are securely fastened and also check all the safety
devices.
6.1.4 Fitting the additional handle (Fig. 3a-3c)
Slacken the nut on the fastening screw on the handle
(Fig. 3a/Item 17). Remove the nut and the fastening
screw (Fig. 3a/Item 17) from the handle and insert
them in the long handle (2). Then screw the handle to
the long handle.
6.2 Setting the cutting height
Slip the shoulder strap (Fig. 8a) over the left
n
shoulder.
Set the length of the shoulder strap in such a way
n
that the cutting head runs parallel to the ground.
In order to establish the optimum length of the
shoulder strap, you should then make a few
swinging movements without starting the engine
(Fig. 9a).
Important: Always use the strap when working with
the equipment. Attach the strap as soon as you have
started the engine and it is running in idle mode.
Switch off the engine before you take off the carrying
strap.
Check the equipment for the following each time
before use:
That there are no leaks in the fuel system.
n
That the equipment is in perfect condition and
n
that the safety devices and cutting devices are
complete.

6.3 Fuel and oil

Recommended fuels
Use only a mixture of unleaded petrol and special 2-
stroke engine oil. Mix the fuel mixture as indicated on
the fuel mixing table.
Important: Do not use a fuel mixture which has been
stored for longer than 90 days.
Important: Never use 2-stroke oil with a
recommended mixing ratio of 100:1. The
manufacturer's warranty will be voided in case of
engine damage due to inadequate lubrication.
Important: Only use containers designed and
approved for the purpose to transport and store fuel.
Pour the correct quantities of petrol and 2-stroke oil
into the mixing bottle (see scale printed on the bottle).
Then shake the bottle well.

7. Operation
Please note that the statutory regulations governing
noise abatement may differ from town to town.
7.1 Starting the engine when cold
Fill the tank with the required amount of oil/petrol mix.
See "Fuel and oil".
1. Set the equipment down on a hard, level surface.
2. Press the fuel pump (primer) (Fig. 1/Item 7) 10
times.
3. Move the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1/Item 9) to "I"
4. Set the choke lever (Fig. 1/Item 5) to " ".
5. Hold the equipment firmly and pull out the starter
cable (Fig. 1/Item 4) until you feel it start to resist.
Then tug sharply on the starter cable 4 times. The
equipment should start.
Important: Never allow the starter cable to snap
back. This may damage the equipment.
Important: Since the choke lever is secured, the
cutting tool starts to operate when the engine is
started.
Then release the choke lever by actuating it once.
(The engine returns to its idle state).
6. If the engine does not start up, repeat steps 4-5
above.
Please note: If the engine does not start up even after
several attempts, read the section "Engine
Troubleshooting". Please note: Always pull the starter
cord out in a straight line. If it is pulled out at an angle,
then friction will occur on the eyelet. As a result of this
friction, the cable will become frayed and will wear
away faster. Always hold the starter handle when the
cable retracts. Never allow the cable to snap back
when it has been pulled out.
7.2 Starting the engine when warm
(The equipment has been idle for less than 15-20
min.)
1. Set the equipment down on a hard, level surface.
2. Switch the ON/OFF switch to "I".
3. Hold the equipment firmly and pull out the starter
cable until you feel it start to resist. Then tug
sharply on the starter cable. The equipment
should start after 1-2 tugs. If the equipment does
not start after 6 pulls, repeat steps 1 to 6 of the
procedure for starting the engine from cold.
