s safety equipment, 
its purpose, and how checks and maintenance should be 
carried out to ensure that it operates correctly. See the 
”What is what?” section to locate where this equipment is

Thr
 
ottle lockout
 
The throttle loc
 
kout is designed to prevent accidental 
operation of the throttle control. When you press the lock 
(A) (i.e. when you grasp the handle) it releases the throttle 
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.
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.
See instructions under the heading Start. Start the hedge 
trimmer and apply full throttle. Release the throttle trigger 
and check that the blades stop and remain stationary. If 
the blades move when the throttle trigger is in the idle 
IMPORTANT!
All servicing and repair work on the machine requires 
special training. This is especially true of the machine
 
 
safety equipment. If your machine fails any of the 
checks described below you must contact your service 
agent. When you buy any of our products we guarantee 
the availability of professional repairs and service. If the

ask him for the address of your nearest service agent.
