FS 400, FS 450
English

Some machine versions are equipped 
with a throttle cable adjuster on the 
control handle.
A properly adjusted throttle cable is the 
precondition for correct operation in the 
full throttle, starting throttle and idle 
positions.
Adjust the throttle cable only after the 
unit is fully assembled – the control 
handle must be in the normal operating 
position.
N Use a suitable tool to push the slide 
to the end of the slot (see 
illustration).
N Press down the throttle trigger 
lockout (1) and squeeze the throttle 
trigger (2) (full throttle) – this sets 
the throttle cable correctly.
Use the Right Deflector

heads only and must therefore be 
mounted before fitting a mowing head.

skirt and line limiter blade, see 
"Mounting Skirt and Blade".
