Check that all nuts and screws are tight.
Make sure the gear housing is lubricated correctly. 
See instructions under the heading Gear housing.
Check that the cutting attachment always stops when 
the engine is idling.
Only use the machine for the purpose it was intended 
for.

Starting and stopping
Starting
Primer bulb: Press the air purge repeatedly until fuel 
begins to fill the bulb. The bulb need not be completely 
filled.
Choke: Set the choke control in the choke position.
Hold the body of the machine on the ground using your 
left hand (CAUTION! Not with your foot!). Grip the starter 
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.
Push the choke control back to its original position as 
soon as the engine fires, and continue trying to start until 
the engine starts. 
CAUTION!  Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and 
do not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully 
extended. This can damage the machine.
CAUTION!  Do not put any part of your body in marked 
area. Contact can result in burns to the skin, or electrical 
shock if the spark plug cap has been damaged. Always 
!
WARNING! The complete clutch cover 
and shaft must be fitted before the 
machine is started, otherwise the clutch 
can come loose and cause personal 
injury.
Always move the machine about 3 
metres from the refuelling position 
before starting. Place the machine on a 
firm surface. Remember that the blades 
may start to move when the engine is 
started. Make sure the blades cannot 
come into contact with any object. Make 
sure that no unauthorised persons are in 
the working area, otherwise there is a 
risk of serious personal injury.
The safety distance is 15 metres.
