GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Important Personal protective equipment IMPORTANT! IMPORTANT! The machine is only designed for trimming grass, grass clearing and/or forestry clearing. A clearing saw, brushcutter or trimmer can be dangerous if used incorrectly or carelessly, and can cause serious or fatal injury to the operator or others. It is extremely important that you read and understand the contents of this operator’s manual.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS BOOTS Wear boots with steel toe-caps and non-slip sole. control (B). When you release the handle the throttle control and the throttle lockout both move back to their original positions. This movement is controlled by two independent return springs. This arrangement means that the throttle control is automatically locked at the idle setting. A B CLOTHING Wear clothes made of a strong fabric and avoid loose clothing that can catch on twigs and branches.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS be checked. See instructions under the heading Maintenance. Vibration damping system Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping system that is designed to reduce vibration and make operation easier. Stop switch Use the stop switch to switch off the engine. Use of incorrectly wound cord or an incorrect cutting attachment increases the level of vibration. See instructions under the heading Cutting equipment.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS saw. Certain harnesses also have a quick release fitted to the support hook. Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine. If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark arrestor screen this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked screen will cause the engine to overheat and may lead to serious damage. Check that the harness straps are correctly positioned.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS should operate the socket spanner when loosening or tightening the nut. Cutting equipment Saw blades are intended for cutting fibrous types of wood. Grass blades and grass cutters are intended for cutting coarse grass. The nylon lining inside the locking nut must not be so worn that you can turn it by hand. The lining should offer a resistance of at least 1.5 Nm. The nut should be replaced after it has been put on approx. 10 times.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Check the cutting attachment for damage or cracks. A damaged cutting attachment should always be replaced. A correctly sharpened blade is essential for working efficiently and to avoid unnecessary wear to the blade and clearing saw. Sharpening grass cutters and grass blades • See the cutting attachment packaging for correct sharpening instructions. Sharpen blades and cutters using a single-cut flat file. • Sharpen all edges equally to maintain the balance of the blade.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Trimmer head IMPORTANT! Always ensure the trimmer cord is wound tightly and evenly around the drum, otherwise the machine will generate harmful vibration. • Only use the recommended trimmer heads and trimmer cords. These have been tested by the manufacturer to suit a particular engine size. This is especially important when a fully automatic trimmer head is used. Only use the recommended cutting attachment. See the chapter on Technical data.
ASSEMBLY Fitting the handlebar • Remove the screw at the rear of the throttle handle. • Slide the throttle handle onto the right side of the handlebar, (see diagram). the machine is in a comfortable working position when it hangs from the harness. Tighten the knob. Transport position, handlebar • Align the screw hole in the throttle handle with the hole in the handlebar. • Refit the screw in the hole in the rear of the throttle handle. • Screw the screw through the handle and handlebar.
ASSEMBLY Fitting blades and trimmer heads ! ! WARNING! When fitting the cutting attachment it is extremely important that the raised section on the drive disc/support flange engages correctly in the centre hole of the cutting attachment. If the cutting attachment is fitted incorrectly it can result in serious and/or fatal personal injury. • Turn the blade shaft until one of the holes in the drive disc aligns with the corresponding hole in the gear housing.
ASSEMBLY where you should operate the socket spanner when loosening or tightening the nut. CAUTION! Always use the recommended guard for the cutting attachment you are using. See chapter on Technical data. G F D Fitting the trimmer guard and trimmer head Trimmy SII B • C • Fit the drive disc (B) on the output shaft. • Turn the blade shaft until one of the holes in the drive disc aligns with the corresponding hole in the gear housing. • Insert the locking pin (C) in the hole to lock the shaft.
ASSEMBLY Fitting other guards and cutting attachments • Fit the trimmer guard/combination guard (A) intended for use with the trimmer head/plastic blades. CAUTION! Ensure that the guard extension is fitted. Hang the trimmer guard/combination guard (A) on the two hooks on the plate holder (M). Bend the guard around the shaft and tighten it with the bolt (L) on the opposite side of the shaft. Use the locking pin (C). Place the locking pin in the groove on the screw head and tighten. See diagram.
ASSEMBLY Correct height 1 Forestry clearing Adjust the support strap so that the support hook is around 10 cm below your hip. The blade should be angled forward a little. 2 Grass clearing The support hook should hang around 20 cm below your hip so that the blade is parallel to the ground. Correct balance 1 Forestry clearing Move the suspension ring on the machine forward or backward. It is easier to avoid sawing into the ground if the blade is balanced a few dm above the ground.
FUEL HANDLING Fuel safety Gasoline Never start the machine: 1 If you have spilled fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and allow remaining fuel to evaporate. 2 If you have spilled fuel on yourself or your clothes, change your clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water. 3 If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.
FUEL HANDLING Fueling Mixing • Always mix the gasoline and oil in a clean container intended for fuel. • Always start by filling half the amount of the gasoline to be used. Then add the entire amount of oil. Mix (shake) the fuel mixture. Add the remaining amount of gasoline. • ! Mix (shake) the fuel mixture thoroughly before filling the machine’s fuel tank. WARNING! Taking the following precautions, will lessen the risk of fire: Do not smoke or place hot objects near fuel.
STARTING AND STOPPING Check before starting trimmer guard if they have been exposed to impact or are cracked. For safety reasons follow these recommendations! • Check the blade to ensure that no cracks have formed at the bottom of the teeth or by the centre hole. The most common reason why cracks are formed is that sharp corners have been formed at the bottom of the teeth while sharpening or that the blade has been used with dull teeth. Discard a blade if cracks are found.
STARTING AND STOPPING Primer bulb: Press the air purge repeatedly until fuel begins to fill the bulb. The bulb need not be completely filled. 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.

WORKING TECHNIQUES General working instructions 5 Take great care when cutting a tree that is under tension. A tree that is under tension may spring back to its normal position before or after being cut. If you position yourself incorrectly or make the cut in the wrong place the tree may hit you or the machine and cause you to lose control. Both situations can cause serious personal injury. 6 Keep a good balance and a firm foothold. 7 Always hold the machine with both hands.
WORKING TECHNIQUES The ABC of clearing • Always use the correct equipment. • Make sure the equipment is well adjusted. • Follow the safety precautions. • Organise your work carefully. • Always use full throttle when starting to cut with the blade. • Always use sharp blades. • Avoid stones. • Control the felling direction (take advantage of the wind).
WORKING TECHNIQUES 3 o’clock and 5 o’clock so that the direction of rotation of the blade pushes the bottom of the tree to the left. conditions, so that cleared stems fall in the cleared area of the stand. • To fell a tree forwards, the bottom of the tree should be pulled backwards. Pull the blade backwards with a quick, firm movement. • Large stems must be cut from two sides. First determine which direction the stem will fall. Make the first cut on the felling side.
WORKING TECHNIQUES Brush cutting with a saw blade • Thin stems and brush are mown down. Work with a sawing movement, swinging sideways. • Try to cut several stems in a single sawing movement. • With groups of hardwood stems, first clear around the group. Start by cutting the stems high up around the outside of the group to avoid jamming. Then cut the stems to the required height. Now try to reach in with the blade and cut from the centre of the group.
WORKING TECHNIQUES Cutting • The trimmer is ideal for cutting grass that is difficult to reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the cord parallel to the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the lawn and damage the tool. • Do not allow the trimmer head to constantly come into contact with the ground during normal cutting. Constant contact of this type can cause damage and wear to the trimmer head.
MAINTENANCE Carburetor Your Jonsered product has been designed and manufactured to specifications that reduce harmful exhaust fumes. The engine will be run in after it has used 8-10 tanks of fuel. To ensure that the engine runs at peak performance and produces as little harmful exhaust fumes as possible after the running-in period, ask your dealer/service workshop (which has a rev counter for this purpose) to adjust your carburettor.
MAINTENANCE Low speed jet L High speed jet H Try to find the highest idling speed, turning the low speed needle L clockwise respectively counter-clockwise. When the highest speed has been found, turn the low speed needle L 1/4 turn counter-clockwise. The high speed jet H affects the engine power, speed, temperature and fuel consumption. If the high speed jet H is set too lean (screwed in too far) the engine speed will be too high and cause engine damage.
MAINTENANCE this screw (4 mm Allen screw) to increase or decrease the start throttle speed. On mufflers without a catalytic converter the screen should be cleaned weekly, or replaced if necessary. On mufflers fitted with a catalytic converter the screen should be checked, and if necessary cleaned, monthly. If the screen is damaged it should be replaced. If the screen is frequently blocked, this can be a sign that the performance of the catalytic converter is impaired.
MAINTENANCE Bevel gear Oiling the air filter The bevel gear is filled with the right amount of grease at the factory. However, before using the machine you should check that the bevel gear is filled 3/4 full with grease. Use JONSERED special grease. Always use special filter oil. Filter oil contains a solvent to make it spread evenly through the filter. You should therefore avoid skin contact. Put the filter in a plastic bag and pour the filter oil over it. Knead the plastic bag to distribute the oil.
