9.2 Safety lock
Warning: Stop using the trimmer if the safety lock is defective.
Safety lock is the device which stops the throttle
lever from being activated unintentionally. If you
push the safety lock, you will activate the throttle
lever.
Safety lock:
 Check that the throttle lever does not move if you do not push the safety lock.
 Check that the throttle lever moves if you activate or release it while pushing the safety
lock.
 Check that the safety lock returns to its original position if you take your hand from safety
lock.
 If these checks reveal any defects, contact your nearest dealer and ask to have them
repaired.
9.3 Air cleaner
Release the air cleaner cover and remove the
dust.
If the element is dirty, clean it by tapping it or by
blowing away the dirt.
If the element is bent or damaged, replace it.
After you have cleaned the element reattach it to
the cleaner body with the stamp on the outside
(facing the cleaner cover).
After that, replace the cleaner cover.
Important: a clogged air cleaner reduces engine performance. Operating with no element or
with a bent or damaged element causes irregular wear and tear of the engine mechanism.
9.4 Air cooling
This engine is air-cooled. Dust clogging up the air cooling inlet port and the cylinder fins will
cause the engine to overheat. Periodically check and clean the cylinder fins after removing
the air cleaner and the cylinder cover.
9.5 Sparking Plug
Starting problems and misfiring are often caused
by a fouled sparking plug. Periodically clean the
sparking plug, and replace with a new one as and
when required.
