The safety hood blade will become blunt over time, we therefore
recommend replacing the blade with a new one or re-sharpening
it at the end of every season.
To re-sharpen the blade, clamp the safety hood blade securely in
a vice or clamp and undo the screw which holds the blade. A flat
file should be used when re-sharpening the blade, ensuring you
don’t alter the angle, and file in one direction only.
An unbalanced blade will cause the brush cutter to vibrate
violently and may result in an accident or injury to the operator.
Change and clean the spark plug
1. Once the engine has cooled, remove the spark plug using the
socket spanner supplied.
2. Clean the plug with a wire brush.
3. Using a feeler gauge, set the gap to 0.5-0.7mm.
4. Install the spark plug carefully by hand to avoid cross-
threading.
