Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle setting 
when the throttle lockout is released.

•

Press the throttle lockout and make sure it returns to its 
original position when you release it.

Check that the throttle control and throttle lockout move 
freely and that the return springs work properly.

•

Start the power cutter and apply full throttle. Release the 
throttle control and check that the cutting blade stops and 
remains stationary. If the cutting blade rotates when the 
throttle is in the idle position you should check the 
carburettor’s idle adjustment. See instructions under the 
heading Maintenance.

Never use a defective guard or a guard that has not been 
fitted correctly.

Check that the guard is complete and without any cracks or 
deformations.

•

A power cutter is designed to cut hard materials, such as 
masonry. Observe the increased risk of kickback when 
cutting soft materials. See instructions under the heading 
How to avoid kickback.

•

Do not use the power cutter until you have read the entire 
contents of this Operator’s Manual. 
All servicing, in addition to the points listed in the section 
”Control, maintenance and service of the power cutter’s 
safety equipment”, should be carried out by trained 
service specialists.

•

Never use the machine if you are tired, if you have drunk 
alcohol, or if you are taking medication that could affect 
your vision, your judgement or your co-ordination.

•

Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions 
under the heading Personal protective equipment.

•

Never use a machine that has been modified in any way 
from its original specification.

•

Never use a machine that is faulty. Carry out the checks, 
maintenance and service instructions described in this 
manual. Some maintenance and service measures must 
be carried out by trained and qualified specialists. See 
instructions under the heading Maintenance.

•

Never allow anyone else to use the machine without first 
ensuring that they have understood the contents of the 
operator’s manual.

•

Never use the machine indoors. Be aware of the dangers 
of inhaling the engine’s exhaust fumes.

Do not store or transport the power cutter with the cutting 
blade fitted.

Store the power cutter in a lockable area so that it is out of 
reach of children and unauthorised persons.

All blades should be removed from the cutter after use and 
stored carefully. Store cutting blades in dry, frost free 
conditions.

Special care should be taken with abrasive discs. Abrasive 
discs must be stored on a flat, level surface. If blades are 
supplied with a backing pad then a spacer should be used to 
keep them flat. If an abrasive disc is stored in humid 
conditions, this can cause imbalance and result in injury.

Inspect new blades for transport or storage damage.
