CUTTING EQUIPMENT
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The section describes how through correct maintenance and through using the right type of cutting equipment you
can reduce the machine's tendency to kickback, obtain maximum clearing capacity and increase the service life of
the cutting equipment.
• Only use the cutting and guard equipment we recommend!
• Refer to the instructions for the cutting equipment for the correct winding of cord and for the selection of the right
cord diameter.
• Keep the blade's teeth well and correctly sharpened! Follow our recommendations. Also refer to the instructions
on the blade packaging.
WARNING!
Incorrect cutting equipment or an incorrectly sharpened blade increases the risk of kickback.
Filing the blade
The blades are sharpened using a single cut flat file.
Sharpen all edges equally to maintain the balance of the blade.
Always stop the engine before starting work on any part of the cutting equipment. This continues to rotate even after
the throttle has been released. Ensure that the cutting equipment has stopped completely and remove the cable
from the spark plug before you start to work on it.
Trimmer head
Only use a trimmer head and trimmer cord that is recommended.
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 cutting equipment we recommend!
Generally smaller machines require a small trimmer head and vice versa.
This is because when clearing using a cord the engine must throw out the
cord radially from the trimmer head and also meet resistance from the grass
being cleared.
The length of the cord is also important. A longer cord requires greater engine
power than a shorter cord of the same diameter.
Make sure the knife positioned on the trimmer guard is intact. This is used to
cut the cord to the correct length.
To increase the life of the cord it can be soaked in water for a few days.
This will make the line tougher and it will keep longer.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Always ensure the trimmer cord is wound tightly and evenly around the drum, otherwise harmful vibrations will occur.
