Replace faulty silencers.

Before using, always visually inspect to see

that the blades, blade bolts and cutter

assembly are not worn or damaged. Replace

worn or damaged blades and bolts in sets to

preserve balance.

Use only manufacturer-recommended

replacement parts and accessories.

Operation

Do not operate the engine in a confined

space where dangerous carbon monoxide

fumes can collect. Breathing exhaust fumes

can be fatal.

Edge only in daylight or in good artificial light.

Always be sure of your footing on slopes.

Walk, never run.

Use extreme caution when reversing or

pulling the edger toward you.

Make sure the blade has stopped before

crossing surfaces other than grass and when

transporting the edger to and from the area to

be edged.

Never operate the edger with defective,

missing or incorrectly fitted guards.

Do not change the engine governor settings

or overspeed the engine.

Start the engine or switch on the motor

carefully according to instructions and with

feet well away from the blade(s).

Do not tilt when starting the engine or

switching on the motor, unless the edger has

to be tilted for starting. In this case, do not tilt

it more than absolutely necessary and lift only

the part which is away from the operator.

Do not start the engine when a bystander is

standing in front of the blade(s).

Do not put hands or feet near or under

rotating parts.

Always switch off the electric motor and

disconnect from main or stop the fuel

powered engine:

• before clearing blockages;

• before checking, cleaning or working on

the blade(s);

• after striking a foreign object: inspect the

blade(s) for damage and make repairs

before restarting and operating the

edger;

• if edger starts to vibrate abnormally

(check immediately).

Stop the engine:

• whenever you leave the edger;

• before refuelling.

Reduce the throttle setting during engine run-

out and, if the engine is provided with a shut-

off valve, turn the fuel off at the conclusion of

edging.

Maintenance and storage

a. Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to

be sure the equipment is in safe working

conditions.

b. Never store the equipment with petrol in

the tank inside a building where fumes

may reach an open flame or spark.

c. Allow the engine to cool before storing in

any enclosure.

d. To reduce the fire hazard, keep the

engine, silencer, battery compartment,

and petrol storage area free of grass,

leaves or excessive grease.

e. Replace worn or damaged parts.

f. If the fuel tank has to be drained, do this

outdoors.

g. Do not attempt to repair the machine

unless you are competent to do so.

h. Use only manufacturer-recommended

replacement parts and accessories.

WARNING: Fuel is highly

flammable. Take the following

precautions:

1. Store fuel in containers

specifically designed for this

purpose.

2. Refuel outdoors only and do

not smoke while refuelling.

3. Add fuel before starting the

engine. Never remove the

cap of the fuel tank or add

petrol while the engine is

running or when the engine

is hot.

4. Avoid spillage: if petrol is

spilled, do not attempt to

start the engine but move

the machine away from the

area of spillage and avoid

creating any source of

ignition until petrol vapors

have dissipated.

5. Tighten all fuel tank and

container caps securely.
