs when the grass blade or saw blade hits an

object that cannot be cut. In areas where it is not

easy to see the material being cut the risk of blade

thrust increases.

• When a blade thrust occurs, there is a risk that the

product or the operator moves out of position. A

blade that moves can hit bystanders and there is a

risk of injuries.

• If a blade is bent, has cracks, is broken or damaged,

discard the blade.

stroke. Use the left side of the blade (between 8 and

12 o'clock) to cut. (Fig. 27)

4. Angle the blade to the left when you clear grass.

Note:

The grass collects easily in a line.

To do the maintenance on the pole

saw attachment

WARNING: Remove the spark plug before

you do the maintenance on the attachment.

To install or replace the chain

WARNING:

When the chain becomes worn

or damaged, replace it with the low kickback

chain. See

ATTACHMENTS on page 23

.

Note: Always use gloves when you touch the chain.

1. Disconnect the spark plug cap.

2. Use the wrench to loosen the sprocket cover nut by

turning counterclockwise. (Fig. 66)

3. Remove the sprocket cover nut, washer (B) and

sprocket cover (C). (Fig. 67)

4. Remove the guide bar and saw chain if they are

installed.

5. If you are replacing a chain, remove the old chain

from the guide bar and discard it.

6. Remove all sawdust, dirt and other unwanted

material from the surfaces with a soft brush or a dry

cloth.

7. Do the maintenance on the guide bar. See

To do the

maintenance on the guide bar on page 21

.

8. Turn the adjustment screw counterclockwise until the

adjustment pin is at the position shown. (Fig. 68)
