Work position
• Hold the product with 2 hands.
• Hold the product on the right side of your body.
• Keep the cutting attachment below waist level.
• Always keep the product attached to the harness.
• Keep body parts away from the hot surfaces.
• Keep body parts away from the cutting attachment.
Correct balance of the product
For forestry clearing, the product is correctly balanced
when it freely hangs horizontally from the suspension
point. With correct balance, the risk of hitting stones if
you release the handlebar is decreased.
For grass clearing, the product is correctly balanced
when the blade is at cutting height near the ground.
To start a cold engine
1. Pull the choke control (A) up.
2. Push the decompression valve (B).
Note:
The decompression valve moves to the initial
position when the product starts.
