SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to
the machine.
• If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark
arrestor mesh then it should be cleaned regularly. A
blocked mesh causes the engine to overheat, which can
lead to serious damage. Never use a muffler with a
defective spark arrestor mesh.
Cutting equipment
This section describes how to choose and maintain your
cutting equipment in order to:
• Obtain maximum cutting performance.
• Extend the life of cutting equipment.
General rules
1 Only use cutting attachments with the guards we
recommend! See the chapter on Technical data.
2 Check the cutting attachment for damage or cracks. A
damaged cutting attachment should always be replaced.
Locking nut
• When fitting, tighten the nut in the opposite direction to the
direction of rotation of the cutting attachment. To remove
it, undo the nut in the same direction as the cutting
attachment rotates. (CAUTION! The nut has a left-hand
thread.)
• Tighten the nut using the socket spanner. 35-50 Nm (3.5-
5 kpm).
CAUTION! The nylon lining inside the locking nut must not be
so worn that you can turn it by hand. The lining should offer a
resistance of at least 1.5 Nm. The nut should be replaced
after it has been put on approx. 10 times.

WARNING! Never use a machine with faulty
safety equipment. The machine’s safety
equipment must be checked and maintained
as described in this section. If your machine
fails any of these checks contact your
service agent to get it repaired.
